Former NBA star Walter Bond is a speaker who motivates people through his life story of trials and triumphs. Growing up in Chicago, he always dreamed of playing in the NBA. Though he lacked the natural athletic gifts of many of his peers, through hard work, parental encouragement, and discipline, he achieved his dream, and had an eight-year professional playing career with the Dallas Mavericks, Utah Jazz, and Detroit Pistons. He also spent time as a broadcast analyst for the Minnesota Timberwolves. He later applied the same principles he'd used as a pro-basketball player to achieve great success off the court as an entrepreneur, business owner, and financial analyst. His book, The Off Season for Financial Advisors, is designed to help financial advisors win big. A powerful keynote speaker, Walter Bond transforms his athletic and business savvy into an action-packed inspirational message that will deliver results to your organization, regardless of their circumstances. He spreads positivity through his inspirational story, and shows listeners how they truly can live their dreams.

Mike Abrashoff was the most-junior officer in the Pacific Fleet when he took command of the near-worst performing ship. Twelve months later, the USS Benfold was the best ship in the entire Navy – using the same crew. The story of that stunning transformation has lessons for every organization: leadership matters – and culture is everything. Mike’s written three books – his first, It’s Your Ship, has sold over 1 million copies. His Leadership Roadmap offers clear, battle-tested, and actionable steps. Mike shows people at every level of the organization how to engage and take incremental steps toward change that can make a dramatic difference at work. Mike is clear, “I didn’t turn the ship around – my crew did that.  What I did was to create an environment where they felt safe, empowered and supported. When you do that, anything is possible.”
