Keynote Speaker: Entrepreneur, Mindset & Contracting Business Expert; NYT Bestselling Author, "The Power of Consistency"

Weldon Long Biography

Bestselling author, entrepreneur, and mindset expert Weldon Long built his business from the ground up, but his story doesn’t reflect the typical path of the average business owner you would expect to hear.

In 2003, Long walked out of a homeless shelter after serving 13 years in prison. A 9th-grade dropout and three-time convicted felon, he found himself broke and unable to gain employment. Despite his bleak history, in five short years, he had built a company that Inc Magazine selected as one of the fastest-growing privately held companies in America.

Long is the epitome of how mindset can lift one out of seemingly insurmountable circumstances and make it possible to thrive and prosper in the face of adversity. He has enjoyed massive success because of the philosophies that he has developed over time, and today, he is one of the nation’s most powerful and sought-after speakers and motivators. Long enjoys sharing and teaching his Prosperity Mindset and Consistency Selling principles, the very same that catapulted him out of desperation and into phenomenal success.

In addition to his speaking engagements, Long has authored several influential books, including "Consistency Selling: Powerful Sales Results. Every Lead. Every Time." and "The Upside of Fear: How One Man Broke the Cycle of Prison, Poverty, and Addiction," which further explore his philosophies on overcoming adversity and achieving personal and professional greatness. His work, story, and message testify to the power of resilience and the importance of a prosperity mindset in achieving success.

Leadership Excellence

All too often managers, supervisors and other leaders attempt to lead others without first creating a clear vision of future success or gaining personal and professional mastery over themselves. The Power of Consistency for Leadership Excellence is a dynamic and thought provoking keynote that forces an honest personal assessment of our own effectiveness before attempting to lead others. Through a poignant and humorous discussion of how Weldon Long went from starting a company in his living room with zero employees to becoming the CEO of his own INC 5000 company, attendees will learn how to develop characteristics of personal and professional excellence and inspire those attributes in others. As Mr. Long weaves his personal story of triumph over tribulation on his gut wrenching journey from prison, poverty and addiction to becoming a dynamic inspirational leader, attendees will hang on the edge of their seats.

Personal Excellence

Bad things happen to great companies and wonderful people. Unfortunately that's just a fact of life. That's the bad news. The good news is that we are rarely defined by the bad things that come our way. We are defined by the decisions we make about how to deal with the adversity that comes our way in Life and Business. Whether it's a bad economy, a cheap competitor or an unreasonable customer in business or a personal struggle in life,everyone faces challenges. And regardless of the adversity, there are always examples of companies and individuals who are thriving in the face of similar challenges. This dynamic and powerful inspirational keynote is based on Weldon Long's award winning memoir, The Upside of Fear: How one man broke the cycle of prison, poverty and addiction. Attendees will learn how to overcome any business or personal challenge and thrive in the face of adversity. Not only will the audience be inspired to transcend problems, they will learn the powerful formula Mr. Long developed and used to go from "walking the yard" in a high security prison to walking the beaches of Maui.The lessons learned can help any company or individual create financial success and prosperity regardless of the external threat or challenge.
