Tim was part of our Return to Office initiative as our keynote speaker when we brought teams back into our space for the first time. He brought immediate warmth and energy to the room. His message of pursuing success through contribution was exactly the right tone to set as we came back together and actually ended up serving as a catalyst for very healthy, honest and meaningful conversations on how we want to operate with one another

Redefining Success for Your Business
There’s a message getting a lot of airtime these days. It says to be successful, you have to step into the spotlight, climb the ladder, become the boss, or chase whatever version of success that’s been dangled in front of you.
But what if there’s another way? What if fame, money, and power aren’t all that we should be chasing?
In this keynote, Tim Schurrer invites you to reevaluate your definition of success and learn a new, freer way to go about achieving it. Through powerful stories of people like the CEO of Apple Tim Cook, NBA all-star LeBron James, founder of Thistle Farms Becca Stevens, and others you’ve never heard of, you will discover that the success you’re looking for is within your reach, wherever you are and whatever your role.
