Disney Booked Him Once, Then Signed Him for Two Years of National Events. That Is the Testimonial.

Confidence With Research Behind It

Confidence is a crowded category, and most of it is assertion. Juan’s differentiator is that his framework comes out of research with more than 250,000 leaders at institutions including Oxford, Penn State and the University of Toronto.

His core claim is that confidence is a choice and a cycle rather than a personality trait, which is a considerably more useful proposition for a room than being told to believe in themselves. His book Confident By Choice has been featured in Harvard Business Review and Rolling Stone and translated into more than four languages.

The problem he names is specific and recognisable: people are not speaking up. They are holding back, second-guessing and playing it safe, at exactly the moment the organization needs boldness. That is a performance problem with a cost, not a wellbeing topic.

Where He Fits, and Who Else Has Booked Him

American Express, US Bank, Zillow, Lindt, Allstate, Fidelity, Sony Pictures and Nationwide, alongside the Disney work. That is a spread across financial services, tech, consumer brands and insurance, which tells you the material is not industry-dependent.

He has three keynotes. Lead Through Change is the leadership conference option, built around confidence in an era of AI and constant disruption. The Confidence Cycle is the engagement and imposter-syndrome version for all-company sessions. Make Confidence Your Competitive Advantage is aimed squarely at sales kickoffs and annual meetings.

The change keynote is the timely one. Our analysis of Gallup’s AI adoption research found only 12 percent of workers say AI has transformed their work, and that the deciding factor is human rather than technical. A session on acting decisively while the ground shifts speaks directly to that.

He is also bilingual, which puts Latin America and Spanish-language events genuinely in range, and he is listed as an emcee option.
