#1 Mike's Keynote: “What If and Why Not?” (entertainment and message)

Featured on the cover of Successful Meetings Magazine

We hear it all the time, “We need to think outside the box,” right? So... how exactly does one do that?

In his hilarious, musically amazing, motivational keynote, “What If... and Why Not?” Mike Rayburn does what no other presenter can do. Not only is Mike a world-class guitarist and stand-up comedian, he is an authority on personal development and human potential. In this energetic presentation Mike uses his guitar and comedy to teach three simple, powerful tools attendees can use immediately and forever to access their unrealized potential, to look at old things in a new way, and to leap beyond their perceived limitations. These are the tools which took Mike from playing for seven people in a bar in Virginia to standing ovations at Carnegie Hall. They work. For anyone And everyone. Always.

It is one thing to say that something is true. It’s completely another to actually prove it right there on stage. That is exactly what Mike Rayburn does. He can also tailor his presentation to address and include your theme. Your attendees will leave Mike’s program energized and totally inspired to take on new challenges. Oh, and they’ll laugh so hard it hurts!

“What If and Why Not?” is perfect for opening and closing keynotes and anywhere you need a light but powerful message delivered with uproarious, musically amazing entertainment!

Mike can also focus his program completely on entertainment. “Classically Trained, Comically Derailed” is Mike Rayburn’s critically acclaimed odyssey of masterful guitar; clever, universally appealing comedy; and musical combinations God never intended.

“A comic genius... enough wit and talent to jumpstart a pacemaker!” raves the Aspen Daily News.

When your attendees have had an intense day of break-out sessions and need to relax and unwind, or when they need an energy lift in the beginning or middle of the day, Mike Rayburn is the answer.

“If Victor Borge played guitar (and drank too much coffee) he’d sound like Mike,” says Carnegie Hall promoter, Mark Johnson.

“Classically Trained, Comically Derailed” is perfect for after-dinner presentations, awards shows, and anywhere your event needs to be energized and totally entertained!
