Josh Ball has spent over two decades making decisions that couldn't wait and couldn't be wrong. As Senior Director of Safety & Security for the Kansas City Chiefs, Josh is responsible for protecting more than 75,000 fans on gameday. He currently serves on the FIFA World Cup 2026 security planning teams and leads counter-UAS working groups alongside FAA representatives — work that puts him at the intersection of emerging threats and real-time decision-making. Before the NFL, Josh served as a Chief of Police, a firefighter, and Head of Security for the Kentucky Derby, one of the most complex single-day security operations in the world. That career path didn't just build his résumé. It built a leadership philosophy forged under pressure: that clarity, preparation, and a relentless "Fighting for Yes" mindset are what separate organizations that survive a crisis from those that lead through one. Today, Josh brings that philosophy to corporate stages, leadership teams, and conferences nationwide. His audiences leave with more than inspiration — they leave with frameworks they can implement before they walk back into the building. Josh is also the creator of the First Responder Transition Toolkit, a comprehensive system helping law enforcement officers, firefighters, and EMTs translate their public service experience into high-performing private sector careers. When he's not protecting fans on gameday or planning security for the world's largest sporting event, Josh is helping leaders discover what they're actually capable of when the stakes are real.

International Motivational Speaker | Corporate Keynote Specialist | The Disruption Coach
India
Simerjeet Singh does not teach change from a textbook. He teaches it from a life repeatedly rebuilt by choice. Before becoming a globally sought-after keynote speaker on leadership, change, innovation, growth mindset and organizational transformation, Simerjeet spent eight years building an international hospitality career across Australia, the United States, India, Dubai and the United Kingdom. Then, at 27, he walked away from the predictable path, returned to India and began again. There was no inherited platform, network or ready-made profession waiting for him. So he built one. Known globally as The Disruption Coach, Simerjeet has spent nearly two decades helping leaders, teams and organizations rethink what is possible. He has worked with more than 500 organizations and addressed audiences representing over 80 nationalities across India, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, Australia and North America. His clients include Deloitte, Mercer, Oracle, Siemens, ADP, Qualcomm, Toyota, Volvo, Pfizer, Novartis, Novo Nordisk and IHG Hotels & Resorts, among many others. From innovation conferences in Las Vegas and leadership gatherings in the Gulf to packed auditoriums in Singapore and senior executive meetings in India, his work travels easily across industries, cultures and levels of leadership. His address may be in Jalandhar, Punjab. His stage rarely is. By building an international speaking business from a Tier-2 Indian city, Simerjeet has become a living example of the ideas he shares: think differently, question inherited assumptions, use technology intelligently and design success around your values rather than somebody else’s definition of status. His influence extends far beyond the conference stage. His videos have collectively crossed 100 million views, his YouTube community exceeds 1.7 million subscribers, and his recent short-form content on Facebook and Instagram has generated more than four million views. He is a three-time TEDx speaker and has been invited four times to address international youth and leadership gatherings at the United Nations ESCAP Centre in Bangkok. But numbers tell only part of the story. Simerjeet’s keynotes are not lectures with motivational decoration. They are carefully designed human experiences combining business insight, lived experience, storytelling, humour, poetry, metaphors, reflection, movement, music, meditation and audience participation. Whether he has 15 minutes or 90, his aim is not merely to make people feel better. It is to help them see differently, and act differently. His most requested programmes explore embracing change, transformational leadership, innovation mindset, growth mindset, future readiness, collaboration, organizational culture and human leadership in the age of AI. He helps organizations confront the questions that strategies alone cannot answer: How do we change before circumstances force us to? How do we make innovation everybody’s responsibility? How do leaders create ownership rather than compliance? How do human beings remain relevant as technology becomes more powerful? Featured by leading business publications and speaker platforms among India’s top motivational speakers and most in-demand keynote speakers for corporate events, Simerjeet brings something increasingly rare to the stage: credibility without stiffness, depth without complexity and energy without theatrics. He does not merely ask audiences to follow their highest calling. His life is evidence that it can be done—and that a career built around one’s deepest talents can also become commercially successful, globally relevant and profoundly useful. His central message is simple: Do not wait for disruption. Reinvent before you have to; and lead change before change leads you.

Professional Speaker | Author | TV Personality | Brand Storyteller
Leominster, Massachusetts
Ronny LeBlanc has built a career by following curiosity—and turning unconventional ideas into stories, brands, books, television, and experiences that connect with people. A bestselling author, television personality, researcher, speaker, storyteller, and marketing professional, Ronny brings together a rare combination of media experience, entrepreneurship, creativity, communication, branding, and fearless curiosity. Known to television audiences from Discovery Channel’s Expedition Bigfoot and Travel Channel’s Paranormal Caught on Camera, Ronny is the author of three books exploring Bigfoot, UFOs, consciousness, unexplained phenomena, and the mysteries that challenge our understanding of reality. But the unknown is only one part of his story. Before television, Ronny built a career in advertising, digital marketing, sales, branding, content creation, and business development. He has helped organizations tell their stories, launch ideas, build audiences, create memorable experiences, and turn attention into action. His own unconventional journey—from musician and filmmaker to marketing executive, entrepreneur, author, television personality, researcher, and professional speaker—has given him a perspective that can’t be learned from a textbook. At the center of Ronny’s talks is a simple idea: curiosity changes lives. Whether he is discussing extraordinary mysteries, personal reinvention, storytelling, marketing an idea, building an authentic personal brand, navigating change, creativity, consciousness, or finding purpose, he encourages audiences to question assumptions and recognize possibilities they may have overlooked. His philosophy can be summed up in three words: Passion. Path. Purpose. Find what genuinely excites you. Have the courage to pursue it. Then discover how your experiences—even the unexpected ones—can become part of something meaningful. Ronny’s presentations combine storytelling, humor, real-world experience, compelling visuals, audience interaction, and practical takeaways. He can take audiences deep into the forests searching for Bigfoot, behind the scenes of national television, inside the mysteries of consciousness—or into a completely different conversation about how to build a brand, sell an idea, reinvent yourself, communicate authentically, and turn curiosity into opportunity. Ronny doesn’t ask audiences to simply accept what he believes. He challenges them to think differently about what they believe is possible—for the world, their careers, their ideas, and themselves.
