For More Information Call: 877-234-6086
Thirty years ago Charles Petty’s father was
inducted into the National Sports Hall of Fame for
his ability to shoot a gun. Charles entered the
National Speakers Hall of Fame for his ability to
shoot off his mouth-which should give hope to every
parent whose child fails “conduct” in school, as he
did.
His speaking ability has been utilized by over 3200
different clients in 50 states and 14 countries. He
has spoken to educators in 27 states. State
conventions and in-service conferences are his
specialty
In addition to his own teaching, there are many
educators in his immediate family, including his
wife, son, daughter-in-law, brother, sister-in-law
and grandfather. He knows education from both sides
of the desk.
He was reared on a farm in Arkansas and does indeed
know President Clinton. In fact, when President
Clinton was eleven or twelve years old, Dr. Petty
was his rifle instructor at a Boy Scout camp. This
is the man who taught President Clinton to shoot
straight!
Dr. Petty was educated for 22 consecutive years in
Arkansas, Mississippi and Texas, which means he is
well educated or a little slow! He wrote his
doctoral dissertation on “Divorce”. He has been a
counselor, visiting professor, on the staffs of
large corporations and for seven years was on the
senior staff of the North Carolina Governor. He is
President of Family Success Unlimited, located in
Raleigh, NC, and since 1985 all he does is “eat and
speak.”
Dr. Petty is married, has two grown children, four
grandchildren and a grand dog that he promises not
to mention from the platform.

to your message.” Porterville (CA)
