James Cathcart
Biography

James Cathcart has been a leadership development expert for over two decades. Currently the senior leadership specialist at Western Governor's University, he also spent 23 years with the Franklin Covey Company, working with corporate, education, government, and military organizations all across the world. Some of his clientele included Amazon.com, Microsoft, various school districts, The United States Air Force and The United States Navy.

"Most of my interests and activities have something to do with the noble triumph of the human spirit. I believe that each of us are capable of more than we sometimes believe. We are stronger than we know, tougher than we realize and more talented than we often give ourselves credit for. Tapping into that potential has become my life's work."

James's education in Sociology and Organizational Behavior from Brigham Young University, his content mastery, quick sense of humor and dynamic personality has made him one of the most sought after speakers with Franklin Covey and WGU. Having lived in all three states on the west coast of the U.S., James now lives in Salt Lake City, UT with his wife and two children.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to some of the most common questions about booking James Cathcart for your event.

How do I book James Cathcart for my event?

Booking James Cathcart with Premiere Speakers Bureau is a streamlined 4-step process:
  • Availability Check: Contact us with your event date and budget to verify if your desired speaker is available.
  • Hold Date: We place a temporary "hold" on the speaker's calendar while you finalize internal approval.
  • Contracting: We issue a contract outlining the fee, cancellation policy, and event expectations.
  • Logistics: Once signed, our event management team handles all travel booking, itinerary, and AV requirements.

Why should I partner with Premiere Speakers Bureau rather than contacting speakers directly?

Partnering with Premiere Speakers Bureau provides a comprehensive safety net for your event that direct booking cannot match. You get the same speaker for the same price, but with a dedicated team with over 30 years of event experience handling contracts, logistics, and are prepared for any emergency. We know what it takes to run an excellent event.

What makes Premiere Speakers Bureau unique compared to other agencies?

Premiere Speakers Bureau distinguishes itself by having over 30 years of experience while partnering with more than 35,000 events. PSB has also built a streamlined, fully online process that makes booking a speaker, handling travel and payments extremely easy for anyone looking to plan a speaker led event.

How does Premiere Speakers Bureau's 'Zero Cost Service' model work?

Premiere Speakers Bureau operates on a 'Zero Cost Service' model for event planners. Our services—including research, booking, and logistics—are always free to the client. The speaker covers our commission from their standard honorarium as payment for our role in marketing and managing their engagements.

How are speaker fees structured, and what is typically included?

A speaker's fee typically covers the keynote presentation, a pre-event planning call, and standard customization. Travel expenses are usually billed separately.

What are the standard policies for speaker travel and expenses?

Travel expenses are negotiated during contracting. We generally recommend a flat travel fee for simplicity, though we also offer line-by-line invoicing when preferred. PSB ensures these expenses adhere to professional standards, and our Event Portal allows for easy tracking and invoicing.
