Jean Krisle is a motivational keynote speaker, extraordinary leader, and the CEO/Founder of 10,000 Beds, Inc. a 501c3 nonprofit organization. The mission of 10,000 Beds is to connect those seeking help for addiction to those who are willing to help by providing addiction treatment scholarships.

A professional motivational keynote speaker and coach, Jean engages audiences to provide inspiration for leaders, clients, teams and organizations. She focuses on fast-lane leadership and the reality of success often following failure. Her Keynote Presentation “Failing to Win: The Paradox of Success” shares personal stories and experiences using relevant data to create a strong call to action for her audience, challenging them to push themselves a little harder and reach a little higher. 

Jean and her husband Hal have spent much of 2017 and 2018 #OnTheRoad4Recovery to elevate awareness around addiction, change perceptions of recovery, and inspire fast-lane leadership.
