Steve Bunin

"The difference was immediate."

Helping kids has been a lifelong passion, and I'm so grateful that I sometimes get to do that as an executive coach - by helping the adults whose work changes the lives of children.

That was the case for this major school in the Washington, DC area, whose fundraising was on the line when an old friend - the head of school Aviva Walls - called.

I am humbled for her testimonial. Please reach out if I can help your company in a similar way.

"I hired Steve to work with an executive on my team who was highly talented but struggled with confidence and organization in public speaking. Steve helped her structure her presentations and cut out filler words, and the difference was immediate. She became noticeably more prepared and confident presenting to parents, colleagues, and our Board of Trustees."

You know Tom Cruise in Top Gun?

Well, I was honored to share the stage with an actual U.S. Navy Strike Fighter pilot -- Art delaCruz, now the COO of the American Cancer Society.

Just part of my hosting duties for the King County Search and Rescue Association annual gala, celebrating TRUE heroes.

Reach out if you'd like me to host your event. Thank you, KCSARA, for bringing me in. See you in 2027!

First week as empty-nesters since before this pic was taken on a beach in Brazil.

Any tips for how to navigate the new ?

Took my talents to for the National Sheriffs Association's annual conference.

👮 And thank you to the Chief Deputy with 39 years on the job, who blindsided me when he wrote this to me - unsolicited - after.

"I've been doing this job for a long time, and I found the techniques you shared to be some of the simplest, most practical, and effective approaches I've seen. I was able to walk away with some steps that I will be able to put into practice right away."

Coaching Founders & CEO's is so rewarding for me...

Leah Hill and I worked together for two years on so many important traits for a company leader - executive presence, elevator pitch, sales strategy, consumer dynamics, brand awareness, how to close more effectively, and more... and she eventually conquered a longtime goal that had caused a ton of anxiety - appearing on television. She did it and she slayed it.

Leah started Divorce Strategies Northwest LLC to help people get through one of life's most traumatic experiences. It's inspiring to think about how many people she's guided over the years. I was honored to guide her, and I'm very grateful for her kind words.

"The work I did with Steve was some of the most interesting and empowering of my career. He helped me grow both professionally and personally, build greater confidence, and better understand how to present myself and my business. I use the concepts we developed together every day. He is positive, encouraging, exceptionally professional, and a true leader in his field."

A lot of the skills that work in Network TV also work in sales... most importantly - storytelling.

One company that's figured it out is IKO Roofing, and I'm so honored that they've now brought me to 5 (!) different cities to provide sales training to their most important people.

Roofers are incredible 20-feet up in the air, but they make their money when they're on the porch or in the kitchen, closing the deal.

If a $1.5-Billion company like IKO is getting great value out of it, there's no reason your company can't. DM me if I can help.
