Deliver impact that lasts

Binod is not a motivational speaker. In fact, he intensely dislikes being called one! Because unlike the average ‘motivational’ talk that leaves you on a high but with very little of substance, Binod’s talks are packed with brutal honesty, real-world insights and actionable advice (with a dash of adventure). Expect a kick-ass keynote that doesn’t just inspire but pushes your audience to think, act, and transform.
