HUSBAND, FATHER, LEADING WITH PURPOSE.

Speaker. Strategist. Certified Maxwell Leadership Trainer.

When you've spent decades helping people connect, perform, and lead—you learn that the moments that matter most don’t happen when you’re ready. They happen when you're called. And you either rise to it—or you don’t.

Brian Orr teaches people how to rise.

His journey started on literal stages—first as a DJ performing across global venues, later as a speaker and leadership trainer in boardrooms and conferences.
But it wasn’t glamour. It was pressure.
Stagefright. Self-doubt. The mental war between presence and panic.

And yet every one of those moments became training. For something bigger.

Today, Brian helps leaders, teams, and high-performers channel pressure into presence, purpose, and performance—on stage and off.

What He Speaks On

Brian’s core keynote, Stagefright Energy™, is not about managing nerves.
It’s about seeking fear on purpose.
Because fear is a signal—not a problem. And pressure is a privilege when you learn to use it.

He teaches audiences how to:

  • Show up sharp when it counts

  • Communicate with clarity in high-stakes moments

  • Replace hesitation with execution

  • Perform like it matters—because it always does

This isn’t motivational fluff. It’s performance under pressure, taught by someone who’s lived it—in front of thousands, under flashing lights, and inside burning buildings.

Who He Works With

Brian speaks to:

  • Leadership teams

  • Associations

  • Sales organizations

  • Conferences that value performance, purpose, and trust

He also delivers Maxwell-certified leadership training—with a strategic edge drawn from 30 years in brand activations, communication strategy, and real-world execution.

Personal Notes That Still Matter

Brian is a husband, father of three, and lifelong advocate of service-driven leadership. He doesn’t teach personal development—he lives it.
His mission is to raise leaders who value impact over image, and presence over position.
