Nathan Minns

Expect a funny, high-energy, interactive experience! Using improv comedy principles, I help audiences communicate confidently, think on their feet, and work better together. Activities are welcoming, and participation is always optional. As an emcee, I keep your event moving and your audience engaged.

Nathan Minns is a keynote speaker, workshop facilitator, and the creator of Pivot Pitch, a communication game played by more than 50,000 professionals. With 10 years of improv comedy behind him, he teaches people how to communicate under pressure. He has delivered 250+ sessions in 12 countries across 5 continents for organizations including the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Cardinal Health, Entrepreneurs' Organization, SHRM, and Techstars, and he has coached 100+ venture-backed founders. He built his first online course hoping two people would take it, and 65,000 signed up across 179 countries. He started his first business at seven, selling rocks he found under his deck for $5 each (yes, people actually bought them).

For larger groups, I need a wireless microphone. Interactive keynotes require two additional wireless handheld microphones for audience participation. A small table offstage and upbeat, clean walk-on music are helpful. I’ll coordinate details with you in advance.
