Chad Foster
Chad E. Foster is not just a keynote speaker. He is a driving force for performance in times of constant change.
After losing his eyesight at the age of 21, Chad went on to become a Harvard-educated executive, technology innovator, and leader behind billion-dollar business outcomes. He has built CRM solutions once deemed impossible by Oracle, developed growth strategies delivering industry-leading margins, and achieved elite athletic feats as a black-diamond skier and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner — all without sight. His story is living proof that limits only exist when we accept them.
What sets Chad apart is that he doesn’t stop at inspiration. He equips leaders and teams with practical tools they can use immediately. Through his Blind Ambition Framework™, Chad combines human performance principles with the realities of the AI-driven business landscape. The result is a clear, actionable approach to building resilient teams, accountable cultures, and sales organizations that perform under pressure.

Whether addressing leadership, innovation, change, or sales performance, Chad delivers strategies that translate directly into action. His talks challenge assumptions, sharpen decision-making, and help organizations thrive when the stakes are high.
Global brands such as Google, Salesforce, ADP, and Blue Cross trust Chad to elevate performance across their teams. One client reported a 40 percent year-over-year revenue increase following a single keynote, describing the experience as unlike anything they had seen from a guest speaker.
Chad Foster does not deliver feel-good motivation. He delivers a performance framework that shifts mindsets, raises standards, and drives measurable results — bridging inspiration and execution.
Wolfram Sauer's opinion on Chad Foster
Chad E. Foster speaks with an authority you don’t question, because it’s earned the hard way. What makes his talks land is not the story alone, but the discipline behind it. He’s relentlessly practical, almost uncompromising, when it comes to performance and accountability. You don’t leave feeling inspired in the abstract. You leave knowing where you’ve been holding back — and what it will take to move the needle when pressure is real.
