Greg Bennick Global Keynote Speaker, Interactive Comedian, Event Emcee

Greg is fascinated by gravity as a metaphor: by dropping objects he learns constantly to FAIL BETTER. What do we learn about success from our failures? The Seattle Times called him “A juggler of objects and concepts.” What do you learn about success from a path where the journey is filled with mistakes and failure? You learn focus and courage. Greg shows you the way.

(Perfect for any group looking to enhance positive mental attitude among their team members and looking to laugh throughout a presentation)

Developing community is about strengthening teams from within. For Greg, touring and exploring the world for thirty years has taught him about CREATIVITY, COMMUNITY, and USING COMEDY to channel energy in positive directions. Your work, personal, and local communities need every voice to thrive. Learn the benefits, and discover powerful new perspectives on teamwork through comedic approaches on self esteem and connectedness.

(Perfect for all organizations who truly value their people and who are interested in energetic new ideas)

Want to change the world in which you work and live but aren’t sure how? Want to transform your workplace environment and implement new ideas? Let's look at the roadblocks which prevent those things from happening and then blast through them.

(Perfect for any group with a CSR focus, those interested in change and transformation...and also for colleges / universities)

Change is an inevitability, and as long as we are in the right mindset, we will be ready for anything and prepared to take action. As a juggler for almost thirty years, Greg is an expert at change: every ball flies in a different direction. How do we manage change? What perspectives to we need? Using laughter and entertainment as a vehicle, Greg delivers answers to these important questions in his incredible keynote. 

(Learning points include new perspectives on ‘dropping the ball’™ and failure; how to continue even in the midst of setbacks; and perspectives on the creative process itself and the peaks and valleys it brings.)

The success of any organization is dependent on how its people work together. In this keynote, Greg uses his proven techniques of audience participation to demonstrate how effective we can be when we work together. but from the perspective of knowing ourselves. How can we transform being let down by others in the past to being inspired to try again in order to work together effectively? Teamwork demands vigilance, patience, commitment, and determination. Most importantly, it’s teamwork WITH the people we serve not in opposition to them that yields truly sustainable alliances. 

(Learning points: self esteem and its role in our interactions; from where do interpersonal conflicts emerge; and how to resolve those conflicts when they flare up.)

We often think of leaders as having powerful voices, but the best and brightest leaders are actually the greatest listeners. We explore, through audience participation and laughter, the core concepts of being an effective listener as part of a team and how that leads to outstanding leadership. Greg’s real life experience with leadership includes the World Leaders Project, an initiative Greg started that had him meeting face to face with world leaders to discuss dynamics of power, control, and effective balance. You need a speaker who talks the talk and walks the walk. And one who can be funny in the midst of important ideas. Greg is all of those in one.

(Perfect for events themed to leadership, management, organizational dynamics, Human Resources)

This keynote is for those who want to leave the world better than how they found it. Greg follows up his words about WHY and HOW you can get involved with making the world a better place...with solid actions: He is the founder of One Hundred For Haiti, a humanitarian relief and development organization focusing on supporting Haitian-led development projects around clean water and building houses. In this position he learned ironically that listening creates every possibility for leadership and success.

Greg's ideas and creative work have been seen on ALL seven continents (a claim that very few if any other speakers can make), and in dozens of countries for tens of thousands of people.

His work globally has inspired thousands, and can do the same for your group.

(Perfect for any group inspired to help transform the lives of others for the better, non-profits, corporate social responsibility events)
