Orrin Woodward is a leader, a mentor, and a trusted friend
Orrin Woodward is someone I’ve been following since 2006… and to this day, he is one of the greatest mentors of my business career and LIFE…
Granted, my opinion of him is a little biased…
But why would I consider him, of all the leaders in the field of networking and marketing, one of my personal greatest mentors of all time?
How about the fact that I’ve created 100’s of $1,000’s of EXTRA volume in my business after listening to his training audio (and yes, APPLYING what he taught)?
How about exhibiting absolutely consistent behavior on AND off the stage and always lead by example?
Sounds simple I know… but trust me, it’s very difficult to do for most people 😉
Anyhow, I’m telling you because I am SO excited that I can bring you this exclusive interview for your benefit. (click below to watch the interview for FREE)
Orrin Woodward is a best-selling author,
a trusted leader to many, a last but not least… a multi-millionaire;Â yet he’s also been someone who’s a bit controversial and lives on the edge to certain communities.
Regardless what your opinion is of Orrin, or perhaps you’ve never heard his name…
This interview is packed with great wisdom and tips that you can carry with you wherever you go to improve your relationships, your business results, and in many occasions, yourself!
Of the many awards and accolades Orrin Woodward has earned…
these two stand out the most to me –
#25 leadership guru in the world

In this day and age, when you are considered a leader by Alltop, New York Times and TopLeadeshipGuru.com… there’s a VERY good chance that you are the real deal…
Enjoy this interview with Orrin Woodward and let me know what you think!
Dream ENORMOUS my friend…
Very sincerely,
This is the great lessons that I like in this video.
Make other mistakes and don`t hung up on the same mistakes. Every great entrepreneur made a lot of mistakes and that made them great.
I like the 4 step process. 1.information 2.Progress 3.Profit and PURPOSE. We BUILD IT BECAUSE THAT IS OUR PURPOSE. I believe every entrepreneur should have this but before we can have it we must also get the other 3 steps.
Focus on leadership because you cannot go beyond your capacity.
Hunger is the beginning of CHANGE. We must also apply what we have learned.
Love being out of your comfort zone.
The moment you take action the Goliath becomes smaller.
If you have a thousand you are contributing to thousands. This is a great leadership advice. I DON`T WANT TO BE A LEADER TO A BUNCH OF FOLLOWERS, BUT I WANT TO BE A SERVANT TO A LOT OF LEADERS.
The last lesson is..
If you are an ENGINEER, you are destined to become a good entrepreneur. So quit the corporate
world and be an entrepreneur. hahaha 🙂
This is a nice interview Jerry
– Ian Valeza
Ian I can tell you are a willing student by your comment. You paid attention to the details. And yes, we are proud to be former engineers 😉
Hey Jerry,
Purpose is everything. It’s the set of the sail. Purpose gives us drive that help us get back up after countless falls. Also if we don’t have a strong enough “why” we do the things that we choose to do, chances are that we will give up on our dreams when obstacles show up.
Great interview and the share is highly appreciated!

Your Friend In Marketing Ken Somerville
PS. Thanks for having comment Luv. It is a great feature and I have it on my blog as well.
Inspiring and awesome interview..
thanks for shareing Orrin…
There’s a little nugget for all of us in your intro:
Listen to the teachings…THEN APPLY THEM
Wow interesting video, and I am so happy for you that your business has done so well due to practicing what Orrin Woodward has taught you. I am looking forward to putting this into practice to see what it will do for MY business 🙂 Thank you for posting this you did a great job on the interview.
You are right I have never heard of this gentleman before but if what this article says is correct then I look forward to taking his advice. I am thrilled for you if your business has become more successful due to listening to this gentleman’s advice and lectures. Thank you for bringing this advice to the table I will look into this again and see if I can benefit from his advice as well!
I am looking forward to putting this into practice to see what it will do for my business. Thank you for posting this you did a great job and I look forward to seeing more posts from you. Congratulations on the success of your business as well, you said that Orrin’s advice is what finally helped you succeed is that true?
If what this article says is correct then I look forward to taking this advice. If the advice he gave you helped make your business a success then I am thrilled for you. Thank you for bringing this advice to the table does Orrin have anymore article out there that I can read or maybe a book? I will continue to research him and see what I can dig up.
Are all those people in the banner ad at the top of this blog people that have followed Orrin’s advice and been successful? I would like to read more success stories from actual people that have done what he suggested and been successful. Do you have any of these or are the success stories made up by professional writers for the most part. Prove this works to me and I will try it.
It seems that Orrin really has his act together and really knows what he is talking about. You have done an excellent job on your blog post about him and the interview your shared was great. I hope to take his advice and put it into practice in my life and hopefully become a success like he has. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I really enjoyed the interview and you were right I learned more from this short interview about myself then I have in all the years of counseling. I am taking away so much from this interview that I can use in my ever day life towards relationships and business that I can not thank you enough. I will be looking for more speeches or seminars or interviews done by Orrin in the near future.
I have always thought of networking as a pyramid scheme and never thought that it could go anywhere. I have seen a lot of networking people that have supposedly been successful at this but this Orrin seems to be the only one that has sat down and told his story and sounded genuine. Thank you for posting this maybe if I could take the frame of mind that he did I could do this.
I have listened to the interview and I am going to go out and try to find his book so that I can “school my soul as he put it! Thanks for the interview.
This all sounds great but I just don’t think that going out and trying to sell this to others so that they would be under my team and I can make money off of them when they sign someone up as well is what I’d do myself. You are going out and signing these people up to be on your team but what are your selling, bottom line what does anyone ever walk away with?
Hey Sharon – Glad you enjoyed the interview. I invite you to check out the other interviews on this page http://www.buildamagneticnetwork.com/trainers as all these interviewees are successful leaders in the networking industry. Networking comp plans are shaped like a pyramid just like most organizational structures. But a pyramid scheme? Absolutely not 🙂
Hey Melody – Commerce is all about trading values… One party is buying and the other selling. In networking business owners have retail customers as well as teammates (downlines, if you will)… everyone decides for themselves how they want to be involved as it’s essentially just free enterprise. What anyone walks away with depends on the company’s products and compensation plan.
Orrin Woodward has obviously done well in his life after deciding to do this for a living, although the engineering would have been a well paying job as well. Some people are good at selling things but I am not that person because what are you actually selling them? Networking is not something for me, I do appreciate you sharing this success story with us though.
You have done an excellent job on your blog post about Orrin and the interview your shared was great. It seems that Orrin really has his act together and really knows what he is talking about. I hope to take his advice and philosophies and put it into practice in my life and hopefully become a success like he has. Thank you for sharing this with us.
How many people do you have to have on your team to be a success? This was a very interesting post and I’d like to learn as Orrin did to become a successful business person. I’ve seen that there is going to be a meeting here in a couple of weeks and I’m thinking about going, is there actually something to sell to people or are you just selling a place on the team?
I am taking away so much from this interview that I can use in my ever day life towards relationships and business that I can not thank you enough. I really enjoyed the interview and you were right I learned more from this short interview about myself then I have in a long time. I will be looking for more speeches or any meetings he may bring to this area.
What was the name of the book he wrote again? I have listened to the interview and I want to go out and try to find his book so that I can “school my soul as he put it but I forget the name.
Thank you for posting this interview I would never have believed it if I hadn’t heard it straight from his own mouth. Taking this interview and posting it online the way you did makes a big difference in the way I used to think about networking. You did an excellent job and I hope that you will continue to post new stuff in the future.
You know… I am absolutely TICKED that although there seems to be 1,000 times more people that have benefited and are benefiting from Orrin Woodward, Chris Brady, LIFE and TEAM’s teaching than those that didn’t, yet there are more people willing to flock to these negative sites about Orrin and LIFE and leaving 100’s of comments on something they don’t necessarily know a whole lot about.
And there are… 24 comments on this interview?
Orrin Woodward is not a perfect man… not even close, nor is he a demi-God like some people sarcastically suggest. He’s just a human being that has read a lot of books, listened to a lot audios, accomplished amazing success in business by striving for excellence through helping others and leading by example. And that leadership is contagious enough to spread through an entire organization of many 10’s of 1,000’s of people in the network marketing industry.
If YOU or someone you know have been positively impacted by LIFE, TEAM, Orrin Woodward, Chris Brady and their organizations, books or audios… PLEASE share your experiences here by leaving a comment.
The Internet is an open forum for all to share their perspectives.
Please do YOUR part.
My comments are for anyone that has come across this article. I know you can hear the good and the bad about anyone using the internet. I want to give you my perspective because I have had a personnel relationship with Orrin for almost 12 years. What I have seen is a man who is trying to do everything he can to improve himself and live his life according biblical principles. He is just a man but he is a rare man in the fact that he constantly striving for excellence in every area of his life. To me and a lot of other people that puts him in a class of being great. In a world where everyone is blaming others and trying to find the easy way out here is a man that is trying to do it the right way. I hope the rest of us follow that example of striving to be our best.

Jerry:
You have done such a magnificent job with this article. As one who has had a front row seat for everything you talk about here, I can assure you that you have got it right! Orrin is a “what you see is what you get” guy, and I mean that in the most positive sense. After nearly two decades of working together, I can honestly say that I have never had Orrin play any games with me, hold grudges, or do anything contrary to what he teaches on stage and in his many award-winning materials. Anyone can benefit from becoming a student of Orrin Woodward and what he teaches. He’s the real deal!
Sincerely,
Chris Brady
Terrific interview. The question when initially meeting someone like Orrin, is “Who is he really?” That interview is the real Orrin. The man that thousands have come to know as the ‘real deal’. There is a saying that I have heard often: “People of integrity expect to be believed and when they are not, they let time prove them right.” Orrin has done that for years – and lots of people are starting to believe.
Orrin is one of the greatest leaders of our time not because of his rankings and awards but because he is a man of humble beginnings who chose courage to change over ego; and in the process has helped thousands and soon to be millions of people change their life also. He is a hero to many! Thank you for sharing this interview!
Blessed to be part of Team LIFE! Orrin and Laurie truly are servants and are truly the same on and off stage, just as Jerry states…Multi-millionaires willing to share their success principles thru a self education program with anyone willing to listen and then apply, so that they too can experience success for their families.
Hey Bill – Thanks for sharing. Have those 12 years been purely personal or in business as well? I’ve only known Orrin personally for 3 years, and followed his training audios for 7 years… and I must say he’s very consistent on and off stage and in different areas of his life. Good man!
Wow, Chris… WYSIWYG, huh? LOL… I remember that term from computer science.
Alright, pardon the geeky joke.
YOU are the real deal as well. I’ve been listening to your organization’s training audios for years (though never part of your business)… They are top notch and instrumental in achieving whatever success I have in business and life.
Thanks for your leadership.
Orrin has impacted the life of our family (my wife,kids myself) so much that I dont know how to put it into words. I love his leadership and also how he walks his talk. Thanks a million Orrin.
What an opportunity to get a few minutes of Orrin’s time. As you can tell he is a very humble yet very well educated person. What he and his wife Laurie have done with the leadership organization they have created has and continues to impact families accross the nation. He is a true man of character. So greatful to have discoverd his leadership system as it have impacted our lives beyond belief. Thank you Jerry for sharing this interview.
Hungry students everywhere seem to track down Orrin because truth rings sweet to the ears. That’s what happened to us. From the very first talk we heard, we knew there was something special about Orrin’s character and determination. Through a string of events that could only have been orchestrated by God, we are here on his team and very grateful for it. Thanks for all you do, Orrin!
When I ventured into the leadership business 10 years ago, I had never met or even heard of an ‘Orrin Woodward’. In the decade that I have been fighting to ‘get better and do more’, I have had the honor of having a front row seat to watch and study Orrin in every setting imaginable: on stage, back-stage, as a mentor, resolving conflict, with his family, on the basketball court, in church, behind the pulpit, in court, dealing with critics, spending time with the ‘big guys’, spending time with the ‘small guys’, and serving people at every turn. He has been the same man of purpose, honor, love and character in every situation. He is what Stephen Covey would call a leader of principle and ‘character ethic’. He is the ‘real deal’. Orrin wasn’t born a leader, he was forged into a leader by passion, study, purpose and fire! He does what he does for his family, his fellow man, his country, and for the his God. Orrin is not perfect, but there is no other person on the planet that I would trust more with my money, my family, my future, and my sacred honor! God Bless, Kirk Birtles
Wow!!! What a great interview. Thanks for another look at a amazing leader. Orrin Woodward and his group are beacons of character and integrity shining through in a industry that doesn’t always exhibit those characteristics. It is refreshing to see that these values are not dead. We can count on the information that is being produced by them to change the world.
I feel so blessed everytime I hear from Orrin in a public setting. In person, he spends so much time at helping YOU feel big, you can almost forget how BIG he is! Thanks for the interview!
Jerry,
I’ve known Orrin now for over 6 years in business and everytime I think I’ve seen the best of him, he delivers something even better the next time I’m around him. Wether it’s on stage or at his house, he is a man of character & integrity. Me & Claude Hamilton have been blessed to have him in our lives. That relationship has helped us not only in our business, but in all areas! Thanks for the article.

Jerry:
Thanks a bunch for the warm comments. I’m glad you have gained from the material. And thanks so much for putting together this great article, interview, and thread! Orrin deserves for people to learn about his “rags to riches” story!
Lead on!
Chris Brady
I’ve been involved with Orrin Woodward and Team for 5 years, and I know the information they’ve offered has impacted my life and my family’s. Regardless of your industry, Orrin Woodward, LIFE, and Team have information that can help you grow. Great article and thanks for the interview!
I thought you did a great job on this article. You know that principles are consistent. I have worked with Orrin for 10yrs and its stretched me to become better the whole time. I would recommend to anyone that doesn’t know Orrin to find his speaking schedule and go listen to him speak. It will change your life. Truth is sweet to the ears.
Jerry,
Thank you for the amazing interview. I began plugging into the Leadership materials created by Orrin Woodward about 3 years ago and when I first plugged in I was blown away by the wisdom and practical know how in-order-to develop my leadership and people skills. It was an amazing insight to my self-deception. I have been very blessed in my life to have God place in my life an amazing wife, and thanks to Orrin a way to communicate and help our marriage thrive. In many other areas of my life the practical wisdom from LIFE and TEAM have improved my Faith, Finances and my Freedom. I have had the honor of meeting Orrin a few times and every interaction was amazing. Thank you Jerry for a great interview with such a servant Leader.
The lives that have been affected by Orrin is just amazing! By saying he is a leader is an understatement. He has a mission to help people and develop even more leaders. Thank you Orrin.
Truthfully I never considered myself a follower in any catagory. It is difficult in this day and age to even know who to trust or who is speaking truth or just simply telling you what you want to hear. Sometimes we don’t want to hear the truth because we are offended. We don’t want to look at the reality of things and see them for what they are. This is my reason for choosing to listen to Orrin, because when he speaks he is simply Speaking Truth and not for his personal gain or reccognition. He is the most genuine, honest leaders of our time and if you really listen to his words, you could not deny this. I am grateful for Orrin and his courage to stand up and speak about what this country needs! What a courageous leader of principal and character!
Now when someone reads my opinion they might say, “This woman writing this is not known or valued for her opinion”. Yet, I can say with a whole heart, I know the significance his leadership has brought to not just me, but my entire family, not to mention the 1000’s of people Orrin has positively impacted. If we had “Orrin’s” running our country, Our children and grandchildren would have a life of hope and repair…we are a broken society that can and will be helped as more great leaders of integrity stand up and do what it takes to secure a future for the generations to come.
Orrin’s done a great job putting together a leadership system that anyone can utilize and apply to their lives. I started on my leadership/personal development journey with Orrin almost five years ago now. Applying the principals that Orrin and his Team organization have taught from stage, along with the personal development system that they have put together has made all the difference in my performance in my job, and has helped me work towards positively leading my family. So many times it’s easy to get distracted and even get off tract with what someone wants to accomplish in their lives. Orrin’s leadership system is designed to help focus individuals on their purpose by enhancing their strengths and providing tools to work on ones weaknesses. Thank you Orrin for all that you have done!
From the very cd I listened to and the very first book I read, I knew that my life was taking a “turning point” that was desperately needed. I love that this interview is on a yacht and not in an office!
Jerry,
Thank you for sharing the interview you did with Orrin Woodward. My wife and I have had the privilege of applying the principles that Orrin teaches into our own lives. These principles have dramatically changed our lives, and I can\’t wait to see how they will impact millions of other peoples lives. Orrin is a godly man, a man of character and a true statesman.

Jerry, Thank you for the wonderful article and interview. My life has changed dramatically since following the teachings of such a great leader in Orrin Woodward. I have made it a mission in life to study the necessary tools that will enable me to develop other leaders, who develop leaders! Our world and our children need it!!!
