Juan's impact was so memorable the first time I saw him speak that he immediately came to mind years later when I needed a guest speaker for an event. Almost a month after his talk at our sales kickoff, my team members are still referencing concepts that Juan gave us. I can see evidence of the significant impression that Juan made in my day-to-day, not only in how my staff shows up, but in my own mindset.

Juan is the antidote to the fear and uncertainty that comes with organizational transformation. As a senior leader of a large organization, I have had the opportunity to hear many of the world’s great speakers. Juan has been the only one to hit home on likely the most important topic for leaders today, confidence. Our group came away not just with motivation, but with real tools to elevate their confidence and perform their best. Our leaders still quote his presentation when talking about important development topics, and he has left a lasting impression on our group. We will definitely hire him again for other teams in our organization.”

Juan’s session was outstanding! He was rated #1 in our post-conference survey for content, and attendees gave him fantastic reviews. The keynote address was incredibly meaningful and left a lasting impact. His personal story and insights resonated deeply.
