Worth the flight, and built to be.
Australia is a serious conference market with a low tolerance for imported hype. Audiences in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane have sat through plenty of American speakers and can tell within two minutes whether someone has actually run something or has only ever talked about running something.
That is the case for booking Chris. He is a sitting executive who leads national healthcare organizations, not a full time speaker describing other people’s companies. The material on potential, leadership, sales, and culture travels because it is built on what people are capable of rather than on regulation, tax code, or market specifics that stop at a border.
No Interpretation
English delivery to an English speaking market. Nothing gets softened in translation and no localisation is needed.
Operator, Not Just Speaker
Bestselling author, President and COO of national healthcare organizations, Inc. Regionals number three in the Midwest.
Built to Justify the Trip
Keynote plus workshops or multiple sessions across the same visit, so the travel investment covers more than one room.

You Are Capable of More: A No-Excuses Guide to Becoming Your Best Self is the bestselling book behind the signature keynote, published by Game Changer Publishing with a foreword by Ben Newman.
A direct wake-up call to stop settling for less and start taking ownership of your life. Through personal stories, hard-earned lessons, and actionable frameworks, Chris exposes how excuses, fear, self-doubt, and the trap of comfort quietly sabotage your potential. This is not a book about becoming perfect. It is a blueprint for becoming better.
Bulk orders and signed copies are available. For Australian events copies are best ordered locally and shipped to the venue, which avoids freight cost and customs delay. Ask when you send your dates.
Booking from Australia.
- Travel originates from Omaha, Nebraska, connecting through Los Angeles, San Francisco, or Dallas to Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane.
- Chris arrives at least two full days ahead for an Australian engagement so the time difference never shows up on your stage.
- A speaker visa or travel authority may apply depending on the engagement. Chris handles his own documentation once the booking is confirmed.
- Travel, accommodation, and ground costs are quoted separately from the speaking fee so your budget line is clear.
- Given the distance, a single trip covering two or three engagements makes far better economics. If you know of a neighbouring conference in the same fortnight, say so early.
