Steve Rizzo Biography

Once upon a time, Steve Rizzo was told by a guidance counselor that he didn’t have the intelligence for college. A few years later, he was saddled with the dubious high school honor of being voted “Least Likely to Succeed.”

Rizzo went on to surprise everyone, including himself, by excelling with honors at the university and post-graduate levels. Eventually, he even taught English at his old high school and was a counselor for students with behavioral problems, proving once and for all that guidance counselors are not fortune-tellers.

Rizzo would go on to stellar success as a national headline comedian and starred in his very own Showtime comedy special, earning him honors as a Showtime Comedy All-Star.

At the pinnacle his stand-up career, Rizzo walked away from comedy to pursue his true purpose and passion—to show people how to shift their focus and way of thinking, to discover more joy and enthusiasm, increased productivity and greater levels of success.

Rizzo offers more than the usual nuts and bolts on how to succeed. He stresses the importance of enjoying yourself during the process of achieving your goals and building a solid foundation to stand on when all else fails, because he absolutely knows that no matter what circumstances we find ourselves in, attitude is everything.

When Steve Rizzo shares his blueprint for success with Fortune 500 companies and associations across the globe, he delivers a powerful message for living an extraordinary life, because he lives the Common Sense Success Strategies that have made him a member of prestigious Speakers Hall of Fame—an honor bestowed on fewer than 250 speakers worldwide since 1977.

Rizzo is the author of the bestselling books "Motivate THIS!" and "Get Your SHIFT Together." He is a regular contributor for Success magazine and often called upon as the go-to guy on the topic of personal and professional development for many network, cable and radio media outlets.

  • TAKE THIS JOB & LOVE IT! – For Education Groups –

    After being told by a guidance counselor that he didn’t have the intelligence to make it through college and then being saddled with the dubious high school honor of “Least Likely to Succeed,” Steve Rizzo didn’t give himself much of a chance to emerge as anything special, much less an honors college graduate, a teacher, a counselor for students with behavioral problems, a national headline comedian, an author and a Hall of Fame Speaker.

    Steve teaches educators how to acquire the attitude they need to achieve their goals in and out of the classroom while actually enjoying the process! “Enjoyment is the spark that ignites passion and enthusiasm,” Steve says. “Teaching without passion and enthusiasm is merely going through the motions. Passion and enthusiasm give you the strength to go the extra mile that could make a difference in a young person’s life.”

    Let Steve show your group how to perform and deliver far beyond their expectations, individually and as a team.

    YOUR GROUP WILL LEARN HOW TO…

    • Start each day with an unstoppable attitude to succeed.
    • Have fun and enjoy the process.
    • Create new ways of thinking that will turn obstacles into opportunities.
      • Shift their focus to see a brighter alternative to a negative situation.

  • LEADERSHIP SECRETS

    True leaders inspire, motivate and lead the charge to success boldly, regardless of their circumstances. In this lively, engaging program, Steve shares inspiring stories of extraordinary people and the intangible secrets that define them as true leaders.

    • Winning ways of thinking that change obstacles into opportunities.
    • Seeing the brighter alternative to a potentially negative situation.
    • What true leaders know that 99% of ordinary people don’t.

  • DON’T JUST ACCEPT CHANGE, EMBRACE IT!

    Many people have a difficult time with it, but in its inevitable process are the seeds of great growth. You just have to stop resisting long enough to plant them. Steve will show your group how to embrace one of the biggest challenges in both the workplace and in our personal lives…CHANGE. Discover the essential steps to surmounting change and achieving the success that lies on the other side.

    In DON’T JUST ACCEPT CHANGE, EMBRACE IT!, you will learn the secrets of… ? Being optimistic and eliminating negative self-talk. ? Enjoying yourself during the process of change. ?

    The biggest challenge people in sales face today is staying optimistic and motivated to be at their best for more than just a few days.

    “Nothing keeps salespeople from being productive and achieving their sales goals more than harboring negative feelings or having a bad attitude during the process.” – Steve Rizzo

    Studies have shown that our brain has a negative bias. We tend to fixate on what isn’t working in life rather than focusing on the positive factors. Motivate THIS! is a guide to shifting your sales team’s thought process so they are programmed for success – regardless of their circumstances. It provides them with a foundation to stand on when the nuts and bolts fail and the ratio of “Nos” outweighs the “Yeses.”

    Steve’s Common Sense Success Strategies will enable your sales team to transform their perspective so they can view challenges and setbacks through a more positive lens.

    STEVE WILL SHOW YOUR GROUP HOW TO…

    • The significance of the phrase “You Become What You Think About.”
    • The spark that ignites passion and enthusiasm.
    • The fuel that drives motivation.
    • The importance of developing a set of “feel good” habits.
