Incredibly refreshing... perfect way to kick off the day.
"Zach's keynote at the ATD Kansas City fall conference was incredibly refreshing. It was the perfect way to kick off the day, and one of my favorite takeaways was the message about letting go of control and leaning in. It really resonated with me as I dedicated the day to personal development. I highly recommend Zach and his ability to wrangle an audience and keep everyone fully engaged!"

...may cause discomfort, but in a very inspiring way!
Zach’s keynote was exactly what we needed to set the tone for the day. He has a way with storytelling that causes everyone to think about how they are showing up for their team in a way that helps everyone saddle their own horse. Zach's storytelling challenges people to think differently and may cause discomfort but in a very inspiring way that moves people forward!

Zach’s keynote literally moved me forward in my profession.
Zach’s message resonated so much that it inspired me to step out of my comfort zone and apply for a challenging new position within my organization. Despite an initial rejection, I proactively reached out to the hiring manager, which led to a valuable discussion about my skills and experience. Although I didn’t get the job, I know what I need to do next. So Zach’s keynote literally moved me forward in my profession.

I highly recommend Zach as a keynote speaker...
“I have had the opportunity to attend multiple presentations by Zach and his challenge to lead others to saddle their own horse has impacted the way I lead in my organization and in my home with my family. We need to expect extraordinary results and help others thrive versus lowering our standards. I also appreciate his analogy of getting ourselves to step into the arena and no more watching from the grandstands. We have to be willing to try new things and take action instead of sitting back and watching others perform. I highly recommend Zach as a keynote speaker as he utilizes his life lessons learned from rodeo and applies them to overcoming barriers and performing at a higher level in your organization and in life.”

I left with more clarity and a fresh perspective on how to lead more effectively and authentically. Coordinating the event with Zach was just as smooth—he was professional, responsive, & a true partner throughout the planning process. He was wonderful to work with & made the entire experience easy from start to finish."
