Whether you need to motivate your sales & service team, improve employee morale, instill strong leadership skills, deal with stress, or embrace change- then Steve Rizzo’s “Common Sense Success Strategies” will take your audience to the next level. As one of his clients said, “Never has my group learned so much and laughed so hard in one sitting!”
Once upon a time, Steve Rizzo was told by a guidance counselor that he didn’t have the intelligence for college. A few years later he was saddled with the dubious high school honor of being voted “Least Likely to Succeed.”
Steve went on to surprise everyone, including himself, by excelling with honors at the university and postgraduate levels. Eventually, Steve even taught English at his old high school and was a counselor for students with behavioral problems, proving once and for all that guidance counselors are not fortune-tellers.
Steve would go on to stellar success as a national headline comedian, and starred in his very own Showtime comedy special, earning him honors as a Showtime Comedy All-Star.
But the surprises didn’t stop there.
At the pinnacle his stand-up career, Steve walked away from comedy to pursue his true purpose and passion—to show people how to shift their focus and way of thinking, to discover more joy and enthusiasm, increased productivity and greater levels of success.
Steve offers more than the usual nuts and bolts on how to succeed. He stresses the importance of enjoying yourself during the process of achieving your goals and building a solid foundation to stand on when all else fails because he absolutely knows that no matter what circumstances we find ourselves in, attitude is everything.
When Steve Rizzo shares his blueprint for success with Fortune 500 companies and associations across the globe, he delivers a powerful message for living an extraordinary life, because he lives the “Common Sense Success Strategies” that has made him a member of prestigious Speakers Hall of Fame—an honor bestowed on fewer than 300 speakers worldwide since 1977.
Steve is the author of the bestselling books Motivate THIS! and Get Your SHIFT Together. He is also a regular contributor for SUCCESS magazine and often called upon as the “go-to” guy on the topic of personal and professional development for many network, cable and radio media outlets.
Your presentation and subsequent coaching and further conversation were met with rave reviews by our team. Everyone agreed that it was our best corporate event yet. It is refreshing to have the chance to hear a powerful and potentially life-altering message while having the opportunity to laugh through it. Your message was especially timely as all of us walked into a market storm this morning. The Coronavirus certainly brings new challenges to our business – but I know our folks will embrace your strategies and persevere during times like this and harness their potential. I also want to thank you for going above and beyond, crafting your program around our company’s values and taking the time to speak with the team members about their specific problems. Steve, Thank You for making a difference!
Steve's program made a profound impact on all of us. The unique blend of humor and direction helped our guests and associates refocus on the reality of going on with life and work. They are now more determined than ever to succeed despite adversities.
I cannot compliment Steve enough for his outstanding presentation. Never in my 19 years of attending and coordinating meetings have I seen a speaker generate such enthusiasm.
Steve Rizzo is the best speaker I have ever heard at any event during my 30 years in business. His presentation was so poignant and powerful that I ordered copies of his book for our entire staff.
