Redefining the art and
science of public speaking

"Richard Greene is the best idea guy in America"

Called "The Master of Charisma" by The Sunday Times of London, Communication Strategist Richard Greene's focus is to help re-define the way we look at the world.

Over the past 30 years Richard, a former attorney, has re-defined human beings' greatest fear, Public Speaking, in his prestigious coffee table book, "Words That Shook The World", in over 100 lecture tours in 51 countries on 6 continents, giving Keynote Addresses on "The 7 Secrets of Public Speaking", conducting workshops and private sessions for Presidents, Prime Ministers, Presidential Candidates, Senators, Governors, CEOs and even Princess Diana, and being Communication Strategist on 7 Presidential/Prime Ministerial campaigns in 6 countries, serving as the Senior Judge in TLC's television series, "The Messengers" and with his TED Talk, "The 7 Secrets of The Greatest Speakers in History" with over 1.9 million views.

Richard presents his book, "Words That Shook The World: 100 Years of Unforgettable Speeches and Events" to His Holiness The 14th Dalai Lama

For three years, Richard's radio show, "Hollywood CLOUT!" helped re-define politics and make it more accessible by showcasing major celebrities and their political, environmental and philanthropic passions. A former Congressional Candidate and Fellow at The Constitutional Rights Foundation, Richard has also re-defined American Civics by condensing it into a single number with his www.279forChange.US campaign.

And his children's book, "E=MC2 and The New Definition of God" seeks to create a science based 21st Century understanding of the Universe that can be relevant to atheists and believers alike and help unify the world's religions.

In addition to his most popular Keynote, "The Art & Science of Charisma: The 7 Secrets of Public Speaking", Richard speaks on "The 4 Languages of Human Communication", "The New Definition of Listening" and "Re-Defining The World: The New 21st Century Definitions of Life, Death, God, Economics, Justice and Public Speaking".
