About Keynote Speaker Tyler Gillum

Tyler’s college baseball coaching career spanned from 2010 to 2022, during which he recruited, developed, and built championship teams. He wasn’t just a coach who focused on baseball skills; he created environments where athletes could thrive, grow, and ultimately achieve their dreams. A pivotal moment in Tyler’s career came in 2018 when he became the head coach of the Savannah Bananas. There, he worked alongside owner Jesse Cole to develop a new innovative sport called Banana Ball, a unique brand of baseball designed to entertain and engage fans like never before. The combination of being “Fans First”, having fun and developing players has led to Championships, Hall of Fame Inductions and playing in America’s biggest stadiums.

He teaches audiences how to implement actionable plans for success, blending the lessons of sports with business strategies. Through stories and hands-on advice, he encourages people to live with a “do for one what you wish you could do for many” mindset and create “never forget moments” for those around them. Whether you’re running a business or coaching a team, Tyler’s message is clear: Bet on yourself, and always remember to serve those around you.
