Young audiences don’t want a lecture.
They want a reason to lean in.
Kevin Wanzer has been connecting with young people for over four decades — not by talking down to them, but by meeting them exactly where they are. His programs are high-energy, flat-out funny, and built around something that works for every audience regardless of age: the power of passion, connection, and the small choices that define who we become.
Whether he's opening a student leadership conference, energizing a college orientation, or speaking at an FFA or DECA event, Kevin leaves young audiences with something rare — a program they'll still be talking about long after the day is over
Kevin regularly works with colleges and universities, student leadership organizations, and youth conferences of all kinds — including DECA, FFA, FBLA, 4-H, Y2Y, HOBY, ITI, and similar programs.
Many of his campus and organization clients have brought him back year after year. A few have even adjusted their egvent schedules to make sure they get him.
Kevin's secret isn't a script.
It's a rare gift for getting people to engage.
He’s great with all ages, and he began his career speaking to young people. He opens them up, engages, and helps them connect with each other without ever feeling like they're being forced to participate. No "find a partner." No awkward icebreakers. Just a room full of people who suddenly can't stop laughing and don't realize they're learning something at the same time.
His programs explore passion as a vehicle for connection — helping young people discover what drives them, appreciate what drives others, and walk away with a broader, more generous view of the world around them.
Every program is fully customized to your audience, your theme, and your goals.
Tell us about your event and Kevin will craft an experience your audience will remember long after your event.
