Biography

Peter Katz is a 2026 Inductee into the National Speakers Association's Speaker Hall of Fame, an honor achieved by less than 1% of professional speakers.

Over more than a decade, Peter wrote hundreds of songs, shared stages and studios with Grammy Award-winning artists and producers, and performed more than 150 concerts a year around the world, seeing firsthand how music and story can cut through noise, forge connection, and make people feel part of something bigger.

Eventually, executives and event planners began asking him to bring that same transformative power to their organizations, not just to inspire people for a moment, but to help build cultures that last.

Through that work, Peter discovered a profound pattern:

The most vibrant, connected teams weren’t chasing culture, they were celebrating it.

They knew what mattered most to their people, their mission, their customers, and their communities, and they made it visible. They named it. Elevated it. Repeated it until it became part of who they were.

“We become what we celebrate.”

That insight became Peter’s calling.

Today, Peter is a trusted partner to Fortune 500 companies like Coca-Cola, Johnson & Johnson, Cisco, and American Express; leading healthcare systems like Johns Hopkins Medicine and SickKids Hospital; major associations like PCMA and APEX; and all levels of government, including the House of Commons of Canada and the US Department of Energy.

They turn to Peter to help them clarify what matters most, recognize it in everyday actions, and celebrate it in ways that fuel connection and performance.

Peter’s work has been recognized with JUNO Award nominations, tens of millions of views and streams of his music and videos, and features on national and international television and radio. And, most recently, Peter received the remarkable honor of being inducted into the National Speakers Association Hall of Fame.

But what matters most to him isn’t the accolades, it’s the impact:

Watching leaders realize they already have what they need to transform their culture

Seeing teams light up when they feel truly seen for what they contribute

Hearing, “We’ve got to celebrate what matters,” echo through the room as people leave ready to lead differently

At the heart of everything Peter does is a simple belief:

When people feel seen, connected, and celebrated for what matters most, they don’t just stay: they show up fully.

Start celebrating what matters with Peter Katz.

“Peter, his presentation, and his commitment to our audience remains one of my career highlights.” Michele Zarella - Advisor Enrichment Manager, Commonwealth Financial Services

Peter Katz delivered what was by far the best one hour Keynote that our audience has ever seen. Peter's ability to connect with our staff was truly appreciated. He was inspirational and engaging and just what we all needed after a challenging year. I am so grateful Peter has chosen to share his talent and gift with others. I can't wait for the next opportunity to work with Peter!

Canadian Medical Protective Association

I've been in the events industry for 35+ years and with SITE Canada since 2012. I can' remember a time, either in a live or a virtual environment, where the outpouring of positive comments was this high. What Peter achieved today for our members virtually totally surprised me; I think it's even unprecedented

SITE Canada

Peter was a true pleasure to work with. He put so much effort into his preparation, learning about our meeting goals, our business and our culture. (Worth mentioning his technical setup was very impressive as well, delivering a really high-quality presentation). Peter clearly takes great pride in creating an authentic connection with his audience and making sure that his message resonates - and that came through in the glowing feedback we received in the chat as well as after his session

Corporate Affairs, Mars/Wrigley

I would hire Peter Katz again in a nanosecond. He transformed the lives of 130 employees that will show up to work and do better, with more meaning in their personal and professional lives. He really brought a personal and an emotional connection to our company.

Peter was a joy to work with. He proved to be an engaging speaker and a consummate professional. He took the extra steps to make sure the virtual keynote went off without a technical hitch, showing up early and thoroughly prepared. He took consideration of his audience, incorporating our Members into the content of his keynote making it a truly interactive and engrossing session. Participants came away from his presentation feeling energized and motivated with purpose.

The Coca-Cola Company

Peter, you are a gem. One of my colleagues had a teammate email them thanking BMO for the session, saying that it gave her a much needed boost and, at times, had her in tears. She couldn't believe our organization invests in people the way we do and that she really felt cared for. This is so aligned to who we are. Your session really hit a high note. Thank you so very much.

Bank of Montreal (BMO)

I can't think of a more engaging and inspirational speaker than Peter. He was perfect for our event -- by far my favourite speaker! As part of his prep work, he connected with our business to get to know us better and understand our TD culture and the personal TD CPB stories of our team. We felt like we had front row seats at one of his concerts. Truly superb!

Peter blew my expectations out of the water, and my expectations were very high.
