Jason Hewlett – The Keynote Speaker Who Makes a Promise and Keeps It
There’s no shortage of keynote speakers who can give a decent talk. But what if your next speaker didn’t just “deliver a keynote”—what if they delivered a moment your audience would never forget?
Enter Jason Hewlett.
Jason isn’t just a keynote speaker. He’s a seasoned performer, award-winning entertainer, comedian, and leadership expert who’s built a career around one powerful idea: The Promise.
He’s helped thousands of organizations across the globe reconnect with what really matters—accountability, purpose, integrity, and bringing your best to every room you walk into. He’s also made his audiences laugh so hard their stomachs hurt, cry from unexpected emotion, and walk away transformed.
And yet, Jason would tell you he doesn’t do any of this for applause.
He does it to keep a promise—first to himself, and then to the people he serves.
The Promise: More Than a Keynote
Jason’s signature message is about the power of keeping promises—not just to your boss or your customers, but to yourself.
“Those who keep their promises are the legends among us,” he says. And that belief runs through every keynote, every story, and every moment of connection he creates on stage.
He calls this The Promise—and it’s the foundation for real leadership, true accountability, and lasting cultural change.
How the ICM Process Works
At the heart of Jason’s message is his ICM Process:
Identify your Signature Moves—the talents and traits that define your value.
Clarify your purpose and direction, both as a leader and as a team.
Magnify your gifts by using them consistently and intentionally.
This framework helps leaders shift from burnout to belief, from confusion to clarity, and from compliance to commitment. And it’s delivered with Jason’s signature style: part stand-up comedy, part soul-stirring message.
Behind the Spotlight: Who Is Jason Hewlett?
What makes Jason’s impact so powerful is that he lives what he teaches. His personal mission—to help people become the kind of leaders their kids would be proud of—drives every speech he gives.
Though companies may hire him to speak on leadership, performance, or culture, Jason quietly hopes his message reaches something deeper. “Helping men become greater fathers and husbands is my real mission,” he says. “It leads to better leaders, better communities, and men who can be counted on.”
He’s seen firsthand the impact of this work. One man, after hearing Jason speak, made the decision to tell his boss about his struggle with addiction. That simple, courageous act—sparked by a promise—led to support, treatment, and a new chapter.
Jason’s not just talking about ideas. He’s changing lives.
Stories from the Road
Jason’s path as a keynote speaker has taken him to some incredible, and at times unimaginable, places.
In 2014, he was invited to perform for U.S. troops in Afghanistan to help lift morale. Despite canceled gigs, bomb threats, and enormous risks, Jason went. “It was the most meaningful work of my life,” he reflects.
He’s also headlined massive political events, including tours with public figures like Donald Trump and Tucker Carlson during the 2024 campaign—reaching over 250,000 people across arenas nationwide. “It was about spreading joy and patriotism during a time of turmoil,” Jason says. “That felt like my civic duty.”
Whether it’s a war zone, a political arena, or a quiet corporate ballroom, Jason’s commitment is the same: serve the audience, elevate the message, and keep the promise.
Quirks, Routines, and Real Life
Jason’s success on stage is rooted in deep discipline behind the scenes. His routines are as quirky as they are effective:
He never eats before a keynote.
He cold plunges daily, even on the road.
He avoids hotel TVs, skips lobby mingling, and checks out as quickly as possible to get home to his wife and kids.
He journals daily. He writes music. He rucks with a weight vest. He takes his wife on two date nights a week. These aren’t just habits—they’re promises he’s made to himself, and to the people he loves.
“All of these routines influence my work,” Jason shares. “They help me remember the promises I’ve made—and how important it is to keep them.”
What Audiences Say
Jason’s keynote isn’t a monologue. It’s a shared experience. His mix of humor and heart creates space for real change.
One leader said: “I’ve seen a lot of motivational speakers. Jason was different. His stories were real. His heart was real. His message connected with everyone.”
Another said: “He gave us a keynote that was more than inspiring—it gave us a process to fix the things we’ve been stuck on for years.”

Extend the Experience
Jason’s message doesn’t stop at the keynote. His bestselling book, The Promise to the One, dives deeper into the mindset behind his approach, offering readers a path to personal growth rooted in daily integrity.
For organizations that want to carry the momentum forward, Jason offers a Signature Moves Workshop—a hands-on session that helps teams implement the ICM Process in practical, high-impact ways.
