Garrison Wynn Biography

Garrison Wynn, CSP, is a professional speaker, former Fortune 500 executive, and stand-up comedian known for combining business expertise with humor. Wynn began his career in his teens by helping debut the world's first video console gaming system, Odyssey, and later spent six years as a professional stand-up comedian, touring comedy clubs nationwide. He became the youngest department head in a Fortune 500 company's history, where he researched and designed processes for 38 company locations and developed products marketed in 30 countries.

Wynn's background includes surviving a chemical plant explosion and working in industrial instrumentation, which brings authenticity to his presentations. His experience spans roles in sales, marketing, safety, manufacturing, and entertainment, allowing him to connect with diverse audiences across industries. With television and film credits, Wynn engages audiences with keynotes that blend meaningful content and memorable delivery.

As an author, Wynn wrote "The Real Truth About Success: What the Top 1% Do Differently, Why They Won't Tell You, and How You Can Do It Anyway!" and co-authored "The Cowbell Principle," a career guide focused on unique competitive advantages. He contributed a biweekly column, On Success, to Washington Post and has been featured in Forbes, Selling Power Magazine, and The Houston Business Journal.

Wynn's presentations are grounded in research, including a Gallup Institute study of 80,000 managers and one million employees, as well as a ten-year study by Wynn Solutions involving 5,000 leaders in 323 organizations and 21 industries. He has presented on five continents to clients such as Amazon, Walmart, Berkshire Hathaway, McDonald's, the NFL, and NASA at corporate and association events.

Central to Wynn's message is the idea that success is not just about skill but about being consistently chosen, as people often select what they are most comfortable with. Wynn delivers relevant messages to audiences at all organizational levels, addressing topics such as leadership, workplace culture, change management, and sales. His combination of expertise, original research, and humor positions him as a leading keynote speaker in the business and professional development industry.

Garrison Wynn Speaking Topics

  • Millennial Loyalty: Keeping and Attracting Top Young Talent

    People in their 20s don't want what their parents wanted from a job. They are also more likely to live at home and less likely to put up with a work environment that cramps their style. What a shift in mindset! Attracting the young people needed to replace your retiring workforce (and making sure they stay long enough to make a difference) is crucial for your organization's future. This entertaining yet heavily researched program shows business owners, leaders and managers how to adapt their organization into a company young people want to work for and how to establish a culture they do not want to leave. Besides actually having a work force 10 years from now, the benefits include improved performance and heightened accountability from the millennials who represent your company's future.

  • Change = Success: Creating Transition without Revolution

    Success is almost always about working well with others to get the best possible results. The issue is that not everyone agrees on what is important, and it becomes difficult to get everyone on board when change is required to create or maintain success. Also, some people are so set in their ways and resistant to change that they see everything through a filter of suspicion. Or worse, things get overly dramatic or stressful and can develop into a "blame distribution" environment that affects morale and productivity.

    In this entertaining and inspirational research-based session, best-selling author Garrison Wynn shows how leaders, managers, and supervisors can achieve cohesion without manipulation, and to create clear, unified actions to quickly resolve conflicts. You'll find out how to make sure people value your opinion, respect your decisions (and the organization's new way), and quickly turn resistance into workable collaborations.
