When Omar L. Harris, Executive Success Coach, and Stephen Boyd, motivational educator and speaker, sat down on The Expert Insight Show, they delivered a riveting conversation on what defines next‑generation leadership: innovation rooted in empathy, intentional frameworks, and how to develop emerging leaders for systemic transformation.
Executive Success Coach Omar L. Harris: Servant‑Leadership with Impact
Omar L. Harris is more than a coach—he is an Executive Success Coach, Gallup-certified, bestselling and award-winning author whose leadership work spans four continents in global corporations like Pfizer and Schering‑Plough. He helps mid- and senior-level professionals maximize performance, align values and strategy, and create high‑performance teams using his signature Team Performance Acceleration Principles (TPAPs) and servant leadership models.
Harris’s coaching approach is grounded in empathy and intentional leadership through models such as:
- L.U.V. Leadership (Listening, Understanding, Validating): Cultivating trust and innovation by centering human connection.
- The J.E.D.I. Leadership framework (Justice, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion): Ensuring leadership decisions foster fairness and open environments.
These frameworks deliver measurable results—while the industry suffered setbacks, his team achieved significant growth following his guidance. As an Executive Success Coach, Omar positions clients for clarity, emotional intelligence, strategic thinking, and elevated results by coaching intentional leadership from the inside out.
Stephen Boyd: Motivational Educator and Leadership Catalyst
Stephen Boyd, M.Ed., brings over 25 years of education and motivational speaking expertise. A former classroom teacher and school administrator, he founded SB Entertainment LLC to help educators and organizations transform engagement, communication, and leadership through his signature programs like “Put Your G.A.M.E. Face On” and “Lead like you’re on F.I.R.E.” These keynote messages and workshops have earned him invitations to the National Press Club and major education conferences including ASCD and NAESP.
Known as The Student Engagement Agent, Boyd leverages storytelling and emotionally intelligent frameworks to inspire motivation and elevate performance. His emphasis on authentic communication—“Good communication is the bridge between confusion and clarity”—is central to his coaching and speaking philosophy
