"Mr. Dau is a true leader, inspiration, a real star. I have never been so moved by a speaker. I feel inspired to make a difference in the world."  - Syracuse University Student

John SpeakingJohn is an accomplished keynote speaker on the plight of those living in South Sudan and on his own personal story. He has become a successful keynote speaker in the United States, Canada and abroad. He presents his story in a way that displays the violence and devastation delivered against the people of South Sudan by the northern dominated Sudanese government and emphasizes the importance of perseverance and character development. The documentary God Grew Tired of Us, which won the two top awards (audience and critics) for documentaries at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival, captures his personal story and the story of the Lost Boys of Sudan. This film has made John a desirable speaker for colleges, civic groups and church organizations throughout the United States.

John speaks on a variety of topics at corporations, churches and colleges, including an address to 10,000 people at the University of Minnesota's College of Arts and Sciences graduation in 2007 and top executives at a United Technologies Corporation conference in 2008.
