Ian Godwin is one of the United States most dynamic speakers, bringing an energy and enthusiasm that is truly contagious. Praised by industry legends like Ray Scott, Al Lindner, Trey Kistler, Chuck Bauer, Art Ferguson, etc… Ian brings a fresh and inspiring vigor, pulling from a myriad of personal and professional experiences to deliver a message that is both physically motivating as well as emotionally moving. Comfortable in any setting from a small sporting goods store to a fishing expo to a 30,000-seat coliseum weigh-in, Ian has the proven ability to recognize what it takes to educate, promote and move an audience to action.
Unlike some rehearsed professional speakers who put out a canned and contrived presentation full of “buzz words and bravado”, Ian’s approach is one that is flexible, real and down-to-earth. Ian’s understanding of group dynamics and personality styles allows him to deliver a more focused and direct talk that really has the impact you are looking for, all the while entertaining and engaging the audience.
Ian’s long history and corporate background in the fishing industry as the CEO and President of “Sport Fishing Ventures Unlimited”, a multi-diverse fishing industry business development, sales distribution and consulting firm, provides him with a broad repertoire to pull from. Whether your mission is to motivate an internal tackle supply sales force or re-direct a corporation’s pro-staff management or inspire a group of wayward teenagers, Ian’s life and personal testimony serves as an inspiring backdrop for the message you want delivered.
His passion for life, people and the sport of fishing is evident in all that he does and that comes through in not only his words but also his actions. We invite you to take that next action step, book Ian to speak at your next engagement, seminar, workshop or sports show and be ready to be moved and motivated, touched and inspired, educated and enlightened but most of all, glad you did!
