Tyler Hayden presented exactly what he guaranteed. The session was informative, motivational and entertaining! Tyler wrapped up our conference with a bang! Participants left energized and motivated to set their own goals and to go out there and get them! Well done, thank you Tyler!

Manager

Saying Tyler Hayden is a motivational speaker is like comparing a VW Beetle to the Space Shuttle. He is much much more… I cannot recommend Tyler enough. He has an unbelievable talent for bringing together people from diverse backgrounds including cross-generations. 

General Manager
Honeywell

We worked with Tyler Hayden for 4 years as our main stage host. Every year he reinvented himself, bringing amazing audience participation, engaging dialogue with keynoters, and a fun yet professional image to our event. I would not hesitate for a moment to recommend Tyler as your EMCEE and Keynote solution for your next event.

Past President
PMI SAC

Feedback from the participants was glowing for both presentations. Light it Up was an exciting ice breaker for the crowd and really made sure participants met everyone at their table. Interestingly, I personally had even more feedback on Livin Life Large, where people seemed to really connect with the messages of “one little thing today”, “be a little outside of your comfort zone”, and “enthusiasm is caught, not taught.

Senior Director

Customer Insights and Loyalty, Lawtons Drugs

This is our second year working with Tyler Hayden, and it has been great. The energy he brings to the conference is infectious and his messages are delivered in a style that is entertaining and thought-provoking at the same time. The vendors at our conference rave about how great the “Light it Up” event works to showcase their product or company in such a fun and entertaining way. It was a pleasure to have him.
