At The Keynote Curators, we’re constantly curating fresh and exciting keynote speakers with ideas worth sharing. Today’s spotlight is on Walter Bond, former NBA athlete, bestselling author, and sought-after business coach.


“Your peak is waiting for you to rise up to it.”Walter Bond

? Nothing excites Walter Bond more than speaking to and motivating audiences to live up to their true potential.

⛹?‍♂️ Growing up, he dreamed of playing in the NBA but didn’t have the natural athletic talents of his peers. As a college player, he was overweight, couldn’t shoot or rebound, and averaged 7 points a game. Through hard work, discipline, encouragement, and an internal drive that just wouldn’t quit, Bond became the first undrafted rookie to start a season-opening game for the NBA and played for them for eight years.

? Today, he’s moved from center court to center stage, delivering powerful messages of resilience, peak performance, and mindfulness to companies and associations throughout the Americas and Europe, including Accenture, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Allianz, GNC, Hilton, the UPS Store and more. His success as a Hall of Fame motivational speaker, business coach, and co-founder of one of the country’s leading professional training and development organizations is a testament to his vision, commitment, and self-belief.

?? A high-energy, motivating keynote speaker who consistently receives rave reviews from meeting planners and audience members, Bond delivers audiences a simple message: THINK. EXECUTE. WIN. His arsenal of motivational content helps executives, managers, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and others improve their performance and results by adopting a growth mindset and viewing challenges as opportunities for growth and development.
