Most keynote speakers leave when the applause does.

Rick Jordan leaves something behind. The kind of thing people are still talking about in the hallway twenty minutes later. Sometimes three weeks later in a board meeting.

CEO. Keynote Speaker. Cybersecurity authority. Host of FREQUENCY.

Twenty years of decisions with real money on the line.

That’s what your stage gets.

Follow On:

“I show up because I know what’s on the line when leaders go silent.”

He shows up with a perspective. Holds it under pressure. Makes the segment worth watching.

That’s why they call him back.

Is This The Right Speaker For Your Event?

Most events book a speaker because the program needs one. Rick gets booked because the outcome demands one. Most events measure success by the energy in the room. The standing ovation. And survey scores that look good in a recap email.

And then Monday comes. People go back to their desks and start their day like nothing happened. And whatever shifted during the keynote... slowly gets forgotten.

That's not a knock on events. It's just what happens when a speaker optimizes for the room... and you leave feeling something without knowing what to do with it.

Rick builds for what happens next. Which is why people who've seen him speak once tend to book him again.

He's been on over 1,000 stages. Spoken at corporate summits, Entrepreneur conferences, C-suite retreats, events where the people in the seats have heard every framework, seen every slide deck, and can spot performance from the third row.

With Rick, he doesn't perform. He pauses. Long pauses. The kind that make event coordinators nervous from the back of the room. And he doesn't fill the space. He waits. And when your room catches up... something in it has already changed.

Phones go down. People stop checking the time. Senior executives respond to him in a way they don't respond to other speakers.

You already know why.

He runs a publicly traded company, answers to investors every quarter, makes decisions under real financial pressure with his name on the stock ticker. He knows what it feels like to sit where you're sitting. And that changes everything about how he speaks.

When he talks about leadership on your stage he's not pulling from a book. He's pulling from last week.

After a thousand keynotes and twelve hundred live television interviews you stop trying to be impressive. Instead, you just say what is true.

Turns out that's the most impressive thing you can do.

The best way to move forward is to quit talking and start doing.

Leadership without presence is just performance.

Cybersecurity is trust, not tech.

If it’s not a clean invitation, it’s not aligned.

A great founder doesn’t just build. They transmit.

We rise when we stop chasing the game and start building what we were meant to carry.

- Rick Jordan

Wherever the right conversation needs to happen

He’s Been on Over a Thousand Stages. Here’s What Actually Happens on Them

Rick has stood on over a thousand stages. Corporate summits. Entrepreneur conferences. C-suite retreats where the people in those seats stopped being impressed a long time ago.

Because of that... Rick doesn't try to impress them.

He names what the organization has been walking around for six months. Says it directly. And because he says it out loud... the room shifts. Not dramatically. Quietly. The way a room shifts when someone finally levels with it.

Not inspiration. Not a story designed to end on applause. Direction. Real next steps from someone actually running something right now. And because those steps are real... people write them down. Conversations happen in the hallway that wouldn't have happened otherwise.

Planners call back. Because when that happens... they know it worked.

Twelve Hundred Live Interviews. Producers Keep Calling Back. Here’s Why

Producers have one real question when they book a guest.

Will this person say something worth air time?

Most guests can't answer that until they're already in the chair. Rick answered it twelve hundred times. Bloomberg. FOX. NBC. CBS. Cheddar. NewsMax. He doesn't hedge when the anchor pushes. Doesn't reach for the safe answer when a direct one is available. Doesn't need a green room pep talk to walk out sharp.

He hosts Frequency. Over 500 episodes heard in 80 countries. The audience isn't passive. They share episodes with their teams. Their partners. People they've been trying to convince of something for months.

That's what media presence actually looks like when it's.

He Doesn’t Just Talk About Cybersecurity. He Runs a Cybersecurity Company

Every industry has a cybersecurity problem right now.

Healthcare. Finance. Manufacturing. Real estate. Government. It doesn’t matter what your audience does for a living. Someone in that room has already been breached or is about to be. They just don’t know it yet.

Rick is the voice that makes that real without making it paralyzing.

CEO of a publicly traded cybersecurity firm. OTC: FRQN. He advises at the White House. Answers to investors every quarter about decisions that have real financial consequences. He isn’t translating cybersecurity for business leaders. He is a business leader. One who happens to run a cybersecurity company.

That’s the combination that makes a segment land.

No jargon. No doom. No slide deck full of statistics that make people feel helpless.

Just what’s actually happening. What smart organizations do about it. And what it costs to keep waiting.

Producers book Rick when the story needs someone who can make a technical topic feel urgent and actionable to a general audience. That’s a short list. He’s on it.

For Founders Who Know Something Needs to Change and Haven’t Said It Out Loud Yet

You already know something needs to change.

Maybe the company is scaling faster than the leadership around you. Maybe the decisions are getting harder and the people you're leaning on are giving you the same answers they gave you two years ago. Maybe you've just been moving so fast that you haven't stopped to figure out if you're still building what you meant to build.

Rick advises founders and executives who are in that gap.

He's been inside a publicly traded company under real investor pressure. Made the calls. Lived with them. Which means when he sits across from you he isn't working from theory. He's working from what actually happened when someone in your position made a similar decision.

Direct. Specific. No unnecessary warmup.

And when you leave that conversation... you know what to do next.

FREQUENCY with Rick Jordan

There are a lot of leadership podcasts.

Most of them talk about what success looks like from the outside. Rick talks about what it feels like inside a company under real pressure. The decisions. The doubt. The screw ups. The parts that don’t make the highlight reel.

Over 500 episodes, heard in over 80 countries. Millions of listeners who keep coming back because he doesn’t sanitize any of it.

Why Event Planners Book Rick Jordan

You've booked speakers before. You know the questions that keep you up the week before the event.

Here's what planners who've worked with Rick actually say after.

Will My Executive Audience Actually Respect This Person?

Twelve hundred live interviews. Bloomberg. FOX. NBC. CBS.

Senior executives have seen every kind of speaker. The ones who perform. The ones who inspire. The ones who are gone by lunch and forgotten by Friday.

Rick runs a publicly traded company. Answers to investors every quarter. Makes decisions under real financial pressure. When he walks into a room full of executives… they recognize someone who has been where they are.

That changes how they listen.

What If the Room Is Tough?

Some of the best rooms Rick has ever spoken to were the hardest ones.

C-suite retreats where the people in those seats had already decided before he walked out that they weren’t going to be impressed. Conferences where the energy was flat before he got on stage. Events where the previous speaker ran long and ate into his time.

After a thousand stages you stop needing the room to be ready for you. You make the room ready.

Does He Actually Know Cybersecurity or Just Talk About It?

There are a lot of people who talk about cybersecurity.

Very few of them get called to advise the White House on it.

Rick does. Because when you run a publicly traded cybersecurity firm, answer to investors every quarter, and build something that actually works in the field… that’s the credibility that gets you in that room.

OTC: FRQN. Real clients. Real threats landing in his inbox right now. Not a consulting practice built around a speaking career. An actual operating company with skin in the game every single day.

When he talks about risk on your stage he isn’t working from last year’s report. He’s working from last week. That’s a different thing entirely.

And technical audiences know the difference the moment he opens his mouth.

Will People Remember What He Said?

This is the question most planners don’t ask out loud but think about afterward.

The standing ovation fades. The energy in the room fades. What stays is whether people can tell you three days later what the speaker actually said.

Rick’s audiences can. Not just the general topic. Specific lines. Specific moments. The moment he named what nobody else had said yet. That’s what gets talked about in the hallway. And in the board meeting three weeks later.

Is He Going to Be Difficult to Work With?

Fast to respond. Clear about what he needs. His team handles coordination without making yours do extra work.

No surprises day-of. No last-minute requests that throw off your schedule. No green room demands that create problems before he even gets on stage.

After a thousand events you stop needing to be managed. You just show up. Prepared. On time. Ready to go.

How Do I Know He's Worth It?

Planners who book Rick once tend to book him again.

That’s not something you can manufacture. It happens because the event delivered. Because the audience responded in a way that showed up in the feedback. Because the conversations that happened after were different from the ones that happen after most keynotes.

The track record is public. The clients are real. The stages are documented.

If you want to talk through whether this is the right fit for your event… that conversation starts here.

The events that get the most out of Rick have one thing in common.

The people in those seats were done with surface-level answers. Done with speakers who fire the room up and disappear. They wanted something that would still be sitting with them the following week.

See what that looks like.

If that’s your audience. This is your speaker.
