Steven Campbell
After working in hospital administration for twenty years, Steven Campbell acquired his Masters at the University of San Francisco and went on to pursue his greatest love… teaching. As both a university professor and educational dean in northern California for another 20 years, he now presents easy to understand principles on the brain that can be immediately applied to improve the quality of our thoughts and lives. Steven writes columns in The Community Voice, The Christian Bee and Napa Valley Life Magazine and is author of Making Your Mind Magnificent – Flourishing at Any Age.
SPEAKING TOPICS:
- How We Learn – An eye-opening look at the latest research on how your brain learns and then believes everything you tell it…without question. We learn new ways of thinking (especially when you make those crazy mistakes).
- Changing How You See Yourself – An astounding look at the origins of your self-images; one for every skill, talent, aptitude, skill, passion and capacity you have. We learn that although you cannot remove them, YOU CAN CREATE NEW ONES, as discovered by Dr. Eric Kandel’s research, for which he received a Nobel Prize.
- Creating Goals that Work – We learn the reason goals are so important, and how our self-images are based solely on what we say to ourselves – about ourselves, and what others say to us do not become a part of us until we agree with them.
- Changing Your Have-To’s to Want-To’s – An amazing presentation at the correct motivation for change. There are in fact two: “Restrictive” and “Constructive.” Restrictive actually holds you back, while Constructive (“I don’t HAVE to do this, I WANT to. I like what I’m becoming, I LOVE what I’m doing, and it’s MY idea”) actually drives you forward.
- Learned Optimism- We consider the work of Dr. Martin E.P. Seligman out of the University of Pennsylvania, and how people CAN learn to be more optimistic by changing the way they think, especially during the hard times many of us are now facing (job loss, bankruptcies, sickness, etc.)
- When We Get Discouraged – We explore the work of Drs. Albert Ellis and Robert Harper on Cognitive Psychology and how our feelings do NOT come from what happens to us, but from our beliefs about what happens to us. We then discover how we can change those beliefs.

TESTIMONIALS:
“Without reservation, this was the best presentation I’ve seen in many years. Some years ago, I heard a presentation by Lou Holtz, the famous football coach, and many of the things he said have stuck with me and been useful going through my life. I would rank a presentation by Steve Campbell to be of that same caliber. Steve is a wonderful mentor and guides the audience on a journey of self-awareness and personal growth. It would be impossible to not be happier after hearing him speak, and I will carry a few of his insights on personal happiness with me for the rest of my life. I liked him so much, I bought two of his books….one to keep and one to share with important people in my life.”
– Richard Almini, President & CEO, Legacy Mechanical & Energy Services, Inc.
“Steven was outstanding. It took only about 5 minutes into his presentation when I knew that were in for a wonderful ride….as I scanned the audience, I saw many smiling and nodding their heads in affirmation. His topic quickly tapped into some underlying challenges that we all struggle with. He frequently referenced his sources, authors and experts in the field to further punctuate his points and theories. The use of his personal stories and experiences made his presentation human and relatable. It was very apparent that his presentation was very carefully crafted over a long period of time to come to this superb finished product. I can only speak from a subjective point of view, but his presentation was by far the best we’ve had so far.
– Scott Chambers, DC, Rotary Club of Niles Fremont, Program Chair
“Steven Campbell had the Chamber members spellbound with his engaging style and subject matter. He has the right mix of science, story and humor that keeps everyone interested and looking for more information. I had no idea that our minds were so powerful.”
– Pam Stafford, Rohnert Park City Council Member
“Bottle him up and let every caregiver have a case!”
– Northern California Alzheimer’s Association
“I have been traveling, but postponed leaving for Colorado so I could hear Steve talk, and I am glad I did. His explanation of how our brains process what we tell it was eye opening, and undeniable when you think about it. Thank you very much for arranging his speaking to us.”
– Ed LaBarre, Rotary Club of Sausalito, Program Chair
“When I first heard Steve, it seemed that after he started speaking, suddenly it was over! He was fabulous and his ideas where amazing, I bought his book and literally started reading it while I walked away after his presentation.”
– Michelle A. Douhitt, Sacramento, CA
“In all my years as a practicing psychologist I have attended many seminars on the brain and behavior….but none quite like yours. “Intelligent Heart” is such an apropos name! Your style of presentation is so intellectually and emotionally palpable it’s actually scintillating at times. The material seems fresh and exciting even if it already familiar. Everything comes alive.”
– Kelley Shawn Dolan, Ph.D
“I think it would be safe to say that Steve changed several people’s lives after listening to his presentation. I would recommend Steve as a lecturer, speaker, or mentor to anyone interested in improving his or her life of business career. If you ever have the chance to go listen to one of Steve’s presentations, DO IT. You will not be sorry.”
