Keynote Topics

The Three Keys
To Connection

What might be possible with a true sense of connection in the room? More importantly, what might be possible if people knew how to create more of it?

Distilling more than 10,000 hours spent creating powerful connections with and within his audiences, Peter shares the Three Keys to nurturing connection between your people, their teams, and the clients they engage with.

If you’re ready to break down silos and unify team/association members in a way that not only fosters deeper connections but also drives tangible business outcomes, then this is the experience for you.

Showing Up
Wholeheartedly

How do you find the strength and courage to show up wholeheartedly when facing new challenges?

Peter draws on his experience of surviving and thriving in the music industry to motivate attendees to stay on their path wholeheartedly while remaining open to change and embracing the unexpected. Through his powerful songs, stories and immediately actionable takeaways, Peter pulls attendees in and leaves them inspired to show up with purpose every day.

If your people would benefit from a greater sense of intrinsic motivation, personal leadership, resiliency, (and big dose of joy) this keynote is for you.

We Become
What We Celebrate

If you want to be aligned with your highest values, you need to celebrate them.

Born from years of studying the unexpected and transformative power of celebration, Peter will help you and your teams connect to your greatest success stories — and learn actionable strategies to set the stage to create and celebrate many more.

If you want to unite and strengthen teams, align values, alleviate staff burnout and celebrate your people in a way they haven’t experienced before, this keynote is for you.

Your organization is unique.
Your event should be, too.

Whether you’re going through a full-scale transition, reuniting fragmented colleagues, or celebrating the resilience of a hard-working team, you need a bespoke solution.

That’s why every one of Peter’s offerings is built for you, with you. Using his focused intake and interview process, Peter will make sure your event meets and exceeds your “dream-come-true” scenario. Team members from every level of your organization will see themselves and their stories reflected in an event that seamlessly aligns with your organization’s core values.

In the words of one past client: “His presentation was one of those beautiful, rare moments when an audience got exactly what they didn’t know they needed to hear.”
