Just to set foot on the stage at Carnegie Hall is a career moment for any performer. Mike Rayburn is one of a handful of people in the world to become a regular headliner at Carnegie Hall and to have recorded a live Mike Rayburn at Carnegie Hall CD . However, Mike performs most often for the world's leading corporations and associations, doing more than 100 presentations every year. Some clients have booked Mike as many as 10-12 times! His program is so unique he has been featured in USA Today, Newsweek, Billboard, Gig, Programming, American Entertainment and Successful Meetings magazines.

• What If...? - In a tight economy (or any economy), you need the most from your people. You need innovation. You need each associate to reach beyond and become, create and generate more than they (or you) ever thought possible. You need transformation. That's exactly what Mike Rayburn teaches... no, inspires in his amazing keynote, What If...? Mike is regularly cited in evaluations as "the best part of the whole conference," and "exactly what we needed and we didn't even know it." One Fortune 500 telecommunications company said, "Mike's 'What If...?' message has gone viral through our entire organization... and it's working!"
  
  Mike does what no other speaker can. In addition to being a brilliant guitarist and entertainer, Mike is an expert on personal development and human potential. Mike doesn't talk about what he's studied and heard about success. Mike shares what he knows from having achieved mega success! He doesn't use PowerPoint and tell you something works. He uses guitar and comedy and actually proves it before your eyes and ears. Big difference. Everyone says, "We need to think outside the box." No one teaches you how! In "What If...?" your attendees will learn three simple, powerful tools they can use immediately and forever to be able to leap beyond their perceived limitations. Mike is glad to tailor his program to include your theme and address your particular needs. It's simple, powerful and memorable. Oh, and it's hilarious!
  
  
• Classically Trained...Comically Derailed - Within the first 90 seconds you'll be amazed at Mike's guitar wizardry. Another 30 seconds and you'll realize you're in for one of the funniest and most unique shows you have ever seen. From Bach to rock, Mike's Classically Trained...Comically Derailed is an odyssey of masterful guitar, outrageous comedy and musical combinations you won't believe - Bruce Springsteen sings Green Acres. Led Zeppelin sings Dr. Seuss. Hendrix sings Cumbaya. "If Victor Borge played guitar (and drank too much coffee) he'd sound like Mike," says promoter, Mark Johnson. This is the show that has earned Mike standing ovations at all eight of his appearances at Carnegie Hall, has him starring on the strip in Las Vegas and, along with his keynote, keeps him booked one hundred or more times per year for corporations, associations, churches and theaters!
