Finding True Community

Shane Feldman believes community is the answer to every question and the solution to every problem. Having researched community leadership in 30 countries, Feldman has uncovered universal strategies for building engaged communities. Today, he helps leading organizations, including Fortune 500s, optimize team culture and leadership for increased talent and client retention. Through his customizable, high-energy keynotes, Feldman shows audiences how to cultivate community-centred workplaces that enable individuals and teams to perform at their highest levels.

In this digital age of distraction and disconnection, leaders are facing a community crisis spanning all generations. Feldman’s “Leadership Passport” framework helps counteract this crisis by equipping leaders with the strategies needed to cultivate community, build better relationships, and increase engagement across organizations. He has worked with such dynamic brands as Disney, YPO, Google, TD Bank, Shopify, and Kaiser Permanente.

A serial entrepreneur, Feldman is the founder of Count Me In, the world-renowned social entrepreneurship incubator. Since launching in 2011, it has grown into a global community of 10 million next-gen leaders from more than 100 countries. It has also initiated more than 30,000 ventures worldwide, contributing a value of over $2.6 billion to the global economy through service.

Named one of North America’s Top 40 Under 40 LGBTQ2+ Leaders, Feldman has been recognized by the White House, the Prime Minister of Canada, and the United Nations for his accomplishments in community leadership. He has also been featured in top media outlets including OprahLarry King, Dr. Oz, Forbes, and People magazine.

Client reviews

  • Shane Feldman was our closing keynote at a recent conference (he has now spoken at 4 conferences for PwC) and was an absolute joy to work with. His session was rated one of the best and people could not stop talking about him. Shane provides a framework for building better relationships internally and externally. His research and insights were both inspiring and actionable, and his energy is exactly what we needed to close out the conference. Our goal was twofold: increase employee engagement; provide our people with the soft skills to work together better. With a high volume of internal change (new initiatives, new processes, new leadership, new requirements for hybrid teams) we needed a speaker who was not only an expert on relationship building and team performance, but also one with experience in change management. We could not have dreamed of a better fit than Shane Feldman. He worked hard to customize his keynotes so they were a perfect fit for our people and objectives. His stories are captivating, his energy is contagious, and his strategies and frameworks have left a huge impact at the firm. Thank you so much Shane, I very much look forward to working with you again!

  • After interviewing several speakers, it was clear Shane Feldman was the best choice for our T-Mobile leaders event! Shane’s experience as it relates to community and leadership perfectly aligned with our organization’s values. Shane embraced T-Mobile’s Values in Action, weaving them into his presentation, and even wore our T-Mobile gear! Shane completely “T-Mobilized” his keynote — it was beyond impressive! He was genuinely invested in our program and received outstanding reviews from our participants. Shane knows how to capture the attention of an audience, he is knowledgeable, energetic, relatable, and inspiring. We would recommend Shane to any organization looking for a moving, memorable, and inspirational keynote with actionable takeaways. Thank you, Shane!

  • Shane Feldman kicked off our event perfectly! His energy was contagious, and his stories were captivating. The D4G Conference at Facebook would not have been the same without Shane, and we’re grateful he was able to be part of the event. His message inspired the entire audience to think bigger and attendees left feeling hopeful, energized, and ready to take action. A joy to work with, Shane is humble, kind and inspiring on stage and off.

  • Shane’s presentation was very inspiring, and it left us with a very clear call to action – that changing the world can happen daily with small acts of kindness and compassion.

  • We have fond memories of the HATCHx event that we held here a few months ago. I spoke with some teammembers recently and they said it was one of the best events ever that we held for our young professionals. They are continuing with other YP events and we’ve seen a pick up of interest since our time together.

    Keeping you in mind for another one of our internal events!

  • Shane’s speech has left a lasting impression, and our team continues to receive positive feedback from attendees. He recognized the nuances that were important to the audience, and creatively incorporated our conference themes into his talk.

  • Shane had the ability to reach every member of our audience and convey his message. He has the gift of being able to connect. I understand why Shane is one of the most sought after and influential speakers in this field.

  • During our National Cluster Meeting, Shane inspired over 1,200 FCCLA members, advisers, and guests. The meeting could not have been as successful without Shane’s energizing presentation.

  • Shane was personable, relatable and inspiring. By inviting an individual with Shane’s stature and notoriety to present at our summits, we succeeded in inducing a higher attendance and reputation for our events.

  • Shane talks about being authentic, being your true self, and looking for the good that is in you that you can share. He taught us about the upsides of the uber connected world, and brought home the message that a legacy isn’t something you leave, it is something you live.

  • One of the most impressive, authentic people I’ve ever met is Shane Feldman, demonstrating self-awareness more often associated with people three or four times his age.

  • Shane’s meaningful and thought-provoking words acted as catalyst for important conversations, and helped make our event more impactful. I’ve never experienced another speaker like him. Definitely worth the investment.
