    Saturday, Oct. 11: Otis Williams

    Otis Williams is an expert in the Science of Personal Achievement—the ability to turn dreams into reality. He is the founder and President of Otis Williams Limitless, a personal development company that teaches people how to train their fear so they can live their dreams.

    While serving in the U.S. Army, Otis was promoted from a private to a noncommissioned officer, in less than two years, by applying time-tested proven principles, strategies, and techniques he was studying. After receiving an honorable discharge from the military, he began a career in banking.

    Otis has been honored as a YMCA Black Achiever. He is a recipient of the “Profiles in Courage” award. He was named as one of Cincinnati Business Courier’s “Forty Under 40” Young Business Leaders and has been recognized as an Emerging Leader by Applause! Magazine.
