I had the honor of hearing Kevin speak at our campus’s wellness staff retreat a few month ago and to say I left feeling transformed is an understatement. He has a way of demanding the room and allowing you to truly reflect on your life for the better. His presentation was centered around a positive mindset and being in a constant state of gratitude. With the ability to story tell and give real life examples, he made a impact not only on myself but with those I interact with. He assigned homework to each participant and it included writing down one’s core values which allowed me to reflect on what was truly important to me and be consistent with those things each day. He also shared a morning activity that he does which centers around showing gratitude. I have added that activity to my morning routine and although I still have work to do, I can attest that Kevin made a lasting impact on my life that was certainly for the best. I want to again thank you for you time and know that I look forward to working with you in the future.
Kevin does such an amazing job engaging his audience and making his topics relatable and understandable. He is also very approachable and friendly. Thank you Kevin for your great work and the passion you bring to every presentation!

Kevin is one of the best collaborators I have worked with and is an outstanding public speaker, facilitator, coach, and course designer. I have entrusted the development of my employees and staff to him for years and their content has been – by far – the most popular and impacting in the areas of communication and facilitation. If you seek customized content that will be raved about – and more importantly, utilized with demonstrable results – for years, Kevin and his team should be your choice. On top of that Kevin is engaging, innovative and FUN! I could not recommend him more highly.
Kevin led an engaging and very insightful team communication session when I worked at Dell EMC, and I still use the concepts and methods we learned over those 2 days. His approach was authoritative and universal – we had team members of various ages and cultures, yet we all felt unified by Kevin’s upbeat attitude and obvious love for what he does. After the session, I connected with him on various social channels and I’m always happy to see what new ideas he comes-up-with. I would gladly organize or host an event with him as the centerpiece!
Love it! Alwas great to hear Kevin speak. Kevin brings his A-game when speaking at our AAFAME events. I could be watching paint dry and be fascinated and entertained by Kevin’s words and thoughts. Good stuff, KK! Good stuff!
Kevin has the ability to quickly build a connection with participants; his professional facilitation skills, partnered with his engaging delivery, encourages those in the classroom (in-person and virtual) to be curious and open to learning. His Positivity Under Pressure webinar was a hit with our employees, prompting many to find way to promote positivity groups within the organization.
Kevin provided the foundation to ensure we as employees are positively motivated to do our jobs. He also provided useful training on presenting, selling and servicing our customers. In building a new sales support team these tools are critical to the success of our business. Kevin delivered useful information that my team can apply to their jobs right away.
I cannot thank Kevin enough. I attended his Agile Leadership workshop and found the entire content and delivery session insightful. This has been helpful working with all the different learner personalities I encounter when developing content and managing staff. Most of all it will help me personally. The positive message he conveyed is very closely related to how I train, manage and live, but to hear things in a more eloquent message I am able to continually grow my own skill sets. I cannot recommend Kevin enough. His session was eye opening and reaffirming.
I have participated in several sessions where Kevin Karschnik spoke, and he always inspires me! I love his positive messages, and I highly recommend him for any speaking events or training sessions for your company. I have taken his courses at Dell, and during COVID he came and did a Zoom call with several members of Women in Action and I have taken his tips into the workplace and personally and professionally. Thank you Kevin for all you do! Keep on spreading your inspiration and tips!
Kevin, thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with the CNY ATD chapter regarding Positivity Under Pressure. Your presentation was amazing. I found you relatable, knowledgeable, and engaging. I have already started to implement some of the techniques shared. I am so glad I joined! I highly recommend. Thanks again!
I attended Kevin’s presentation on “Positivity Under Pressure.” It was one of the best trainings I’ve taken in years. He used practical examples and science to explain his key points, which I shared with my personal and professional contacts. He is an excellent speaker & trainer!
We had the privilege of working with Kevin during a series of executive leadership development sessions. Kevin is an example of all that he brings into a session- he is articulate, a great listener, a supreme communicator and more! He is also in command of the space, by virtue of their integrity and presence in ways that ensures all levels of professionals feel in harmony with and of benefit to be working with him. I could not recommend him any higher. Your organization can only receive a high return on the investment of the time and energy you spend under their guidance and within their knowledge.
Kevin has created a model that positively impacts the way an organization does business while providing tools to increase net sales and customer satisfaction. This model is complimented by his ability to deliver the instruction and material in an engaging and creative forum where participants not only learn from the facilitator but from each other as well.
Some of the best ways to start your workweek is with a willingness to take on the next challenge, work diligently through the mundane, and seek opportunities to be creative. In April I had the pleasure of participating in the Positive Under Pressure virtual program hosted by CNY ATD (Association for Talent Development) with Kevin as the program facilitator. Delivering an informative and engaging presentation, Kevin provided can-do, practical takeaways, and reminders that perspective and attitude are at the forefront of handling stress effectively. Sometimes a voice offering clear focus, positive energy, and personal experiences of overcoming struggle can be what is needed to press forward when the stress seems to be compounding. I look forward to participating in another workshop, or program Kevin is facilitating, and highly recommend attending to others to stay motivated or invigorate any team of professionals.
I had the opportunity of having a workshop from Kevin at the LDP Discover training from BCG about grow mindset and I highly recommend his tools, his way of work and the great way that he has to transmit a message of changing your mind to the positive. As a leaders we forget about ourselves and on this workshop I could remind that I am a continue work in progress, thanks Kevin for being such a professional on this area.
Kevin put a session together for our Leadership Conference called Tough Conversations. He covered so much information in such an efficient way. His delivery is very engaging and he gives non-stop energy from start to finish! I would recommend Kevin to anyone looking for a conference speaker or for a standalone session. Great stuff!
We truly enjoyed Kevin’s presentation to the Financial Women in Texas, Austin Chapter, on Positivity Under Pressure. It was timely in the midst of the transitions we still face in 2021. A relevant reminder that we are what we think. He gave relatable, easy to understand examples of how our thoughts & minds work. Tips anyone can easily incorporate into their daily routine to increase your positivity, sprinkling little bits of humor throughout. Kevin was high energy, engaging with the audience, asking for input & feedback. The ladies left the meeting feeling revived and equipped to focus more on our mindset & how it impacts ourselves & others.
Kevin was a great communicator, easy to reach, and quick to respond prior to our event. He was personable and engaging. Afterwards, he shared his PDF slides for anyone that missed the meeting. We look forward to having Kevin speak again in the future.
Kevin’s engaging delivery style, wealth of knowledge, and sequence of content resulted in a powerful session that empowered attendees by increasing their competence and autonomy in daily life. It also helped them think differently about their professional and personal foundational behaviors. The sample of Kevin’s offerings we experienced were effective, and indicated that any time with Kevin is time well-spent.
Kevin spoke at our Women at Dell meeting. Not only did he bring a positive energy to the meeting, he introduced us to useful ideas. I was able to employ his ideas the following week as a panelist in an open forum.
I was fortunate to attend a 2-day Communication workshop taught by Kevin. From word selection, to presentation structure and body language, he helped us to develop a positive and engaging delivery to the audience. It wasn’t just his ability to help us communicate more effectively that made it so meaningful, he made the course interesting and fun. This was easily one of the most impactful training workshops I have attended. Thank you Kevin and I look forward to the next!
I had the pleasure of getting connected to Kevin Karschnik through his work at iSpeak with my employer Texas Instruments. He was kind enough to connect with me offline to discuss my journey in the entrepreneurial speaker and consulting world and offer his insight and guidance from his own personal experience.
While I often connect with people along the speaker circuit and in the consulting world, Kevin was kind enough to go above and beyond sharing his time on calls with me to download what he has learned along the way. Many people keep their lessons learned tight to the vest, but Kevin has been extremely generous in sharing his knowledge, best practices, resources, tools, and lessons learned as well as connected me with so many other experts in the field.
His expertise in agile leadership and positive psychology help teams and individuals reach peak performance. Not only is he exceptional in delivering to customers in this space, he exemplifies “walking the talk” and modeling the behaviors in which he educates his clients. I have had the opportunity to see him in action and he keeps his audience engaged and they walk away with practical takeaways that can be implemented immediately.
It’s a pleasure to call Kevin a friend and mentor in this evolving space that he has become an expert in.
Kevin spoke to our chapter in February 2022. He shared tips for staying positive under pressure. He was a pleasure to work with from initial contact to follow-up. The presentation was very informative. Kevin was very engaging. Many chapter members were pleased that after the presentation they had both an understanding of the theories around positivity and performance and some practical ways to increase positivity. The presentation was rated very well in our post-session evaluation. Members described the session as relevant, amazing, encouraging, helpful, and motivational. We look forward to working with Kevin in the future.
Kevin led a wonderful program for CNY ATD on the topic of Positivity Under Pressure. It was a high energy and engaging program! Kevin provided participants with a ton of resources to check out. Participants evaluated the program very highly with lots of positive feedback. We can’t thank Kevin enough for his time and willingness to share his knowledge and wisdom with our community!
Kevin recently hosted a webinar event with my company on positivity and I found his presentation to be extremely engaging and motivating. I have already begun using some of his suggestions for improving my morning routine. I also love the many metaphors and stories he shares to really connect the material on a personal level. My favorite was losing his hat while on vacation. We can all relate to giving minor things too much power over our happiness and when I catch myself slipping down that slope again, I think of the $20 hat story. I look forward to seeing more work by Kevin!
Kevin’s session at the 2023 UHD Staff Wellness Retreat was engaging, inspiring, and motivating. I left feeling prepared to approach my work with a fresh mindset, and I was excited to immediately employ some of the internal reflection strategies Kevin shared.
I saw Kevin at a conference and knew his presentation would be perfect for another conference I was planning. He did a phenomenal job making sure his presentation was customized to what we needed and executed it wonderfully! He was so easy to work with and made our conference planning easier – I would definitely recommend him!
If you are looking for a dynamic and compelling speaker, I highly recommend Kevin! I recently got to encounter him for the topic of Growth Mindset and came away from his presentation with so many applications for my work and personal life. Kevin was enthusasic about the topic and brought the room into the discussion. He shared his own experiences which was a nice touch of vulnerability and doing so also helped to illustrate his key points. The materials he presented were well-organized and he kept a level of flexibilty so that the presentation remained engaging. I immediately came away from the discussion with some tools to flex my current thought patterns and the drive to take on new challenges. I look forward to the next presentation with Kevin.
We have used Kevin so many times. This is a must have for all sales groups, and very important for all employees to learn about their audience and learn better presentation skills! I would highly recommend him!
What I have always found most impressive about Kevin is his enthusiasm and ability to connect with an audience. He is an excellent motivator and coach. Kevin’s message comes across clear and concise. His program is something that will definitely help my career!
Kevin is an excellent speaker that has the gift of keeping everyone engaged. He has a depth of materials to choose from that will cater to any work environment. He led a workshop at our BOMA Austin Retreat and after that I take any opportunity I can to hear him speak.
I have attended several of Kevin‘s training events. He is a dynamic presenter and I have learned key takeaways that I can apply immediately in my role. Highly recommend attending one of Kevin’s events!
Kevin delivered two sessions for ATD San Antonio: “Positivity Under Pressure” and “Positive Mindset.” One session was in-person, and the other was delivered virtually. Both sessions were extremely well received by our members. Some of the feedback we received from our members in post-session surveys included “He gave so many practical examples, techniques, and resources to use immediately…” and “This session has been amazing! Great takeaways that I can use daily.” Kevin is an expert speaker and facilitator. His sessions were engaging, and he focused on actionable learning take-aways.
Working with Kevin to schedule these sessions was a great experience. He took time to explore our chapter’s needs to ensure he was aligning his content, and his enthusiasm and dedication was absolutely apparent.
Kevin is an exceptional speaker. He presented for a nationally syndicated webinar series focused on association executives and the audience’s feedback was overwhelmingly positive. If you’re interested in a knowledge transfer experience that adds value in the age of distance learning, I implore you to reach out to Kevin Karschnik.
I’ve taken 2 classes from Kevin. He provides relevant information for the subject matter and engages the audience.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I met Kevin Karschnik a few years ago while preparing for an event I was invited to speak at. He helped me prepare by going over what I was going to say with me and giving me tips & insight on delivery methods. I have since worked with Kevin in the creation of his speaker reel along with several other videos and have shared the stage with him at a recent event. Kevin spends hours in preparation of an event and when he gets on the stage, he is incredibly flawless. He engages his audience with his drive & energy as well as with personalized content and stories that capture your attention. Not only is he an incredible speaker and business man, he is an incredible person with a heart of gold. He is supportive, passionate about helping others and commits himself to giving back to the community. He truly embodies what a solid leader in the industry looks like. Given the opportunity, Kevin will take your business to the next level!
I have been a client of Kevin’s for years and have always been 110% satisfied with the content and delivery of the workshops Kevin has conducted for us. Most recently, Kevin, created and delivered a webinar series on Tough Conversations. The content was on point and customized to the audience, the delivery was highly engaging, and attendees had great, actionable takeaways from his sessions. HIGHLY recommend Kevin!
Need someone to engage your organization’s audience to promote a positive mindset? I highly recommend Kevin Karschnik. I found Kevin to be not only a delightful speaker, but his topnotch presentation helped motivate me to kick start a few of my neglected happy habits back into gear. If you need a boost reassessing your values, Kevin’s doable strategies will help improve the odds of sticking to the supportive tools you enjoy – ones that will keep you positive under pressure!
Kevin did an outstanding job with his virtual presentation on Zoom about Positivity Under Pressure. He presented to about 65 staff members during Customer Service Week 2021. His message of resilience, positivity and practical tips was just what we needed. The feedback from the team was spectacular. Kevin was easy to work with and super flexible. Reach out to Kevin, you’ll be glad you did.
