Bob will show audiences that their own path to success will be unique to them, and defined not by how they compare to others, but how they measure up to their own potential.
Keynote by Bob Sellers:
Bob Sellers is driven by a belief that America’s governing system has fallen short over the past three decades — and that, as a result, too many people have lost faith in the American Dream. Trust in institutions has eroded, opportunity feels increasingly out of reach, and many Americans believe the system no longer works for those who play by the rules.
Drawing on more than 25 years as an Emmy-winning journalist covering Washington, Wall Street, and the global economy — as well as firsthand experience inside the financial markets — Bob examines how policy decisions, political incentives, and economic realities have combined to widen the gap between promise and reality. He looks beyond partisan talking points to identify what is truly broken, why it happened, and who has been left behind.
Most importantly, Bob focuses on solutions, with the belief that the American Dream is NOT dead but needs to be opened up to more people who aspire to be part of that mythical “City on the Hill” that Ronald Reagan described. In Restoring the American Dream, Bob outlines practical, real-world steps to rebuild accountability in government, restore opportunity in the economy, and renew confidence in a system that once again rewards hard work, responsibility, and ambition.
