Hazard's experiences in the business world have allowed him valuable insight into the workings of organizations and the minds of customers. Most business owners, for instance, believe they have a great relationship with their customers when in fact only twenty per cent really do. Why? Because business owners believe that, when a customer comes in to purchase a product or service, this constitutes a relationship. They assume their customers care about them!

It's this same experience that gives Hazard such great value as a Certified Professional Speaker. "Some of my businesses have failed and that has taught me many important lessons that you don't learn at business school," Hazard says. He drills down success into four key areas: understanding your own personal values, being a visionary leader, solid market positioning, and customer relationships. "The key thing about what I have to share is that I've done it – I'm speaking from experience, the good and the bad."

Troy’s Lessons from the Edge provide businesses with potent and refined tools, all of which have been road tested in real-world situations and none of which you will ever learn about in business school.
