Alvin Law, award-winning musician and attitude strategist, works with organisations to cultivate personal leadership, growth mindset, and accountability. Backed by CSP designation, Canadian Speakers Hall of Fame induction, and a client roster spanning 7,500 organisations on five continents.


Alvin Law is an international keynote speaker, award-winning musician, and bestselling author who has spoken to more than two million people across five continents in a career spanning over four decades.
Born without arms as a result of thalidomide, Alvin draws on his experience of learning to navigate the world using his feet instead of hands to show audiences that the stories we tell ourselves about our limitations are often the real obstacle. The subject of three award-winning documentaries, Alvin has helped raise more than $175 million for charity.
Alvin is a Certified Speaking Professional and a member of the Canadian Association of Speakers Hall of Fame. He has delivered keynotes to over 7,500 organisations, including TELUS, RBC, Sun Life, Enbridge, and ConocoPhillips. Drawing on storytelling, live musical performance on snare drum and piano, and his signature down-to-earth humour, he builds the case that leadership, responsibility, and resilience are learnable attitudes, not fixed traits.
Book Alvin Law to give your audience a genuine shift in how they see themselves and what they believe they can do.
Topics, sessions and talks
Every person in every room carries a story about what they can't do, who they're not, or what the world won't allow them. Alvin Law built a four-decade career dismantling exactly those stories. Drawing on his experience of being born without arms and building a life that defied every prediction made about him, Alvin presents practical tools for cultivating attitudes of personal leadership, responsibility, and resilience. Audiences leave with concrete frameworks for reframing obstacles, recognising their own value, and stepping into accountability at work and at home. Delivered with humour, live musical performance, and a storytelling depth that makes the lessons stick.

Email alvin.law@getapeptalk.com or call PepTalk on +44 20 3835 2929 (UK) or +1 737 888 5112 (US), and one of our speaker agents will contact you within hours to confirm Alvin's availability and fees. If you can, please include your budget upfront – it helps us fast-track your request. It’s also helpful to know the date, format (virtual or in-person), location, and a bit about your audience.
No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
