Jeff Adams
Two-time Olympian, Four-time Paralympian
Jeff Adams is a two-time Olympian, four-time Paralympian, six-time World Champion and prior World Record holder in the 1500m men's wheelchair event.
For the past eight years, Jeff has spoken to many corporations, and hundreds of thousands of students on diverse topics, but always with the goal of motivating positive , and stimulating productivity by teaching basic lessons about overcoming barriers.
The stories I tell and the images that I show all have the same purpose - to connect with my audience about the things that matter most to them. I speak about the need to recognize the excellence that surrounds us, and the need to be a part of that excellence if we hope to define ourselves in the ways that we dream of.

Jeff Celebrating:
Celebrating is important. The fireworks that inspire us in sports need to happen in life too, at work and at play. How to make sure that celebrating breeds success in your business team or community.
Getting Back Up:
There are times in our lives when we need to understand how to come back from a disappointment.
