Passionate, thought-provoking, and engaging are common responses to Nate’s presentations. Speaking on topics such as education, leadership, diversity, music, and grief, McClendon combines research and data with personal experience and anecdotes. Often incorporating his creative and musical talents along with his ever-present sense of humor, he creates an experience that leaves participants revitalized and encouraged. His superpower is his ability to connect with people, not in the superficial way that comes from charisma, but in an authentic way that stems from his genuine compassion for people. It’s this relationship that allows his message to be received on a deeper level for participants to consider and wrestle with.

“At this point in my life, what I care about is people. We all have amazing lives to live, but because we often don’t see a bigger picture, it gets hijacked. My hope is to help reshape the way people see themselves, others, and the world around them. This approach applies to and enhances any topic I might be presenting.” - Nate McClendon
