He started his first leadership development company over a decade ago, where Juan and his team constructed bespoke programming for category leading companies such as Disney, Fidelity, American Express, Nationwide, Sony Pictures & Zillow. Juan is the author of Confident By Choice (Penguin Random House, 2025).

Based on his research of over 250,000 leaders at institutions such as Oxford, Penn State and the University of Toronto, his science-backed framework helps leaders activate the confidence mindset to lead boldly, thrive through change, and ignite extraordinary growth. Considered by many as a walking shot of espresso, Juan’s dynamic blend of energy, humor and actionable advice empowers individuals to build unwavering confidence so that they can consistently show up at their best both personally and professionally.

“Juan’s energy is infectious. As soon as he steps on stage, he captures your attention. His message around not trying to be “the best”, but being “your best” really resonates on both a professional and personal level. It serves as a wonderful reminder that every day is an opportunity to improve. We walked away all feeling more energized and extremely upbeat!

Adding a Juan as a keynote to our Annual Sales Meeting was the first time we had done anything like this. It provided a palpable shift in energy that will serve us and we will come back to his messages as leaders throughout the year. People walked away with their own personal playbook on how to tap into Confidence, shifting perspective in such a positive way. It was amazing to hear each other share how we were impacted by the message and motivated to grow.
