Since 1980, Ty has led the Excellence in Speaking Institute©. ESI teaches speaking and presentation skills to executives worldwide, with attendees from over 50 countries, representing many Fortune 500 companies. Ty’s organization also provides one-on-one coaching for top performers in business, the professions, and arts.

Ty and Pat Boyd’s book, The Million Dollar Toolbox: A Blueprint for Transforming Your Life and Your Career with Powerful Communication Skills, is a popular resource for individuals and organizations. He has co-authored several other books.

His career began at age 15, when he became a “free” announcer at his hometown radio station in Statesville, North Carolina. That “free” work led him to a career that spanned 3 decades, to locations around the globe. Simultaneous careers allowed Boyd to also develop as an internationally known public speaker with audiences on 5 continents. His 3rd career began in 1980 when two of his best speaking clients, Aetna Insurance and Apple Computers asked if he might help their key people to speak more effectively. “I learned to teach by trial and error. Had to learn pretty quickly; they expected me to make a big difference in their people!!” “I did learn and continue to do so today, 31 years later. Seeing our students actually growing dramatically in confidence and ability right before your eyes is one of the great experiences of my life. We don’t work miracles, but our students frequently do!”

So, one guy who pursued his great passion for communications had three careers at once. Broadcasting, public speaking, and teaching. Ty Boyd Executive Learning Systems () is a trusted resource for many of FIRMA’s member institutions.

Ty is a high achiever. He has been inducted into both the Speakers Hall of Fame and N.C. Broadcasters Hall of Fame.

Ty Boyd is a graduate of the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. He and his wife and business partner, Pat, have six children and ten grandchildren.
