"I experience speakers that I won't see anywhere else. The people that attend are decision makers in their organizations, and they're active and interested. I take a lot away from not only the presentations, but the conversations with other attendees." – Mel Simon, President, Styer Transportation

At the Cottingham & Butler Transportation Summit, our keynote speakers bring insight that's only learned through first-hand experiences.

▪️ John O'Leary survived burns covering 100% of his body at age 9 and was given a 1% chance of living. He made it out, rebuilt his life, and has spent it teaching leaders how to turn their hardest moments into their most defining ones.

▪️ Rorke Denver commanded Navy SEAL operators in Iraq and Afghanistan. Every leadership principle he brings to this stage was tested in environments where the wrong decision cost lives.

These are speakers who will hand you a framework and raise the bar for what you expect from yourself and your team. You'll walk away with a different lens for how you lead and a clearer picture of what's possible. This is the room you want to be in.
