Inspiring teams to lead and perform on a championship level.

Brad Gushue spent over twenty years competing on some of the biggest stages in curling. From local ice in St. John’s to Olympic gold and world titles, he learned firsthand how winning teams actually build trust, handle pressure, and push each other to perform when everything is on the line. Today, he shares those experiences as valuable lessons in leadership, vulnerability, accountability, and team culture.

— ABOUT BRAD GUSHUE

Blank grid paper background with light blue lines and a faint blue grid pattern.

From Newfoundland to the world stage.

Brad Gushue grew up in St. John's, Newfoundland and spent his career proving that world-class teams are built, not found. As skip of his local rink, he led one of the most successful curling teams in Canadian history, marked not by the absence of adversity, but by how they responded to it.

Through Olympic pressure, world championships, setbacks, rebuilds, and the eventual transition out of elite sport, Brad has accumulated a body of experience in leadership and teamwork that very few people in any field can match.

— BRAD’S KEYNOTE THEMES

One speaker.
Five lenses.

Brad adapts his keynote to your event and audience. Not five different talks, but one powerful story, focused through the lens that best fits your theme and messgae.

  • How honesty about doubt and failure builds the trust that high-performing teams require.

  • Operating under extreme pressure as a unit. Roles, communication, and mutual support when stakes are highest.

  • Making the call when it counts. Staying composed, decisive, and present in the moments that define a team.

  • Owning outcomes without blame. Setting standards that elevate everyone and following through when it's hard.

  • Navigating identity shifts, reinvention, and the next chapter — from elite sport to real life and beyond.

GUSHUE:

Written with bestselling author Stephen Brunt and published by Penguin Random House, Brad’s upcoming book goes past the medals and TV moments and into the parts most people never see: his early years in St. John’s, the pressure of chasing Olympic gold, the seasons where nothing seemed to click, and the work it took to keep the same core group performing at the top for two decades.

THE MAKING OF CHAMPION.
