About Joe Calloway, CSP, CPAE
Joe Calloway was a keynote speaker from 1982 until January of 2019. He is now a a partner in two real estate development groups and also in Barrel Stock Trading Company, a wholesale Kentucky bourbon company.
As a keynote speaker, Joe moved through a number of areas of topic focus, including customer experience, branding, and leadership development. Joe still acts as an advisor with a small number of business owners and senior level executives as clients.
Speakers love to talk about their passion for speaking. Joe always took his responsibility as a speaker very seriously, but it was never his passion. His passion was and remains, primarily, his family, and beyond that his friends.
Joe says that probably the greatest single benefit that he realized from speaking was that his closest, best friends are guys and gals who were his speaking colleagues, all of whom he originally met at NSA.
