Jean Briese

If you want an audience that’s energized, laughing, and walking out with tools they’ll use the very next day—Jean Briese delivers. Known for high-energy, engaging presentations, Briese delivers keynotes that are fun, relatable, and immediately actionable. Audiences don’t just feel motivated—they learn practical strategies to strengthen resilience, sharpen focus, and take ownership of their impact at work and in life.

Briese’s presentations blend compelling storytelling with real-world tools that individuals and teams can put into action right away. Event planners consistently praise her ability to connect with diverse audiences, create memorable moments, and translate inspiration into lasting behavior change.

Behind the energy is deep credibility. Briese is a former Fortune 10 sales leader, award-winning entrepreneur, and leadership strategist.

Perhaps most powerfully, Briese’s message is grounded in lived experience. Abandoned at 15, she understands resilience not as a buzzword—but as a skill that can be built. Today, she brings that perspective to stages across the country, helping organizations energize their people, strengthen culture, and create momentum that lasts long after the event.
