Eric Chester

Keynote Speaker: Expert on Workplace Culture, Employee Engagement & the Emerging Workforce

Eric Chester Biography

Eric Chester is the premier expert on the emerging workforce. He began his career as a high school business teacher and coach. After six years in the classroom, Chester launched his career as a motivational speaker for students. In the decade that followed, he became one of America's top speakers for youth. He visited hundreds of schools throughout the U.S. and Canada and inspired millions of high school and college students to reach higher and work harder.

Leading companies and organizations soon discovered that Chester had "cracked the code" on the emerging generation and sought out his advice on how they could better connect with the under-30 workforce.

Described by his audiences as "riveting," "mesmerizing," and "electrifying," Chester's speaking style is fast-paced, high-energy, fun, and most importantly, actionable. He doesn't just provide the "want-to" -- he provides solid actionable "how-to" ideas and best practice strategies.

His programs are fluid, teeming with information and strategies, and are impeccably aligned with innovative multimedia technology that visually reinforces tools, concepts and solutions. Whether your event requires a 60 to 90-minute keynote, a half-day workshop, or a full-day seminar, Chester will fully engage your group. They will, in turn, walk away with actionable ideas for creating the kind of workplace cultures where employees of all ages are inspired to work harder, serve better, and stay longer.

His new book "On Fire at Work: How Legendary Leaders Ignite Passion in their People without Burning them Out" is THE resource business leaders, employers and managers on every level in every industry turn to for highly applicable and relevant material.
