Frank Kitchen is a high-impact keynote speaker and Professional Results Expert who helps professionals and organizations break through stuck thinking to create meaningful results at work. Known for his engaging, practical, and high-energy style, Frank delivers keynotes that move audiences beyond motivation and into real execution.
Frank’s journey into professional speaking was shaped by reinvention. After losing his job on Father’s Day in 2015, he was forced to rethink how capable professionals respond when familiar strategies stop working. That experience became the foundation for his proprietary LIVE F.R.E.S.H.™ Framework—Focused, Resourceful, Enthusiastic, Strong, Honest—a practical mindset reset designed to help people move from intention to action.
With more than 30 years of experience in leadership development, performance, and adult learning, Frank blends real-world insight with research-backed strategies that resonate across industries. His work has impacted associations, corporations, nonprofits, government agencies, and educational organizations around the world.
Frank holds the Certified Speaking Professional (CSP) designation from the National Speakers Association—an elite credential earned by fewer than 1,000 professional speakers worldwide. Frank is also the author of Fresh from the Kitchen, 52 Ways to Shine and The Live FRESH Workbook, books that extend his LIVE F.R.E.S.H.™ Framework into everyday professional application. His distinctive food-based metaphors create a shared language that makes learning stick long after the event ends.
Audiences consistently describe Frank’s keynotes as engaging, relatable, and immediately applicable—leaving with clarity, confidence, and renewed momentum to start “cooking up” results they can see, measure, and sustain.

How Professionals Break Through Stale Thinking to Create Meaningful Results at Work
At every stage of a professional career, one challenge shows up again and again: Feeling stuck. Not because people lack talent, experience, or effort—but because familiar thinking, habits, and assumptions quietly limit focus, confidence, and execution.
In this high-energy, highly interactive keynote, Frank Kitchen helps professionals identify the thinking patterns that keep them stuck—and replace them with a clear, practical, and repeatable way forward.
Using his proven LIVE F.R.E.S.H.™ Framework, Frank teaches participants how to sharpen focus, become more resourceful, take stronger ownership, and engage with their work in a way that produces real results—whether they’re leading a team, contributing as an individual, or growing a business.
This is not a motivational pep talk. It’s a professional reset—designed to move people from intention to action, without hype or fluff. Participants leave with clarity, confidence, and renewed momentum to start “cooking” up results they can see, measure, and sustain.

This workshop is interactive without being chaotic, practical without being tactical training, and personal without becoming therapy. It’s designed for professionals who want more than inspiration—they want traction.
