Brian Miller Speaks - Human Connection Expert

As Seen on

When you treat interactions as transactions...

  • Disengagement spreads
  • Trust erodes
  • Turnover increases
  • Communication breaks down

But imagine if instead, we could all feel understood? Brian Miller's unique approach to human connection empowers individuals and organizations to build cultures of belonging that drive business and social impact.

Disengagement spreads

When team members or students don’t feel truly heard, they withdraw, leading to lower participation, motivation, and enthusiasm. As engagement drops, performance suffers, and team morale plummets, making it harder to achieve goals.

Trust erodes

Shallow interactions destroy trust, making it harder for people to collaborate or build meaningful relationships. Without trust, collaboration breaks down, silos form, and progress slows, stifling innovation and growth.

Turnover increases

Without genuine connection, individuals feel isolated, leading to burnout and frustration. This constant churn not only increases recruitment costs but also drains valuable institutional knowledge, affecting productivity and growth.

Communication breaks down

A lack of listening and understanding leads to inefficient communication, fueling misunderstandings and conflicts. Misaligned efforts and constant clarification wastes time, lowers productivity, and increases frustration.

Meet Brian Miller

Human Connection Speaker

I work with organizations, educators, and healthcare facilities who want to build an environment where everyone feels heard, understood, and valued. The desire for human connection is universal, and more crucial now than ever.

I’ve spoken and consulted across five continents. My TEDx talk “How to Magically Connect with Anyone” has been viewed over 3.6 million times worldwide. Publishers Weekly raved about my first book Three New People, “A cheery, instructive debut… Miller brilliantly outlines a system for deepening relationships.”

And my podcast Beyond Networking features intimate conversations with legends and leaders of industries, including Seth Godin, Shama Hyder, Julian Treasure, and Zoe Chance.

FAQs

Questions? We have answers.

How interactive is it?

That’s really up to you. On your pre-event call Brian will ask you detailed questions about your audience, the room design, and your desired outcome. Then he’ll discuss various interactive options, from call-and-respond to bringing volunteers on stage to full blown breakout discussions.

Is the program inclusive?

It’s a shame anyone has to ask that anymore. Yes, of COURSE! Brian goes out of his way to make sure his audience feels heard, understood, and valued - a living example of the very message he’s there to promote. No one gets made fun of, no one gets offended, and no one is left out - period.

How many people can attend?

Brian has spoken to audiences of thousands in giant theaters, and teams of 5 in boardrooms. So long as you have the tech to support the size of the audience, he can play to any size room.

Can the presentation be hybrid or virtual?

Absolutely. During the height of the pandemic, Brian presented nearly 200 virtual presentations. In doing so, he built a professional-grade broadcast studio that allows him to deliver world-class, high-production talks to anyone, anywhere, anytime.

Is this a magic show?

No. While Brian’s background in entertainment makes his presentations extra fun, his programs always put content, education, and action first. On your pre-event call, Brian will ask you what percentage of content to entertainment you’d like him to achieve.

Will Brian do some magic?

Absolutely. He uses magic tricks as visual examples during his presentation, and is happy to provide a bit of lighthearted entertainment during cocktail hour or elsewhere during your event if you ask, and it makes sense. Bring it up during your initial consultation with his team.

Can we purchase books to give away?

So long as we have at least 3 weeks notice, bulk orders of Brian’s book Three New People can be shipped to your event in advance. Brian will provide a complimentary book signing and meet-n-greet whenever bulk orders are made.
