Much of Samuels' career has been spent training and directing people to perform at their best, whether on-air, on stage, in the boardroom, or on the road making sales calls.
In addition to his extensive experience as a corporate executive, Samuels has a considerable background in performance. He's hosted radio shows in several of Canada's largest cities, performed across Canada as a stand-up comic, and he's an accomplished writer and newspaper columnist.
His work as a Corporate/Convention Speaker and Performer has recently become his sole focus, having performed his unique presentations to standing ovations across Canada and the United States. He is looking forward to future presentational opportunities around the globe.
Samuels keynote address combines his two greatest passions --professional training and mentalism. The result is a one-of-a-kind hybrid presentation that offers informative and relevant information delivered in an entertaining performance setting that embraces the production values of a theatre show. "I've attended hundreds of conventions and corporate meetings over the past years," he says, "and I've been inspired by some of the best presenters in the business. I've also learned from the many who didn't manage to hold the room."
Samuels believes that a great presentation leaves you with something to think about. It should offer content and methodologies that you can actually implement in both your personal and professional lives. "I was out to create a presentation that works like a really thought-provoking film," he says. "It will linger in your mind for a very long time."
Originally from Montreal, Samuels lives in beautiful British Columbia, Canada, just outside of Vancouver.
