Following the initial success of Perfect Fitness, Alden Mills and his team lost their way. Laser-focused on growth and profit, the company began to falter. To get back on track and ensure ongoing success, they regrouped and established a prominent culture.  

This keynote details how stakeholders in senior leadership and human resources build an Unstoppable Culture to drive lasting employee engagement, competitive advantage, and outsized growth. Through personal stories, checklists, and live exercises, Alden shows how to close culture gaps by building intentional structure, dynamic practices, and congruent values that leaders and teams apply together — day after day, week after week. Attendees learn the behaviors and tools that create an Unstoppable Culture by embedding the three Ps–Promise, People, and Process – a practical three-part framework to close the gap between an organization’s existing culture and activating what he calls the 10x Advantage to create an Unstoppable Culture.

About Keynote Speaker Alden Mills

Alden Mills is on a mission to help 100 million people Be Unstoppable. With more than 40 years of experience failing and succeeding in a vast array of different environments from sports, military, and business to nonprofits and community action groups, he learned success is driven by one vital factor – leadership – of oneself and others. 

The first person Alden learned to lead was himself. As a weak child with asthma, doctors insisted he limit physical activity and avoid sports. Instead, with the mindset instilled in him by his mother that “no one defines what you can and can’t do, but you,” he went on to become a National Collegiate Champion rower, earning Gold and Silver medals at the Olympic Festival, and a Navy SEAL who was top of his class. From a young age he amassed notebooks of invention drawings. One of those ideas became the wildly popular Perfect Pushup and today he holds over 40 patents worldwide.

As Alden achieved personal successes, he repeatedly grew into leadership positions. He became captain of his collegiate rowing team, was promoted three times to Navy SEAL platoon commander, and ranked #1 platoon commander each time. He turned a single invention into a global fitness powerhouse in over 70 countries with multiple products, leading Perfect Fitness to become the fastest-growing consumer product company in the country, with over $95 million in sales in just three years. He has since founded and served on multiple companies’ boards in retail hard goods, consumable products, and service-based businesses. 

Along the way, Alden cultivated a methodology – Unstoppable Leadership – that develops people into congruent and authentic leaders who successfully build teams and create cultures that are unstoppable regardless of the situation, industry, or environment.

Today Alden Mills is known as one of the leading business thinkers in America and spends his time helping others learn and implement the three levels of Unstoppable Leadership. Through speaking, coaching, writing, board advisory, and teaching, Alden helps people acquire the mindset, tools, and actions required to accomplish more than they thought was possible.

Alden Mills exceeded our expectations for our Chairman’s Club Trip—as was evident in the burst of
applause and standing ovation as he finished. Alden moved seamlessly throughout the attendees, providing

“Event planners are always on the lookout for speakers who bring it all—a deep level of focus on the
audience, frameworks that connect with people, and a ‘fired up!’ attitude. Alden Mills has the whole
package and an undeniable knack for moving attendees into a place where their full leadership potential is
possible. During the pre-call, I learned why: Alden applies his own work to his life, every day, looking for
continuous improvement as a speaker and workshop facilitator. His energy is infectious, his teachings spot-
on, and his empathy for the audience endless as far as I can tell. Alden models “unstoppable” leadership. I
will book him again soon.”

“Alden Mills is completely entertaining and captivating. He had our entire audience entranced by his amazing stories, all the while we were learning something about ourselves. I came away inspired to achieve,
motivated to serve, and energized for the next great challenge.”
