Jeremy Vaughn Clark | Keynote Speaker on Influence Without Authority

In his signature keynote, From Invisible to Undeniable, Jeremy teaches your audience how to influence without authority, so your teams move faster and your best people stay.

Using his RISEpoint Shift Framework (Spot It. Spark It. Show It.), your audience will:

- Catch the beliefs that keep them quiet
- Make a decision they’ve been sitting on
- Speak for their work and build trust as partners to the organization
- Leave with one clear step to take by Monday

Expect real stories, practical tools, and an engaging session tailored to your event. It’s a fit for leadership retreats, all-hands meetings, employee engagement events, and HR and L&D conferences, in person or virtually.

Jeremy Vaughn Clark knows what it costs to wait. After earning his MBA and building an HR career, he believed good work would speak for itself. Then, during COVID, he lost his father and then his job, and realized he had never built a voice strong enough to speak for his work.

He rebuilt by learning to use that voice. His affirmations became a book, the book led to a speech, and he kept going, even recording his first talks in an empty theater where the stage manager was his only audience.

Today, Jeremy is an award-winning keynote speaker, author, founder of RISEpoint Leadership, and Toastmasters District 100 champion. His voice also helped him return to HR at the management level, so he understands both your people and the leaders who depend on them.

Now he helps organizations do what he had to learn the hard way: teach employees to influence without authority, so your teams move faster and your best people stay.
