About This Speaker

Billy Anderson is an international speaker, executive leadership coach, and author of the book “Your Comfort Zone Is Killing You.”

Previously, Billy was an advertising manager in Europe and Canada, a fundraising director for UNICEF, an apple picker in New Zealand and a sugar cane farmer in Costa Rica. He also spent ten years leading wilderness trips for Outward Bound.

Billy continually steps out of his comfort zone to test his courage. He has jumped out of an airplane exactly 101 times and travelled to over 40 countries, including running with the bulls in Spain and swimming with sharks in South America.

And he’s scared of the exact same things as everyone else: failure, looking stupid, and not being liked.

Courage Drives Change

A transformational keynote that gets your people to think, feel and act differently. They will be empowered to step out of their comfort zone and embrace change. Why is Courage important? - Successful change comes from having the courage to embrace discomfort and use it as a compass for action. We first need to understand the root problem—how does fear try to hijack our thoughts and actions? - People think courage is set in stone—we're either courageous or we're not. This is not true. How courageous you are in the future is 100% up to you based on what you start doing differently today. - Wouldn’t it be nice to have a new way of thinking about courage to remove some of that discomfort so your people can embrace change and crush their goals? Your Audience’s Main Takeaway “Courage is a muscle which I can strengthen by stepping out of my comfort zone more often, not less often.”

Your Comfort Zone Is Killing You

Change is scary. People want to know their fears are normal, and they want to feel supported and equipped to handle the change. Billy’s talk is about courage – understanding it, using it, growing it and growing from it. The four ways this talk differs from those of others: - Billy uses humour – and humour makes learning stick better. - It’s interactive – Billy engages with the audience to help them flex their courage muscle. - Customized - your audience will see themselves in the content. - Billy provides audiences with proven tools which they can use immediately to create behaviour change.
