Work with Clif

Keynote Speaking

Captivate your audience with a poverty to prosperity story that will leave them transformed and inspired to implement life changing skills and insights which will improve their performance, leadership, and wellbeing.  Join the hundreds of event planners who’ve brought this message to over 150,000 participants from across the globe.  Whether an executive leadership offsite for 15 C-suite executives or a large annual conference with thousands of participants, Clif has delivered an unforgettable experience.

At conferences, meetings, or other events, the keynote speech is the best opportunity to make an impact on your audience. It reflects the spirit of the event and condenses the essence of the entire program into a few minutes. This is what a keynote speaker is: he or she is equal parts engaging and thought-provoking, ultimately leaving an indelible impression on listeners. As such, the energy and storytelling evoked during the keynote speech are crucial to a successful conference. These few minutes make or break the event, which is why you should choose a speaker who aims far beyond gaining a loud applause; he or she should be able to inspire change and get people to act — a true public speaker whose message stays with your audience long after the event. Contact Clif below to discuss options if you want to give your audience an experience that will change their lives.

1:1 Coaching/Trusted Advisor

Could you use a trusted advisor; someone who has the experience and insights to help you uncover and transcend limiting beliefs, face and overcome professional and personal challenges, and take your performance to the next level? Long gone are the days when people using executive coaches were seen as low performers on their way out of an organization. The smartest and most successful leaders and senior executives know that having the right people around them makes all the difference in the world. So…who surrounds you? Can they offer you fresh ideas and approaches, or do they simply reinforce existing perspectives? If you’re ready to take your performance, leadership and life to the next level, contact Clif below to discuss options for a bespoke program.  Due to Clif’s intense dedication to every client, he accepts only three clients at a time.
