"A passionate educator, an award-winning film producer, a far reaching world traveler, and an acclaimed expert in the human experience, Greg creates a visual display of words and action every time he takes the stage. He has been called upon to speak before Fortune 500 companies, major universities, and public audiences worldwide. He works with clients to customize his presentation to maximize the impact for their events.

Greg focuses on group dynamics and communication skills, with an emphasis on how emotional intelligence plays a role in personal and collective development. Far too many people miss actually living their lives. They ponder and wonder and wait and hope, and as they stay entirely in their heads trying to figure out their next move, they ignore their hearts and the opportunities they have waited so desperately for slip by unnoticed. These are people who get lost in the moment to moment trivialities of life without challenging themselves to face the bigger picture and more importantly, without ever asking honestly what it is that would make their lives valuable and meaningful. Greg uses words as weapons to cut to the core of these questions and does so in a way which leaves audience members inspired, entertained, and amazed.

Greg is a recognized expert in the field of life enhancement, having produced a multi-award winning, internationally acclaimed feature film (Flight From Death: The Quest for Immortality) about the topic, as well as sitting on the advisory board of an international organization dedicated to increasing human inspiration and compassion. He was the singer for the Seattle rock band Trial who toured the world exploring the human condition via music and action. He is actively sought out for interviews and articles from media sources worldwide.

Co-producer and co-writer of multi-award winning documentaries such as Flight From Death (http://www.flightfromdeath.com) and The Philosopher Kings (http://www.philosopherkingsmovie.com).

Greg released the critically-acclaimed "Flight from Death: The Quest For Immortality", a documentary about death anxiety, inspired by the works and writings of cultural anthropologist and social theorist Dr. Ernest Becker with his film partner Patrick Shen from Transcendental Media. The film began touring film festivals around the world in 2003 and was released on DVD in 2006. The film won seven "Best Documentary" and "Best Feature" awards at film festivals around the world. It has been screened throughout the United States, Canada, Europe, Africa, and Australia and has been used in over a hundred colleges and universities as a means of initiating discussions on aggression and how to curb violence worldwide.

Testimonials:

"I don't write many recommendations, but I must say, GREG BENNICK is a sensational presenter. His giftedness is almost "off the charts." As the founder of an entertainment agency and long time event professional, I have booked him many times and have seen the effect he has on audiences and the impact he brings to events. I've been present to see him speak to corporate audiences in sizes from ten people up to two thousand people. I knew we'd have an excellent professional relationship when he received a standing ovation from the very first group to whom I had him present. I have personally seen Greg use humor, persuasiveness, and tons of creativity to wow audiences across the country. Its seemingly effortless with him. He is able to tie together complex client-specific initiatives with easy-to-understand messages about how to best live life and fulfill oneself on a personal level. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! -Adam Christing”
