See Him Live
A taste of the room.
Sixty seconds from a recent keynote. The energy, the honesty, and the one question that sticks with a room: if you were more disciplined, how could you not have a good year?
About the Speaker
He teaches what
he has done.
Allen Weaver is a business consultant, speaker, and trainer based in Des Moines, Iowa. With 15-plus years in sales and leadership, he has sat in the seat, carried the number, and built teams from the ground up. Every talk is drawn from that lived experience -- not a case study, not a framework from a book.
As founder of Nesh Consulting, Allen works daily with business owners and their teams on the same topics he takes to the stage: communication, execution, confidence, and the honest internal work that drives performance. When he speaks to your team, they hear it from someone who is still in the room doing the work.
