Wintley Phipps is exclusively represented by Gold Stars Speakers Bureau. Wintley Phipps is one of the most watched inspirational speaker in the world! Just as Susan Boyle's video created a firestorm and gone viral, Whitley's "Amazing Grace" has done the same with over 7 million views. He is internationally known as a man with awesome musical talent and a powerful message.
Wintley is a speaker and singer who specializes in messages of hope, faith, and possibility thinking. In 2010, he was given the Master of Influence Award by the National Speakers Association. Less than 15 speakers have been bestowed that honor. He has performed for every U.S. President since President Jimmy Carter.
Wintley Phipps is unique and memorable. He considers himself a "full-service communicator" who motivates and transforms lives through his magnificent voice and through his moving message. He has both spoken -- and sung -- worldwide, for a wide range of audiences, including heads of state; the poor; and the imprisoned, sharing messages of faith and hope. His philosophy for speaking can be summed up in his statement, “At the end of the day, you measure a speaker’s success by the lives that are transformed, and the lives that go on to make a difference in the world or change the world.”
He delivered the inspirational address for the opening of the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls in South Africa, addressed the Semler Leadership Lecture Series for corporate executives; Keller Williams Realty International Conference and frequently speaks for Amway Corp. For more than 25 years, he has traveled the world delivering messages of hope, advocacy, and equality to many thousands of people. He incorporates singing into his speaking appearances. He starts most of his performances with one of several hundreds of songs in his repertoire, tailoring his choice to the audience and message to which he is delivering.
Wintley Phipps touches all who hear him, and moves them to standing ovations -- and more importantly -- to transform themselves and the world around them. If you want a speaker who will just deliver a speech, Wintley Phipps probably is not the speaker for you. But if you want a powerful message that is delivered with the polish of a craftsman who paints an indelible vision in the minds and hearts of your attendees, then Wintley Phipps is an extraordinary choice.
Phipps is, by his own admission, a man who often bites off more than he can chew. He said he has always had to spread his best around just to survive. He manages to maintain order in his life in part because of Linda's (his wife) steadying hand, and by always striving to do his "balanced best" in a frenetic life. Due to his demanding TV and concert travel schedule, his speaking dates are limited.
NOTE: Wintley Phipps usually sings a selected song as part of his presentation.
