One of the most recognized motivational speakers in Canada, Patrick Leroux has given nearly 2,000 presentations throughout his successful career. Leroux is a true believer that every person and organization has enormous potential for success, and he’s dedicated his life to helping others realize their potential and achieve their goals.
After struggling with suicidal thoughts earlier in his life, he later began to study why certain people are more successful and more motivated than others. This led him to the realization that everyone has the ability to achieve extraordinary success and each person is responsible for their fate. His motivational speeches encourage listeners to step out of their comfort zone to improve performance, optimize leadership, and increase income. His presentations offer original ideas delivered with high energy that challenge people to re-evaluate their own limitations and live up to their true capacity.
Fully bilingual, Leroux is the founding president and former board member of the Montreal chapter of the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers (CAPS). In 2002, he became the first person in Quebec to have earned the Certified Speaking Professional (CSP) designation. He’s also the author of nine books and ten online training programs that focus on motivation and personal and professional development. Speaking often at conferences and sales conventions, Leroux is known for his ability to generate commitment and enthusiasm with his audience that lasts long after his presentation is over.
