MEMBERSHIP MEETING & KEYNOTE 
PRESENTATION
BREAKING THROUGH BARRIERS: Unleash Resilience, 
Determination and Growth for Unbounded Success 
Johnny Quinn: US Olympian 
and Former Pro Football Player
10:50 am – 12:50 am 
SCHAUMBURG EAST
Everyone faces barriers. Some are 
obvious. Others are hidden beneath 
the surface. In BREAKING THROUGH 
BARRIERS, Johnny Quinn helps your 
audience recognize the roadblocks 
holding them back and equips them 
with the mindset and tools to move 
forward. Drawing from his remarkable 
journey from professional football to the Olympic Games, Johnny 
shares how setbacks, injuries, and detours became the very 
things that propelled him toward success. This keynote delivers 
more than motivation. It provides a proven framework built on 
three essential qualities: resilience, determination, and a growth 
mindset. These are not buzzwords. They are the tools leaders 
need to thrive in pressure-filled environments, navigate personal 
and professional challenges, and build meaningful momentum 
in life and at work. When leaders break through barriers, they 
do more than reach 
goals. They create 
stronger teams, 
healthier cultures, 
and better results 
across every area 
of life.
