Dan Thurmon

Keynote Speaker: Motivational Change Management & Transformation Speaker; Peak Performance Expert & Author of "Off Balance on Purpose"

Dan Thurmon Biography

Dan Thurmon is the founder and President of Motivation Works, Inc, a company that helps leaders and their organizations move confidently through change and transformation, so they become, achieve, and contribute MORE.

Thurmon is an expert speaker and performer, as well as a writer and content producer. He’s authored two books: “Success in Action” and “Off Balance On Purpose,” and has delivered thousands of presentations across six continents for audiences including world leaders, Fortune 500 companies, entrepreneurs, educators, and even troops on the front lines of battle in Iraq and Afghanistan. Thurmon's clients include Bank of America, Coca-Cola, Delta Airlines, Honeywell, Johnson & Johnson, Kraft, Marriott, Microsoft, Procter & Gamble, Prudential, State Farm, and Walmart.

Thurmon has served as the President of the National Speakers Association. During his tenure, he led the Board of Directors and the 3,000+ member organization through a critical transformation, which included new governance; new mission, vision, and values; higher member value; and greater financial accountability. An honor only to have been received by fewer than 200 living speakers, Thurmon was inducted into the prestigious Speaker Hall of Fame in 2011.

Along with his speeches and books, Thurmon produces an ongoing, weekly video-coaching series and podcast in which he shares leadership principles and life-enhancement strategies in under three minutes. Thurmon and his teenage daughter, Maggie, have become social media sensations on TikTok. Several of their videos have been viewed more than 30 million times, and their personal channel has well over a million subscribers. Their creative and enthusiastic content resonates strongly with an audience that spans the world.

As a means of financing his degree in Business at the University of Georgia, Thurmon built his first company, a live entertainment firm, in the late 1980s. In the mid-1990s, Thurmon changed his focus from live entertainment to corporate education, so he could more fully use his knowledge about peak performance and help businesses succeed at a much higher level.

Thurmon is a health and fitness advocate. In his 50s, he continues to train and perform advanced acrobatics, and enjoys active hobbies such as golf, mountain unicycling, and the flying trapeze.

Positive CHAOS

We're living in a time where "change" has become "CHAOS." Events that seem unpredictable and out of our control can create an environment of anxious overwhelming stress. Or, you can leverage today's CHAOS into breakthroughs of understanding and exponential future results.

Dan will teach you the truth about CHAOS. You'll gain insights and tools to transform your CHAOS from a negative state to a strategic advantage. Learn to see clear patterns in what now appears random, and take intentional action to shape them for your benefit!

  • Understand and use the principles of Chaos Theory in order to take more confident action during uncertain times.
  • Identify existing patterns within seemingly random or unpredictable events, or within consistent recurring similar situations and obstacles.
  • Shape those patterns more intentionally to create dramatically better future results.

Off Balance On Purpose – Improving Work-Life Alignment

The incredible challenges of COVID have impacted every aspect of how we live and how we work. It's now crystal clear that there isn't a "work life" and a "home life." You get ONE life, and improvement starts with handling what matters most.

When we recognize what's necessary and initiate meaningful changes, you are living Off Balance On Purpose. You are also more successful, productive, and fulfilled.

This keynote will help you embrace lifelong learning and stretch into the next opportunity, leveraging your past experience into present action and future success. Dan amplifies his messages with exciting stunts and interaction, making the learning memorable. Your audience will talk about this presentation for years to come!

As a result of attending this program attendees will:

  • Know how to act with confidence, even when it's uncomfortable.
  • Have a model to align personal growth to professional excellence.
