“I met Greg White when I was a freshman at Marshall University. I had no idea how working for and with him for three and a half years would influence my life. Greg's powerful character, energy, tenacity, attention to detail, and passion to ALWAYS BE THE BEST, is present and undeniable as soon as he walks into a room. What I learned from not only listening to him, but watching him, has shaped the person, both personally and professionally, that I am today. I have seen him change and inspire both children and adults in mere moments and create an experience that they will never forget. I am truly blessed to have a mentor and friend in Greg White for the past 22 years and will continue to cherish that relationship for years to come." 

Chet R. Marshall 

International Speaker, Author and Executive Coach, Charleston, WV

“Spellbound, entertained and inspired are just a few of the words that immediately come to mind when thinking of Greg White and the impact he has with audiences. Greg’s goal is focused on making sure his message is received to positively influence, challenge and add value to each audience member. I’ve had the privilege of hearing most of the international’s best, and Greg White is among the elite regardless of the ages of his audience.  He delivers with incredible style. Standing ovations are great, but Greg is focused more on what each person is inspired to do when they walk out. More interested in “engagement” than entertainment, Greg White delivers.”

Charles J. Basham

General, United States Marine Corps, Okinawa, Japan

“Greg’s influence and inspiration changed my life. Since I met him, I have never been afraid to go after what I wanted. If I’ve fallen along the way, I have had the courage to stand up, dust myself off, and continue on my intended path. Greg White embodies everything a role model should be. He motivates everyone around him to aspire to greatness in all aspects of life.”
