About
I am an energetic and positive person, with a deep understanding of human nature and I make learning fun. Rather than just speak to the audience, I engage the group so the experience can be more relevant and meaningful. I do this through exercises with audience participation and through magic. As an award-winning magician, I often insert magic into the presentation to make a point and to make the audience feel as though they are part of the event. Two of my presentations include "Add Magic to Your Life", where purpose and mental attitude join to achieve success. The second presentation, Adding Magic to your Leadership" shows leaders the importance of aligning organization and employee purpose. I enjoy meeting people in various walks of life and feeling that I am having an impact on their lives. My many years as a management consultant taught me not only about businesses, but also about people. I value the lessons learned through those experiences. Giving presentations allows me to reach a large group of people with a positive message and have them feel that something meaningful has been given to them. I bring energy to the group, and it is rewarding to see the group feed off that energy and get inspired to go out and change or create new things in their lives.

Alan went above and beyond in every aspect of his presentations to my 18 high school students. He spent time tailoring the presentation to their needs and interests. His presentation on finding out "why" was exactly what seniors needed to hear before venturing off into the world. Though the presentation was largely on their role as an individual and within a corporation, he sprinkled in magic to keep everyone engaged. My students rated this speaker a 11/10. They LOVED Alan Leeds and we will definitely be asking him to influence more students in the future!

Alan's presentation was both valuable and entertaining. Our employees loved having him and he customized his message to match perfectly with the other speakers of the day. I really appreciate that he arrived early and got some one-on-one time with both our CEO and staff.

I work for a County agency in Santa Clara and we hired Alan through Thumbtack for an Offsite Training hosted at a County park. Throughout the experience Alan was very professional and answered all my questions and requests in a timely manner. He took the time to learn about our division and what we do as well as what we would like to learn. We chose the theme "Improving Attitudes for Successful Outcomes: How attitudes can improve both personal and professional achievement" in which he spoke on “The Luck Factor” and “The As If Principle”. He kept our staff engaged and entertained throughout the talk and included ways to earn points to get staff involved (tied into our team building activities). Our staff also enjoyed the close up magic while they ate lunch. We were all very happy - highly recommended.
