Personal Background
Vince Poscente is just a guy who’s curious about life, loves a good challenge, and happens to have a master’s degree in Organizational Management. Sure, he’s climbed Himalayan peaks and raced internationally in Adventure Racing, but he’s equally proud of being a DIY and compost nerd (ask him about his greenhouse), a dad to three extraordinary kids, and being married to the same incredible gal for almost three decades.
When he’s not delivering keynotes, writing books, or coaching executives you might find Vince playing rec hockey in Dallas, savoring a bowl of Häagen-Dazs coffee ice cream (his weakness), or building some project around the house.
Guided by curiosity, a thirst for adventure, and a solid dose of humor, Vince’s journey inspires others to embrace challenges and discover the extraordinary within themselves.
