Mike Rayburn is an inspirational Hall of Fame Speaker, two-time TED Talk presenter, a member of the exclusive “Speakers Roundtable,” three-time Carnegie Hall headliner, and feature artist on Sirius/XM radio.

Rayburn teaches innovation, performance and possibility thinking… but he teaches using guitar and comedy (rather than power point) so it’s a lot more fun!

As an innovative entrepreneur, Mike has been featured in NewsweekUSA Today, Billboard, Gig, American Entertainement and Successful Meetings magazines, and has performed more than 5,000 presentations in 27 countries.

Rayburn is now one of the first speakers in the world to offer hologram live performance with two-way engagement anywhere in the world from capture/broadcast studio in Los Angeles. Don’t just talk about innovation, let’s show it! Call us for details. 

Rayburn says, “Content is critical. Mine has changed countless lives, businesses and bottom lines. But content doesn’t change people. What changes people is the experience of that content, and THAT is my expertise. I will make this unforgettable for your teams.”

THE WHAT IF? KEYNOTE EXPERIENCE

The “What If…?” Experience is Mike’s transformational, hilarious keynote presentation. In it Mike uses his amazing guitar work and hilarious comedy as a metaphor, to illustrate three tools designed to turn your team into an army of innovators with the peak performance skills to transcend the status quo to stop managing change, and lead by creating change. Oh… and they’ll laugh so hard it hurts!

Every major invention, accomplishment and victory in human history began with the simple, almost childlike curiosity of a “What If…?” question. So, why isn’t your team asking this daily? And what if they were? After Mike’s presentation your team will look at problems and impossibilities and instead of turning away, they’ll instead ask, “What if we could? I know we can’t, but what if WE could?” They will set inspirational goals, perform like virtuosos, and achieve transformational results because of it.

Your Audience Will Learn:

  • Three simple, powerful, tools you can use immediately and forever to access your gold mine of unrealized potential; the tools which took Mike from playing bars to Carnegie Hall.
  • That managing change is not only stupid, it’s dangerous; you’ll learn how to stop managing change and start creating change; how to define the curve rather than follow it.
  • The most powerful motivational force on this planet. (Hint… it is not power, sex, money, or fame).
