Kyle Petty

Inspired by his late son Adam's work with sick children, Petty partnered with actor Paul Newman to establish the Victory Junction Gang Camp for children with chronic or life-threatening illnesses. The most ambitious of Kyle's many charitable projects, it is the official charity of NASCAR. Petty's work on behalf of others has made him one of the most widely recognized philanthropists in the world of sports.

As driver and CEO of Petty Enterprises, Petty takes audiences on a moving and anecdotal journey through his life as a businessman, philanthropist and one of NASCAR's most respected drivers. He explores the ideals that have kept the Petty family, which includes his father, Richard "The King" Petty and grandfather Lee, at the pinnacle of racing success for three generations: consistently striving for excellence, living up to your promises, teamwork, committing to family and helping the community.

In auto racing, you are only as good as your last race, and every week you get a report card. NASCAR racer Kyle Petty understands that business operates the same way and that you can never rest on your laurels; that competition is always fierce; that even at high speeds course-correction is always necessary; that even when you don't finish first, there's always a chance for redemption; and that you not only have to remain prepared for the unexpected, but it must be factored in to your path towards success. Petty's presentation draws analogies from racing and applies them to business, showing leaders how to learn from past performance, how to adapt to change and much more.
