For over 30 years, Brian Reaves has been teaching teams how to reach their highest potential through the art of magic, combined with compelling storytelling and relevant facts. Audiences all over the U.S. have been captivated by his unique blend of humor and illusion, which keeps everyone engaged every moment he is on stage.

​

Magician:

Brian is an internationally recognized sleight-of-hand magic champion in both close-up and stage magic. He is the five-time "Birmingham Magician of the Year". His theatrical show, "An Evening of Deception," has been hailed as a breathtaking and unbelievable experience, regularly playing in sold-out theaters across the country. 

​

Brian began his fascination with magic at 22 when he saw his first card trick performed. That moment of amazement drove him to learn the art of illusion, and he attempts to replicate that moment in every audience member of every show. He has been seen on ABC, The CW, and FOX networks.

​

Speaker:

Brian has been a TEDx speaker and was voted an audience favorite. He has also spoken for companies and organizations all over the U.S., including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Coca-Cola, the University of Alabama, Mercedes, Pepsi, the Missouri Transportation Authority, Medjet, and many more. 

​

Unlike other motivational speakers you may have heard in the past, Brian doesn't just sit and lecture to the crowd, spewing countless facts and information while they hopelessly try to keep up (or find the will to live). Drawing from over 30 years of experience as a corporate trainer and speaker, Brian knows how to keep the audience involved by using stories and illusions to illustrate his points and make the message stick. This truly is a fully interactive experience for your group, not "just another lecture". 

 

It's proven that people remember what they see more than what they hear. Now imagine if your crowd is seeing something they don't believe is possible--and it's actually happening right in front of their faces! It's an experience they won't forget any time soon.

 

The majority of attendees at these events have never seen a live magic show, so they are automatically drawn in with excitement. Brian does not disappoint, combining award-winning magic with relevant information your team will use to pull them into an event that is sure to be the highlight of your conference or retreat.

Author:

Brian is the author of three books, including the best-selling Ignore the Impossible: Problem-Solving with a Magician's Mindset. Many companies have used his other two books, Metamorphosis: Transform Your Leadership and Possibilities, to help their teams grow personally and professionally.   

​

Brian also authors a blog of corporate success tips and a weekly newsletter of leadership articles. He also contributes to several professional publications.
