Legends and Luminaries:

A Glimpse Into the Amazing People I’ve Been Blessed Enough to Share the Stage With at Events.

Jeffrey Gitomer: The King of Sales with a Dash of Sass

Imagine a speaker who blends razor-sharp insights with humor that cuts right to the bone. That’s Jeffrey Gitomer (pronounced Git-o-mer). He’s the kind of guy who can turn a crowd of skeptics into eager learners with his street-smart wisdom on sales, customer loyalty, and personal growth. Known for keynotes that are as much stand-up comedy as they are life lessons, Jeffrey doesn’t just talk the talk—he shows you how to walk the walk. His client list? A who’s who of industry titans like Coca-Cola and BMW. If you haven’t picked up one of his books, you’re missing out on some serious game-changing content.

Bob Beaudine: The Power Broker Behind the Curtain

Ever hear of the guy who’s the most influential person in sports you’ve never heard of? Meet Bob Beaudine. As the CEO of Eastman & Beaudine, he’s the mastermind behind top executive placements in the sports and entertainment world. His book, The Power of Who, is a must-read for anyone looking to harness the true power of relationships. From the Today Show to the Wall Street Journal, Bob’s been everywhere.

World-famous conductor of the Boston Philharmonic, Benjamin Zander knows how to orchestrate more than just music—he orchestrates mind-blowing transformations in organizations. His ability to turn the metaphor of the orchestra into a roadmap for success is nothing short of magical.

You might not recognize his face, but you’ve definitely seen his words at the bottom of your Starbucks cup.

If that doesn’t make you rethink the importance of fun, nothing will.

Andy Andrews: The Modern-Day Will Rogers

At Mastery 2008, Andy Andrews left me awestruck with his storytelling prowess. After hearing me do my thing, he gifted me a CEO pack worth a cool grand. Andy has been called a “modern-day Will Rogers,” and with four U.S. Presidents seeking his wisdom, it’s easy to see why. Every minute, somewhere in the world, one of his books is sold.

Every now and then, you meet someone whose mere presence moves you. Rene Godefroy is one of those people. A Haitian immigrant who turned his American Dream into a reality, Rene’s message of personal accountability and change is as powerful as it is simple: “Change Is A Gift!” His story will inspire you to take charge of your own life, no matter where you start. His book “Kick Your Excuses Goodbye” is a must read for everyone that wants to get ahead and make a difference.

Gary Vaynerchuk: The Social Media and Wine Sorcerer

I had the chance to follow Gary Vee in a virtual event, and let me tell you, the man is a social media force of nature. From Jimmy Fallon to Ellen, Gary has been everywhere, and his book Crush It left a lasting mark on my life. If you’re looking to build your personal brand or business, Gary is your go-to guy.

Horst Schulze: The Ritz-Carlton Revolutionary

Horst Schulze isn’t just the former president of Ritz-Carlton—he’s a legend in the luxury hotel industry. I had the nerve-wracking honor of following him on stage at Sales Mastery in 2007. If you’re looking to out-luxe the competition, Horst is the man with the plan.
