Elliot Kay
Serial Award-Winning Entrepreneur, Author, and Communication Expert
About
Elliot Kay's journey is a rollercoaster of grit and transformation. Growing up in the shadows of addiction and neglect, dodging threats on mean streets, Elliot didn't just survive - he thrived. He's taken those hard-knock lessons and turned them into rocket fuel for success, building thriving businesses and penning six books along the way.
For over 15 years, Elliot's been the go-to guy for all things communication. He's not your typical polished speaker - he's real, he's raw, and he gets results. Elliot's secret sauce? The Ecology of Influence in Communication. He breaks it down like this:
Purpose: Keeping it real with intention
Audience: Knowing who you're talking to and how they tick
Structures: Mixing up your delivery for maximum impact
Content: Dropping knowledge bombs that elevate and empower
Tools: Mastering everything from old-school platforms to cutting-edge AI
Elliot's not just about business. He's lived through the struggle of dyslexia, felt the sting of being an outsider, and knows what it's like to build something from nothing. When he talks about confidence and overcoming hurdles, it's not from a textbook - it's from the school of hard knocks.
