appeared in numerous shows throughout the Asheville area and beyond, telling personal
stories filled with angst, drama and a healthy dose of humor. Chuck’s legacy is Men’s Wisdom Works,
men’s groups he created for aging and retired men. Chuck’s stories reflect life’s disappointments, joy’s
and mostly hope. Prior to retiring from a career as a seminar leader and organizational consultant,
Chuck wove stories into his classes and consulting, to bring organizational and management theory into
real life. Chuck attended The George Washington University and earned a bachelor’s degree in business
management from The Union Institute/University. He is a member of The Storytelling Network, The
