Kevin McCarthy is the author of the bestselling book, BlindSpots – Why Good People Make Bad Choices, and holds the highest certification recognized globally by the speaking industry, the Certified Speaking Professional.

An award-winning sales professional, he built one of the largest Century 21 offices in America, then developed and sold a dot-com startup. In 2004, his boss was arrested for the largest stock fraud in Washington State history. As a result, Kevin spent 33 months in federal prison for a crime he didn’t knowingly commit. There he studied Cognitive Psychology and recognized — then deeply researched — the blind spots that lead to his predicament.

Today, Kevin and his team empower leaders to uncover their blind spots, harness their innate talent, and drive peak performance through enhanced self-awareness and emotional intelligence.
