Having worked on 87 homicide cases and two serial killer investigations, his insights are unmatched.

Elevate your event with a keynote speaker who not only educates but empowers, providing you with the tools to read body language and detect deception like never before.

Can you read what your customers and clients are really thinking?

Or maybe you want to use the power of persuasion and influence to get your message across clearly and effectively. 

Steve is now hosting a new and innovative crime show about to be launched on the Seven Network throughout Australia called “The Hunters.” The Hunters will see investigative crime journalist Adam Shand and “The Human Lie Detector” Steve join forces to reinvestigate famous crimes.

Using skills honed across decades of experience, they uncover new leads and evidence, leaving police no choice but to re-open cases. Each episode examines a different high-profile case. Adam and Steve revisit crime scenes for a hands-on recounting of each crime, and with exclusive access to original detectives, eyewitnesses, survivors and crime experts, they paint a visceral picture of murders, kidnappings, horrific attacks and underworld assassinations.

Whether you want a fun conference energiser, plenary or closing speaker Steve will get your audience pumped, laughing and wanting more. Start or end your conference with a bang whilst leaving an impressionable and lasting memory.

Steve has spoken at over 600+ conferences and seminars throughout the world attended by thousands of delegates. He delivers training programs and one on one training to CEO’s, government departments, executives, fund managers, analysts, recruiters, sales teams, managers, investigators, the finance sector, media and many others.

Reading your customers and identifying what they are feeling or thinking requires a unique skill set. When human beings try to suppress an emotion it will often leak out and contradict the spoken word. Effective interviewers, recruiters & sales staff all need to identify the 7 behavioural indicators that are displayed by all human beings.

To do so consistently requires a novel approach. And the approach Steve developed — known as the “60 second profiling technique” — has remarkable applications in business and life.

“The consistent message from the 600 delegates who attended was their desire to hear more from Steve”

To make your event a success the keynote speaker you select has to be the right fit for your organisation or conference theme.

These key ingredients are crucial to the success of any conference.

Having presented hundreds of keynote presentations at seminars, conferences and events world-wide with audiences ranging from 80 to 4,000 attendees Steve is committed to making your conference a memorable and talked about event.

“Steve is an extremely interesting individual…He is an expert in the non-verbal cues to look for when people may be saying one thing but thinking something else. He specializes in reading and analysing distress signals and facial expressions.

Steve your presentation to the CEO Clubs of New York City was amazingly informative and entertaining. It is not often that we have a speaker that can keep command of the room the way you did today at the Harvard Club. The buzz in the room was that you were one of the best speakers we have ever had.
