Failing Forward: Lessons in Resilience from Sales and Speaking Pro Larry Long Jr
Manage episode 514783061 series 3651180
Today on The Event Pro Show, we’re joined by the one and only Larry Long Jr., CEO (that’s Chief Energy Officer) of LLJR Enterprises, whose life mission is all about motivation, inspiration, and, most importantly, transformation. Host Seth Macchi takes us through Larry’s journey from his earliest event memory to his accidental but triumphant rise as a globally recognized professional speaker and coach.
Larry reveals how his background in sports, sales, and even a failed business venture shaped his approach to leadership and speaking. From launching a speaking career at the very start of the pandemic to embracing LinkedIn as a relationship-building tool, Larry emphasizes one guiding belief: success comes from mindset, optimism, and the small but intentional actions we take every day.
You’ll also hear his perspective on the future of corporate events, why engagement and interactivity are essential, and get a bold challenge to strengthen your professional relationships. Expect energizing quotes, plenty of laughs, and real wisdom from someone who lives what he teaches.
Get ready to raise your event game and your energy. This conversation with Larry Long, Jr. is one you won’t want to miss!
