Before the stage, Josh spent 25 years inside growing companies, including one he joined at zero that was later sold for $1.9 billion. He speaks to businesses the way he sells: no script, no fluff, and a genuine belief that people buy from people. He is selective about the companies he works with, on purpose.
Be Au Sm is endorsed by Howard Behar, retired president of Starbucks Coffee Company International, and Lt. Col. Andy Riise, mental performance coach for the Chicago Bears.
A school convocation starts at eight. Josh is still there at two-thirty, and not in the green room. This is what a day with him actually looks like.
"You're paying me a lot of money to speak, so I want to give you something back. Whatever alleviates stress, or shows these people I'm an actual human and not just some guy on a stage, have me do it."
Faculty and staff, custodians and bus drivers, front office and food service, all in one room. Stories, humor, and one clear idea to carry into the year: live your legacy today, not someday.
Smaller rooms, real questions. Leading a multi-generational workforce, service mindset, what to do when the year gets hard. The hallway conversations after are where the letters come from.
Two weeks before this page was written, Josh was on a short bus in 100-degree Northampton County, Virginia, running 400 box lunches with the food service team before they got too warm to serve.
The cool part is hanging out with the lunch ladies.
Twenty-five years in operations means he knows where the real work happens. He rides the buses, walks the shops, and has mowed more than one lawn on a keynote day.
The day ends when theirs does. Stacking chairs, hauling trash, and the last conversations with the people most keynote speakers never meet.
Josh looks up everyone he takes a picture with. Some of the people he met on stage years ago are still among his biggest supporters, and his friends.
He has held every one of them. Tell him where the energy in your agenda usually dips and he will build for it.
Josh has no agency and no ad budget. Every booking comes from someone who was in a room with him and told someone else. That is the only marketing he has ever needed.
