America’s #1 Breakthrough Speaker, and best-selling author, Brian Biro helps companies, associations, and individuals to reach their maximum potential.
After graduating from Stanford, Brian’s first career was as a swimming coach. He received the prestigious United States Swimming National Coaching Excellence Award, in recognition of his team’s Top 10 National Performance. After gaining his MBA from UCLA, he subsequently rose rapidly to become the VP of Performance Planning for a major transportation company, helping to turn the business around, and quadrupling revenues in record time.
It was this hands-on, transformational role in the transportation company that led to Brian finding his true vocation in life: working as a motivational speaker and team-builder. Brian applies this unique combination of the key learnings from his business experience, extraordinary coaching success, and unparalleled motivational events, to help individuals, businesses, and organizations to prosper and flourish – in fact, to transform. Each of Brian’s presentations is carefully customized to ensure it aligns exactly with the client’s requirements and wishes.

Virtually all of Brian’s business comes through word-of-mouth recommendations, and more of his clients invite him back again and again than any other speaker!
Brian Biro sets out the essential elements of his Breakthrough course and explains just why it is so powerful: “I've been teaching speaking for about 16 years and I know exactly what's most important to you. I have a really passionate desire to give you the best events you've ever had. Number one, I know you want your event to be customized, you don't want it to be flavor of the month, you want it to tie in with everything you're doing. I really work on customization, it's part of the fun for me, I spend time with your leaders, with your team, up in front of the event, asking questions." Brian explains his philosophy of a holistic approach to every individual in his audience. He says, “I believe you are one person, so everything I do has just as much application with your family, with your health, with your personal desires and dreams. Every person has a personal experience, something that really affects them, and so the breakthrough that we'll be dealing with is something that extends beyond the workplace; that makes every individual feel great about you and your organization, because you care about them, they're more than just a number. With a philosophy that people learn best when they are having fun, Brian tries to build this into every performance he gives. He says, “I love to have fun, I love to get people engaged and participating; I also know that when we hear, we forget, when we see we're more likely to remember, but it's when we do that we understand, and so in every event, whether it's a keynote, a full day, a half day, I like to get people off the sidelines and into the game."
Brian Biro’s signature program, The Breakthrough Experience, provides an astonishing introduction to the powerful principles of breakthrough leadership. Brian leads every individual to a window of opportunity where they can break through any of the self-imposed limits, fears, obstacles, habits or doubts which have been shutting off the path to full realization of their potential. At the end of the program teams come together and each member faces the challenge of breaking through an inch thick wooden board symbolizing their other challenges. Once every team member has achieved a breakthrough, they will be closer and more trusting of each other than they have ever been.
Brian’s other programs are also based around the Breakthrough concept. He will show how you can break down the barriers between yourself and your employees to create truly powerful teams and exceptional leadership. He explains how it is vital in challenging times to focus on what can be done and not to waste time and energy on things outside your control.
Breakthrough Leadership
Every single team member is a potential Breakthrough Leader!
No matter what industry you work in, you’re in the breakthrough business. You need to breakthrough with your customers to generate loyalty, satisfaction, and mutually beneficial relationships.

Champions of Change
Lead the change!
In today’s fast-moving world, organizations and individuals constantly need to adapt, innovate, and evolve to remain competitive. But when it comes to change, there are typically three sorts of individuals: - Change Victims who fight, block, or – worse – ignore the need for change - Change Idlers who tolerate change, but who remain reactive and unenthusiastic - Change Champions who anticipate, embrace, and even create change.
If your organization is finding it hard to change, let America’s #1 Breakthrough Speaker Brian Biro show you the way forward. In his dynamic presentation Champions of Change!, Brian explains how to ditch the fear often associated with change, and instead turn the transformation into something hugely positive.

Controlling the Controllables
Focus on what you control, not on what you don’t!
Sometimes, we waste precious resources fretting about things we can’t control. We worry about circumstances, events, or situations that we cannot possibly influence. Ultimately, such behavior achieves nothing, leading to doubts, fears, and disappointment.
Far better to focus our time, energy, and resources on the things that we do control. Why? Because by controlling the controllables – with our effort, energy, and attitude – we can achieve amazing results. We generate momentum and confidence!
This is the philosophy that underpins Controlling the Controllables, an exciting and positive motivational event presented by America’s #1 Breakthrough Speaker Brian Biro. In this fun, informative, and revealing presentation, Brian shows you how to: - Create a “can do” culture of possibility, based on every team member embracing personal responsibility for their actions and approach - Breakthrough the fear of failure, and replace it with an unstoppable determination to constantly improve - Transform burn-out and stress into momentum and extraordinary results - Enhance your character and culture by focusing on the key elements that you can control.
Silos to Synergy
Make the connection!
Does your company suffer from a Silo mentality? Is there a disconnect between different departments, where R&D is alienated from Sales, Ops Management and IT are going in different directions, and Finance doesn’t speak to HR? Worse still, is there a damaging divide and lack of communication between management and staff?
The fact is, all companies work best when everyone is pulling in the same direction, and working as a team.
Organizations only flourish when there is clear communication and enthusiastic co-operation between each and every department. In his enlightening presentation Silos to Synergy, America’s #1 Breakthrough Speaker Brian Biro shows you how to make that connection. Based on his successful real-life leadership experience, business acumen, and 30+ years of helping top companies, Brian shows you how to: - Build a company-wide environment of mutual support, true respect, and greater appreciation of each other - Truly embrace diversity by viewing differences as resources that ignites a possibility-mentality and culture - Increase synergy, sales, and profitability growth - Reclaim the energy, momentum, and results that are lost through the Silo mentality - Deliver best in class communication and co-operation right across your organization - Ingrain a fresh and unique culture of recognition, acknowledgement, appreciation, and kindness.
The ROI of Kindness
Culture eats strategy for breakfast! Culture is the great separator between industry-leading organizations that truly THRIVE and all the others in that industry that simply hope to survive! How can you transform your organizational culture to generate more energy, teamwork, and results? More than 90% of CEOs believe that a vibrant, engaging CULTURE is the number ONE key to lasting success for their organization. Yet, only 15% believe they have successfully built such a uniting culture.
The answer to building a successful culture is surprising. The single-most powerful, uniting, and lasting secret to instill an unstoppable culture is KINDNESS!
In his stimulating presentation The ROI of Kindness, America’s #1 Breakthrough Speaker Brian Biro blows away the myth that kindness is weak in the business realm. The author of the bestselling book The ROI of Kindness, Brian has worked extensively with leading organizations including Kaiser Permanente, Starbucks, and Southwest Airlines, that have risen to the top of their industries by making kindness their foundational value.
As you dive into this surprising, engaging, and empowering presentation, you’ll soon discover that this simple secret, KINDNESS, can transform your culture, your brand, your customer loyalty, and your success in attracting and retaining fantastic people. And prepare to be amazed at how KINDNESS can revitalize your organization, moving your team from fear to freedom, from failure to faith, from ego to we go, and from good to GREAT!
