Nathaniel A. Turner

Keynote Speaker: TED Speaker, Public Intellectual, Author & Humanity Propulsion Engineer Designing Better Lives, Stronger Families, and More Humane Futures

Nathaniel A. Turner Biography

Nathaniel A. Turner is a globally recognized TED Speaker, public intellectual, and author who helps audiences design better lives, stronger families, and more humane futures—intentionally, not accidentally.

Known as the Humanity Propulsion Engineer, Turner blends law, finance, history, human meaning, parenting, and lived experience to challenge how individuals, organizations, and societies define success. A survivor of eight Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), his work is grounded not in theory, but in lived proof, disciplined thinking, and moral clarity. Turner is only the second father in the history of the world, since Lord Chesterfield in 1737, to have letters written to his son published.

Turner is also the creator of The Life Template™, a backward-design framework for intentional living. He first applied this approach in raising his multilingual son, who earned admission to 27 top U.S. universities, received more than $10 million in scholarships and fellowships, and went on to earn a PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University and an MBA in Finance from NYU Stern School of Business—without wealth, legacy status, crushing debt or special advantages.

Today, Turner speaks globally to corporations, universities, nonprofits, and parents on human potential, leadership, education, parenting, and legacy. Underscoring his growing international influence is his role as a featured presenter at the 7th International Conference on Shared Parenting in Lisbon, Portugal.

Provocative, disciplined, and deeply engaging, Turner leaves audiences challenged, inspired, and equipped with a clear framework for becoming better versions of themselves—and for leaving the world better than they found it.
