Greg gave an awesome presentation to our commercial real estate firm. Greg's stories were fun and relatable and the topics covered were thought-provoking and perfectly on target for our group. I have been incorporating his advice and techniques on negotiation and it has had a massive impact on my business. The group enjoyed him so much that he was invited to the firm's happy hour to continue the Q & A and conversations one on one. Greg far and away over delivered

Response from The Winner's Mindset:
I live to make an impact. I arrive early and stay late for two reasons: I want to learn as much as I can about the group so I can speak directly to their objectives. Second, I want to answer specific questions and help people integrate what they leaned to their specific circumstances.
Greg did a fantastic job at our sales meeting. He told some great stories and translated the message of how he did not only in playing poker but also in business, that the sales team could use in every day business. He also was an inspiration on the mental aspect of not being satisfied but reach for the what you think cannot be achieved. His 4 minute mile discussion was a great example of not accepting the norm and even if you think something is not possible, it is. Greg also provided the extra bonus of having a poker touranment with the team that everyone loved. I recommend Greg for any group because he did his homework and tailored his talk to the audience.

Thank you for the kind words, James. I enjoyed presenting to your group and love your music metaphor. Every speech is unique, and I'm glad I was able to open your mind in a positive manner.
Our team loved Greg and his stories and practical business experiences that they could take home and apply. Greg exceeded every expectation and then some. I wouldn't hesitate having Greg back with our team again. As a company we've seen the team energized and focused to exceed their goals.

What to Expect
They would get the most reliable speaker who lives to exceed expectations.
Greg arrives early, stays left, and engages with the participants.
Beyond his incredible content, the reason audiences love him is that he leads with his heart and people can feel how much he cares.
About
Greg Dinkin is a #1 Wall Street Journal bestselling author, decisions coach, and keynote speaker.
He was fat, broke, and stuck and learned the hard way that strategic tactics could only take him so far. When he combined the “poker mindset” with “mindfulness,” he won $100,000 at the World Series of Poker, lost 100 pounds, and built a world-class literary agency. In his acclaimed TEDxTalk on “Mind Shift”, Greg outlines an effective approach on how you can master your fears and make winning decisions to live a fulfilling life.
Greg draws on Eastern practices he learned while living in Thailand, studying with masters, and earning certification as a Health Coach. The former PwC consultant combines his pragmatic "poker mindset" and MBA in finance with holistic practices to show you that to make winning decisions in business, love, and life, you must first master yourself.
Greg is the author of The Poker MBA (Random House), The Leading Man (Vital), The Finance Doctor (Vital), and the collaborator on Patrick Bet-David's Your Next Five Moves (Simon & Schuster) and Amarillo Slim’s memoirs (HarperCollins).
Greg cofounded a literary agency that placed more than 130 books with major publishers and developed several films with Academy Award–winning actors and producers. He has served as a corporate spy for Inter-Continental Hotels, a change management consultant for PricewaterhouseCoopers, a housing coordinator for the Atlanta Olympic Village, and has sold portrait packages, office products, and home improvements.
A graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, he has written columns for Grantland, ThePostGame, Yahoo!, The Good Men Project, MeetMindful, and Card Player.
Greg has led workshops in Costa Rica, Saudi Arabia, and Thailand and has given keynote speeches for AOL, Skadden Arps law firm, The Cornell Club, Young Presidents Organization, Million Dollar Roundtable, and FIRMA, among others.
Greg loves to play guitar, sing, travel, do yoga, and play basketball.
