About Randy Frazier

Along the way his natural talents as a Leader and Instructor helped him fill numerous additional roles such as: Certified Law Enforcement Officer; Certified EMT Instructor; Certified Self Defense Instructor; lead contact for Critical Incident Stress Debriefings; and work as an exemplary instructor in the field of Hospitality Training.

In 1974 Randy Frazier was part of the first generation of Interpretive Naturalists to be hired by Arkansas State Parks. From the first day it was obvious that he was a perfect fit for the Department's "in house" job description:

Park Naturalist: An Educator passing himself off as an entertainer.

In 1986 he was selected for Class 2 of LeadAR; Arkansas’ premier, two-year Ag-Rural Leadership Program operated by the University of Arkansas Cooperative Extension Service. It's been his pleasure to serve as part of the training cadre for each class since that time and he continues to serve the Alumni organization in many capacities, including a term as Chairman.

By the time of his retirement in 2004, he was speaking for organizations and businesses from coast to coast. Today, he's a Professional Member of the National Speakers Association and has been a featured speaker in 38 States and two foreign countries.

Randy Frazier has been described as a Humorist; an Educator; a Naturalist; a Storyteller; a Poet; a Writer; an Inspirational Speaker; and a part-time country philosopher. His clients include companies such as Entergy; Blue Cross Blue Shield; Tyson; Alltel; SBC; Cingular; Farm Bureau; Acxiom; Delta Regional Authority; Keep America Beautiful and many others. He speaks on a wide range of topics, but he’s most frequently invited to speak on the subjects of Leadership, Change and the Art of Communication.

Randy C. Frazier

Within a few short years he was Superintendent of the Department's largest Environmental Education operation; Pinnacle Mountain State Park.

By the early 1990’s the demand for his speaking and training skills prompted Randy to form Frazier Communications, Inc., and start accepting invitations to speak throughout the mid-south.

Randy says his early work as a Naturalist has served him well; "There's no end to what you can teach folks... as long as they think you're there to entertain them."

Among recognition he has received for his work as a leader and a motivator: The Arkansas Wildlife Federation selected him as their Conservation Educator of the Year, the Arkansas EMT Association has honored him as the State's Emergency Medical Technician of the Year, and he has received both the Director's and Executive Director's Special commendations for Excellence in Training. He was listed in the 1989 edition of Outstanding Young Men of America, and the Arkansas State Employee Association named him as the 1993 Outstanding State Employee. The Arkansas Division of Volunteerism honored him as the 2004 recipient of their Paragon Award, for his servant-leadership in helping to bring about significant improvement in the quality of life for the citizens of Arkansas.
