In 2019, Ryan Berman sparked the courage movement that set out to reinvent businesses by galvanizing people, inspiring leaders, and celebrating courageous action in life and business.
Since then, this movement has continued to gain momentum around the country as Ryan has shared his methods with the leaders at Google, Kellogg’s Europe, Snapchat, charity: water, PnC Bank, Kraft Heinz, Logitech, Pledge 1% and many others.
On a larger level beyond marketing, we are witnessing a clarity epidemic before our very eyes, causing catastrophic levels of paralysis that is stymieing growth and splintering cultures. That lack of corporate action is creating internal politics, negativity and, quite often, mass turnover.
But, Ryan believes that being courageous is our ultimate competitive advantage. If 95% of our competition is stuck in freeze or flight, and if we can train our teams to be in that 5% that learns how to fight, then this is a liberating differentiator from the rest of the competitive pack.
Ryan envisions a world where courageous leaders are creating courageous cultures. Those courageous cultures are accepting of courageous ideas and innovation. In essence, any willing being, business, or brand can receive a return on courage. And when they do, they’ll feel it permeating their people, products and corporate purpose. The only way to properly set a goal is to have the right skill set working in tandem with the right mind set; that’s the power of courage.
Leadership Keynote Speaking Topics
Ryan Berman devoted three years interviewing many of the most courageous people: astronauts, Navy SEALs, tornado chasers, and business leaders from Apple, Amazon, Domino’s, Google and Method. He learned that winning companies all shared a common trait: courageousness.
As for the rest? 52% of the Fortune 500 since 2000 are extinct. Half of the S&P 500 are predicted to be replaced in the next decade. Ryan shows his audiences how any team or brand can push through internal paralysis, stand out from the crowd, and earn a serious Return On Courage.
Ryan will tailor his speaking topics to deliver the best keynote message to meet your event and organizational goals. Feel free to reach out to Ryan by email or use the website form to set up a call with him to design a custom presentation. A sample of his business leadership keynote speeches and speaking topics appears below, and includes:
- The 5-Part Plan for Courageous Change in Your Business
- What Brands Can Do Right Now to Earn a Return on Courage
- Identify and Overcome Your Largest Corporate Business Fears to Become a Courage Brand
Virtual Business Event Keynote Speaking
In addition to in-person business events, conferences, workshops, and speaking engagements, Ryan offers speaking engagements via virtual conferences and interactive webinars when your organization or audience is dispersed geographically. Virtual conferences provide an opportunity to reach a greater number of participants, allow two-way sharing of information in real-time, can expand the potential for on-demand participation and can be recorded for later on-demand participation. Virtual business events can replicate in-person engagement among participants and keynote speakers, and even increase direct interaction, through the use of interactive presentations, polls, live chat, Q&A, surveys, networking, social media and more.
Whether you’re looking to create-a-change in yourself or team, Ryan is one of the most sought after presenters who can offer a media-rich experience to create courageous change.
Audiences consider Ryan a top-rated speaker who is confident, entertaining and motivational. He is usually the top speaker at any event and earns standing ovations from attendees at his live appearances. Ryan is a must-see speaker for your event, both in person and virtual event, who will transform your teams and employees with his courageous outlook on their personal and professional lives.
