Meet Jon

Jon is a speaker, podcast host, Holocaust educator, pastor, and lover of stories. From college classrooms to executive business suites, he has engaged audiences of all sizes and formats in locations across the country and around the world for nearly 20 years. He has worked with clients like Amazon, HP, Dell, MorningStar, MatrixCare, and Dental Crafters Network, to name a few. No matter who they are, Jon brings the same energy and passion to help inspire, challenge, and move people.

He truly believes that the world can be a better place and that the written word and powerful stories can help bring it there.

Born and raised in Madison, Wisconsin, at the age of 18, he boarded a plane bound for Australia and hasn’t looked back when it comes to travel and adventure. Jon has studied at Oral Roberts University, Fuller Theological Seminary, and Gratz College. He graduated magna cum laude with his B.S. in Church Ministry/Christian Theology degree, and in 2018 he received his M.A. Holocaust & Genocide Studies degree. Since completing his Master’s degree, Jon has gone on to found his very own Holocaust Education Project (6M), through which he teaches classes, workshops, and seminars on the history of the Holocaust and its implications for today. Through his teaching workshops, Jon has also been recognized for being the first person to bring intentional Holocaust Education into the American Evangelical Christian Church.

He currently resides in La Crosse, Wisconsin, where he is a main teacher and speaker for a multi-thousand-attendee church and the host of his own podcast. When he’s not engaged in public speaking, Jon fills his time being a husband to his wife Emily and a “girl dad” to his three daughters.

What Jon’s Clients Are Saying

  • "Working with Jon has been the thing I needed to move forward in my speaking career. Not only does he help with the mechanics of public speaking, he helps clarify the purpose behind WHY we are sharing what we share, and in that helps you find your own unique story to tell. The private sessions have been amazing, and the Elite Speaker Summit was the best investment I’ve ever made in my own personal voice and brand. You’ll never regret taking the step to work Jon!"

    Jess (Keynote Speaker)

  • “I had the privilege of learning from Jon at the Elite Speaker Summit. His teaching pulled me in the moment he started speaking, both in a practical and experiential way. The lessons to walk away with at the end of each story or example were not only memorable and extremely useful, but also things that I could almost immediately implement in my business. All of that simply put, I have been in a client facing/speaking engaging role for over 15 years and have never once received such thorough and interactive teaching. 10/10 recommend!"

    Tracy (Nonprofit Director)

  • "Public speaking is not necessarily a strong suit for most physicians. When I was invited to speak at a regional institution's grand rounds on the topic of physician well-being I felt it was time to bring some added flare to my presentation style. I connected with Jon Reiner, public-speaking coach, to assist me in expanding my speaker tool-box. Working with Jon was both enjoyable and educational. He is easy to engage with and makes one feel at ease experimenting with speaking techniques and developing presentation content. My biggest learnings were around capturing and maintaining the attention of audience, narrowing my focus to deliver content with the most impact and gaining confidence and boldness in delivering my message. Overall, Jon's coaching was very impactful and has lead to sustained change in how I present myself in public and engage with an audience. Coaching with Jon was time well spent for my own personal speaker development."

    Sue (Pediatric Cardiologist & Physician Development Coach)

  • “I didn’t know what to expect when I started working with Jon. I knew I needed help with my presenting skills for an upcoming training and that was about it. After the first coaching session with Jon, I walked away with a better understanding of how to structure my training, how to interact and engage the audience, and was equipped with skills to maximize future trainings. Jon ensured I was set up for success before I left for my training and presentation. This was the most prepared I have ever been for a training, and I attribute it all to my coaching sessions with Jon.”

    Drew (Media Production Business Owner)

  • "Jon’s keynote “I See You” was an absolute highlight of Leadercast La Crosse 2024. Jon delivered a highly engaging presentation that kept the attention of the audience of more than 400 leaders from start to finish. Jon was able to tie in content from an entire day of simulcast speakers to deliver an on-site presentation that was energetic, valuable and relevant, leaving the attendees inspired to go out and be leaders worth following. Jon’s deliverables on leadership, opportunity and culture sparked meaningful reflection for the attendees so that we could all leave with tangible ways to be better leaders for our teams, organizations, families and communities. Jon is a phenomenal speaker with a wealth of knowledge, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an inspiring and thought-provoking presentation.”

    Dahl Automotive’s “Leadercast”

  • "Jon Reiner's two-day training on storytelling speeches transformed my presentation skills, providing practical exercises and personalized feedback that made a lasting impact."

    Rod (IT/Tech Business Owner; AI Keynote Speaker)

  • "Jon's approach to coaching and teaching is refreshing. He is patient in guiding you through understanding the art of speaking while allowing you to find your own footing and nurture your own style. He is tactical in his approach - teaching you how to think about your audience and the thoughts you are trying to convey, leading to increased confidence in your ability to communicate your message effectively in any situation. He is thorough in the way he delivers information - from the most basic speaking technique to more complex formulas for conveying your story - he leaves no stone unturned and you can be sure you will walk away feeling well equipped. Lastly, working with Jon is a fun and enjoyable experience. He is easy going, light hearted, encouraging and makes you feel comfortable as you learn a skill that can at times be nerve-wracking to learn. I would recommend Jon to anyone looking to improve their ability to speak, communicate with others in any capacity and to those who want to learn how to better share their story."
