Greg Hicks has been an extremely popular speaker at the Applied Brilliance Conference and many other thought leadership events I’ve produced. He is empathetic, smart, savvy, funny, enlightening, compelling and surprising every time he presents his model of success, well-being and happiness. Greg’s story resonates with individuals of all ages, professions and life stages; and he customizes his message to create a life changing, life affirming and inspirational experience for any audience. We all can benefit from Greg’s training to reinforce positive behaviors with happy outcomes.
