Ryan Harris is a Super Bowl 50 champion who spent ten years in the NFL as a starting offensive lineman, protecting Peyton Manning for the Denver Broncos' championship-winning 2015 season.
A Notre Dame graduate with degrees in Economics and Political Science, Ryan was drafted by the Broncos in the third round of the 2007 NFL Draft and started every game of his Super Bowl-winning season. Since retiring in 2017, he has built a career in broadcasting as color commentator for Notre Dame football radio and host of CBS Sports' Fantasy Football Hour. He is the author of Mindset for Mastery, a guide to reaching personal and professional potential drawn from his NFL journey.
As a keynote speaker, Ryan has worked with organizations including Google, Microsoft, Lululemon, Wells Fargo, Chase, and RBC, delivering high-energy talks on leadership, team culture, resilience, and financial literacy. He is known for tailoring his message closely to each audience and for being, in his own words, the easiest speaker a client will ever work with.
Audiences leave with a practical framework for authentic leadership, a sharper relationship with failure and success, and tools to build financial freedom, translated directly from the discipline and teamwork of a championship NFL locker room.

Ryan Harris helps audiences break free of limiting beliefs and the performance cycles that keep good enough from becoming great, drawing on the mindset behind his book Mindset for Mastery.

High-energy and deeply personal, this talk leaves every attendee believing in the champion already sitting inside them.
Ryan Harris breaks down the five components of championship leadership drawn directly from his ten years in the NFL and a Super Bowl 50 title with the Denver Broncos.

Audiences leave with a clear sense of their own leadership style and a practical way to help colleagues perform at their best.
Ryan Harris shows teams the difference between achieving something once and being consistently great at it, using lessons drawn from championship NFL locker rooms. Through simple, interactive exercises, he helps colleagues understand their team's dynamics, uncover their individual roles, and build the honesty that strong cultures depend on. The session is built for energy and genuine fun, leaving teams with sharper working relationships and a shared framework for measuring progress long after the event ends.
Ryan Harris teaches audiences the three fundamental rules of the money game that wealthy people practice every day: save, invest, and delay. Using stories about his own financial choices and those of others, he highlights the gap between what people say they value and what they actually spend on, and shows how small, disciplined actions compound into genuine financial freedom. Practical and personal, this session leaves attendees with a new, more intentional relationship with every purchase they make.
