Absolutely Perfect!

Troy did an amazing job speaking to over 600 students. He made them feel like they were a part of the speech and had their complete attention the entire time. He gave them real-world examples and a great message of encouragement about doing their best and never giving up. It was an absolute homerun. We would recommend him for your event!

A voice for this generation.

Troy McClain is not only gifted but skilled in speaking to his audience. My experience working with Troy was exceptional. His business etiquette is at a level of excellence: preparation, knowledge, support, and delivery. Troy speaks professionally but personal. He is tactical but truthful. I would recommend him to inspire a room of all ages.

Professional Speaker

In my opinion, there are five essential qualities that all public speakers need in order to  strengthen and reinforce a consequential impact on their audiences.  The first quality is confidence.  A confident speaker is accurate, competent, credible, intelligent, knowledgeable, and likable.
The second quality is passion. A great public speaker must have a passion for speaking.  When you are passionate about something, you are enthusiastic and eager to perform it. 
The third quality if a great public speaker is introspection and self awareness. They understand who they are and what they stand for. They are able to realistically evaluate their strengths and weakness and constantly work toward becoming better.  Public speakers are able to think critically during a presentation and work toward becoming better by taking notes of what they think is lacking in their presentations while capitalizing on their strong qualities!
The fourth quality of a great motivational speaker is their ability to engage with their audience as much as they possibly can. They are empathetic and selfless towards their audiences And strive to understand their challenges, concerns, and hopes.
The fifth essential quality of a great motivational speaker is his or her knowledge and expertise in a particular area.  People will seek their services based on the knowledge they have. 

I have known Troy T. McClain, CEO of T.T.McClain Enterprises for over 18 years and I have watched him evolve into one of the most influential speakers of our time.  Troy T. McClain is passionate about investing in people’s lives and making their lives more meaningful. Because He is empathetic compassionate and selfless, He is able to engage in all types of audiences . His own story inspires other people to reach higher, giving them hope that they too can overcome their challenges and achieve their life-long goals.
