About the Author

John Niland

Professional speaker on how self-worth empowers people to value their lives and their work; so that they have more impact and raise the value of what they do.

John is best known for one word: value. Since 2000, his insightful and humorous presentations at international conferences focus on practical ways to raise the value of services and products - in a world that's often hell-bent on devaluing them.

Over the past few years, John's presentations linking self-worth to professional success have won widespread acclaim and the book "The Self-Worth Safari" is scheduled for publication in Spring 2019.

John’s core message is simple: when you grasp the vital distinction between self-worth and self esteem, this is a game-changer at work and in life. You become more courageous in conversations. You bounce back quickly from setbacks. You do higher-value work and connect authentically at a human level. As a leader, you inspire others.
