What do your people remember six months after your annual meeting? The agenda? The slides? No. They remember a moment. That is what a Kraig Kann keynote is built to deliver.
What does Kraig Kann speak about?
Kraig Kann is a personal branding and leadership keynote speaker. His keynotes teach people how to communicate with confidence, build a personal brand that gets noticed, and represent their organization as one voice. Every talk draws on his career as an original Golf Channel anchor, Chief Communications Officer of the LPGA, and founder of Kann Advisory Group, so the stories are firsthand and the lessons are field tested.
From the Broadcast Booth to the Boardroom: Why Being “ON” Changes Everything
Seventeen years of live television taught Kraig one thing above all: the camera is always on, and so are you. This keynote shows leaders and teams how presence, preparation and energy shape the way people see them, in the meeting, on the sales call, and in the hallway.
Your Biggest Sale Begins with a Brand New You
Before anyone buys your product, they buy you. Built on Kraig’s trademarked “A Brand New You” workshop, this keynote gives sales teams and professionals a practical way to define, sharpen and deliver a personal brand that opens doors.
Here’s My Story. Why You Better Be Able to Sell Yours
Kraig has interviewed the best in the world under pressure and lived his own pivots from broadcaster to executive to entrepreneur. This keynote teaches people to find their story, tell it with clarity, and use it to connect. Be a storyteller, not a slide presenter.
Green Shoes in a Grey World: Your Brand Better Not Blend In
Standing up is easy. Standing out is the challenge. This keynote is about differentiation: for the individual, the team and the organization. It ends the way every Kraig Kann room ends, with someone earning the green shoe.

What formats are available?
45-60 Minutes
One hour will feel like ten minutes. It’s fast, fun and unforgettable. Kraig’s powerful message includes a never-before-seen interactive element tying directly to your people and how they see themselves impacting the organization. Kraig’s story guarantees they’ll view their career through a new lens, seeing their own story as a connective way up life’s ladder. When Kraig walks off the stage, they’ll be driven to deliver bigger influence with clarity on the value of building a magnetic brand that gets people’s attention. Somebody will own a coveted “green shoe” and you can include Kraig’s book signing experience as well.
90 Minutes
Add thirty minutes and you’ll see even more live interaction, his dynamic message, stories linked to a career in front of a camera and an opportunity for Q&A that allows people to connect with Kraig. Audience members learn the importance of preparing for the pivot – in life and career – and how it has pushed Kraig to new heights. Included is Kraig’s availability to join your top leaders for dinner the night before or after his talk on the night of your event. Of course, the green shoe finds its way into the whole experience and Kraig will gladly stay and sign copies of his book for even more audience engagement.
2-3 Hours
Need a power-packed morning or a longer post-lunch session that’s a sure home run? This is for you. Kraig’s keynote is superbly choreographed into two parts with a quick break in the middle. Within, you’ll get the option of two interactive “team breakouts” with an immediate follow-up moderated by Kraig or two “leader panels” with Q&A moderated by Kraig that dive into big picture topics affecting your organization, your strategy and goals, and your industry. The green shoe awaits and you’ll also witness an overflow hallway with a long line of eager folks waiting to grab Kraig’s signed book and snap a takeaway photo.
