John K. Coyle Bio: International Design Thinking & Innovation Keynote Speaker

John K. Coyle’s popularity as an international keynote speaker is in some ways despite his accolades. In a sea of sameness with a seemingly infinite number of elite performers, coaches, and executives repeating the same adages about perseverance, leadership, or “time management,” John is the only person in the world speaking about TIME MASTERY. As with his other talks about innovation, resiliency, and strengths, John relies on his Design Thinking expertise to re-frame commonly asked questions and answer them in mind-bending new ways.

Superseding his achievements is John’s mastery of the art of storytelling. John frames his talks through the lens of the Hero’s Journey (or “monomyth”) while elegantly mixing in data-driven frameworks based on the very latest research and science. John has an extensive network of leaders in their fields who have contributed to his talks and books - including David Eagleman, David Kelley, Tom Kelley, Steven Kotler, Chip Conley, Dave Evans, Daniel Coyle, Moran Cerf, and others. John leaves his audiences both empowered and inspired to make significant and lasting changes.

John loves to spend time with his audiences and clients and is known for bringing his homegrown Trinidad Moruga Scorpion peppers to events for a sample tasting. He also brings his Olympic silver medal which he passes around. Finally, his manager Monica makes everything seamless and easy. Hire John - you won’t regret it.
