“Scott was a huge hit, there was a line of people waiting to shake his hand and thank him when he was done. He really paid attention to Hannaford and where we are in our journey, and tailored his keynote perfectly. I’ve heard from many that he’s the best speaker they’ve ever seen, and they’ve seen many speakers. He rings with authenticity and kindness, and was exactly the inspiration and punctuation we were looking for, yay! He is some kind of special.”
Donna Desilets, VP HR | Hannaford
“I dare anyone to listen to a Scott Mautz keynote and not be captivated, moved and energized. This is a man with important things to say and share. And he has a true gift for saying and sharing those things in a manner that will pierce through the tyranny of the day’s to-do’s and distractions. We invited Scott to speak to an important gathering of our clients, all busy people with high standards. What did they think? Well, after Scott’s keynote, I was overwhelmed by their gratitude for the chance to hear him—and by their requests to have Scott speak to their companies. Scott is a world-class keynoter. I have hired Nobel Prize winners and New York Times bestsellers to keynote, and Scott was as good, and better than most of them. I predict he will quickly be as sought after as Pink, Gladwell, Collins, et al.”
Steve Kissing, Managing Partner | Wordsworth Communications
“Scott Mautz is inspiration personified. He captivated a group of leaders from around the globe at our Leadership Summit with a powerful, highly relevant, and supremely tailored message that fit our company and workforce and which drove maximum relevancy and impact (unlike canned talks I’ve heard from others). His one-of-a-kind blend of well-researched science and data, personal passion, and practical tools provided worked in equal parts to open our hearts and minds to his insights. He sparked profound introspection about how each of us can help build the high-performance culture to which we aspire.”
Scott Beal, President | Barr Brands
“Scott addressed a large group of global suppliers for GHSP at our annual supplier expectations day. I’ve had the opportunity to engage and listen to many keynote speakers through industry and leadership events, and Scott was one of the most impactful speakers I have encountered. He completely connected with the audience, delivered a compelling message which integrated with our theme, and challenged the group to bring purpose and meaning into the workplace. If you are considering a keynote speaker stop looking – hire Scott today!”
Kreig Kuiper, Global Purchasing Manager | GHSP
“Scott kicked off our Business Unit meeting with great energy, delivering a thought-provoking and inspirational message that was perfect to get our team fired up for the next leg of our turnaround journey. Scott’s point of difference is his combination of personal experience in business (he has been in our shoes) coupled with his engaging storytelling delivery that has everyone tuned in from start to finish. His message encourages everyone to take personal accountability for their inspiration giving insightful tips on what might be getting in their way and how they can overcome those barriers. Scott customizes his delivery to each client’s specific context so that it hits home.”
Noel Geoffrey, President | Kellogg’s Frozen Foods

“I first saw Scott speak at P&G and knew I had to hire him when I joined a new company. Scott is hands down one of the best speakers I have ever seen, leaving a lasting impact on those who have the privilege to hear him. His content is original, relevant, and immediately applicable, while his delivery is motivating and energizing. My organization provided feedback that bringing him in to speak was a “true gift” to the team.”
Jenny Harris, Senior Vice President | Ipsos UU
“Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of having a number of accomplished and inspirational speakers address my leadership team. These range from Fortune 500 CEO’s to national political leaders, to leaders from the world of social services. All of these incredible people notwithstanding, the one speaker who had the biggest impact on my team was Scott Mautz. Scott’s inspirational and accessible message connected with my team on a personal level and, most importantly, has stuck with them. The half-life of most inspirational talks tends to be very short. But not in Scott’s case. His message of living and leading with purpose continues to motivate and resonate.”
Steve Shifman, CEO | Michelman
“Scott Mautz, is a one-of-a-kind keynote speaker. Not only did he deliver an amazing and scholarly keynote for 250 doctoral students and faculty, but he stayed at our conference the whole day interacting with students to extend the conversation beyond the keynote. Scott is an engaging speaker with the ability to get people thinking beyond tomorrow. He spells out what it will take for transformational leaders to succeed in the knowledge-based economy of the future, providing a practical framework that audiences from any discipline can understand. We are excited to build this ongoing partnership with Scott in our doctoral program and look forward to more presentations and collaborative activities in the future. ”

“I, and the entire Tide Dry Cleaners Franchise System that attended the Tide Dry Cleaners Annual Franchise Convention in Las Vegas, really enjoyed listening to Mr. Mautz as he discussed “meaning,” at work and in life. Not only do these emotional connections and opportunities make life more fulfilling, helping yourself and others find meaning “is just the right thing to do.” “Make It Matter” is a great read, and provides strong motivation to really think about what is important… ”
Thomas Flaherty, President & CEO | Agile Pursuits Franchising, Inc.
“Scott recently spoke to 200+ employees at our Annual Company Retreat about making it matter and finding your motivation at work. This keynote left the audience chattering about their internal significance in the office and how they were going to create unique opportunities of personal growth. The presentation was engaging and inspiring, and was a great kickoff to goal setting for the new year. ”
Dave Kroeger, President | Pep

Scott shared a great presentation to our group of leaders expressing the “why” and the “how” to Make it Matter. His straightforward story-telling was very well received and left our guests both inspired and challenged to find a deeper sense of meaning and fulfillment in the work they do each day.”
Ann Baarman, Program & Marketing Coordinator | Michigan West Coast Chamber of Commerce
“Scott connects with his audience through his illustrative storytelling, personable delivery and thought-provoking content. He addresses the fears and challenges that we all face, and gives practical advice to become the best version of you – both within the workplace and in life.”
Helen Wright Johnsen, SVP Group Director | Carat
“Every month we select a nationally or internationally acclaimed leadership expert to come and speak to the mid-market CEOs in the greater Portland metro area. Scott brought exceptional value to our CEO Conclave because he delivered not only an engaging, audience-specific talk to our CEOs, but his ideas were practical, easily executable, and will clearly have a sustainable impact on engagement and productivity in any organization. After Scott’s talk, almost every CEOs in attendance requested a copy of Scott’s presentation (in addition to his book “Make It Matter” which they all received). Scott’s practical approach to creating meaning at work for all employees is now beginning to have a very positive impact in several companies in this region.”
Robert E. Fiske, CEO | Chief Executives Guild
We had the pleasure of having Scott come talk to our managers about why engaging with employees is so important and that each and every one of us leaves our legacy behind with our people ~ Scott brings his personal legacy alive and has inspired not just our managers, but those around him. Thank you for taking the time to improve others and make us all believe in our employees!”
KC Rose, VP of Human Resources | Gannett
“Scott was a major asset to our meeting and delivered the right message at the right time. He worked hard in advance of the presentation to get to know us and our organization and the results show. His interactive presentation kept our people engaged – even after a very long day of meetings. I look forward to seeing Scott again in the future and would definitely recommend him to others.”
Bert Powell | AXA Advisor and NAF Chairman
“Scott’s ability to capture a historical event, connect the significance of why that event was pivotal and meaningful to more than just those affected, and his strong research to support the process that was used to prove these connections is what makes him a differentiator in organizational culture. Every corporation or organization needs to engage their employees in Making It Matter through Scott’s facilitation or leadership.”
Mike Gallina, Vice President-Outreach Services | AultCare
“Binghamton University is incredibly proud of alumnus Scott Mautz ’91 and his accomplishments. He returned to campus to deliver the keynote address at our 2016 Alumni Leaders Conference. Scott’s meaningful, inspiring and impactful presentation, “The Lighthouse of Legacy” truly resonated with our conference attendees. He addressed the power of articulating and pursuing a legacy in the work that you do (and in life), and how to do it with clear takeaways. Scott is a consummate professional and was an absolute pleasure to work with.”
