About Guest

Joe Hart is the President/CEO of Dale Carnegie Training, a company whose founder pioneered the human performance movement more than 100 years ago and has continued to succeed and grow worldwide, through constant research and innovation building on its founding principles.

Dale Carnegie has more than 3,000 trainers and consultants, operating in 200 offices in 86 countries around the world, impacting organizations, teams, and individuals. The Company’s client list includes more than 400 of the Fortune Global 500, tens of thousands of small to mid-sized organizations & over eight million individuals across the globe.

Since joining Dale Carnegie in 2015 as its President/CEO, Hart has initiated many important changes which have accelerated the Company’s transformation, including a global cultural and change management initiative called “One Carnegie” which has increased internal team collaboration and customer focus, as well as strategic accounts by over 200%; a successful worldwide rebranding of the iconic Dale Carnegie name; and a dramatic digital transformation across the company’s global footprint from nearly 100% in-person delivery to more than 75% online and blended programs in less than nine months (as chronicled in a 2020 Forbes Interview).
