Ryan McCarty Reviews

  • One of the most life-changing moments of my life was going to hear Ryan McCarty speak. Ryan’s experiences as a preacher and leader show powerful people how to harness the heart to lift organizations and provide a sustainable system that builds the community. Ryan is in my thoughts each day as I develop my organization to not only provide great products but also show we have a soul. Ryan teaches that when you climb the ladder of success, reaching back down and pulling other people up is our duty and we all must find a way to do it. Culture of Good is a permanent part of our organization.
    President, Scooch - Dec 05 2018

  • Authentic, compassionate and energetic…Ryan McCarty joined the stage at the Small Giants Summit in Denver to share his personal story with authenticity and genuineness. He described how his childhood & upbringing taught him to bring love, kindness & a sense of community into the workplace, building what’s now called a Culture of Good.
    Executive Director, Small Giants Community - Dec 05 2018

  • In my role designing business conferences I saw about 150 speakers a year. Ryan isn’t just one of the best speakers I’ve seen, he is also one of the most passionate and genuine human beings. Few people grasp the essence of culture the way he does and even less have his ability to inspire an audience. He is a masterful storyteller who helps others make a difference. No one can change the world in an hour – but Ryan ignites a spark in all those who see him.
    Principal and LEGO(r)SERIOUS PLAY(r) Facilitator at Idea Exchange - Dec 05 2018

  • As a conference producer, I hear so many presenters, I often get numb to the narratives. However, Ryan is one speaker that stands out above the rest. I love his message, his passion and his commitment. He is truly dedicated to spreading a culture of good. I believe our senior exec group really identified with Ryan’s talk and were left inspired to build a culture where their employees can create success for the company and the community at the same time. I could listen to Ryan for hours!
    Director of Programming NTCA-The Rural Broadband Association - Mar 19 2018
