Jack Barsky
Jack Barsky is not your average leadership expert. A former deep-cover KGB spy who infiltrated the U.S. during the Cold War, Jack spent a decade living a double life—mastering the psychology of influence, navigating high-stakes deception, and learning how to lead under relentless pressure.
After breaking away from the KGB and starting over, Jack used the same skills that once made him a world-class spy to thrive in corporate America. He’s led transformations for Fortune 500 giants—reviving failing departments, driving $200M mergers, and slashing millions in operational costs.
Today, Jack is a sought-after speaker who’s delivered his raw, battle-tested insights at the FBI, Microsoft and beyond. His talks go far beyond motivation—they’re a masterclass in reading people, leading through chaos, and building influence that lasts.
From espionage to enterprise, Jack Barsky proves that the most powerful leadership lessons come from the most unlikely places.
