In addition, he is an affiliate faculty member for the University of North Carolina, Keenan-Flagler School of Business.

Prior to starting his firm Edinger Consulting Group, Scott worked with some of the most respected thought leaders in the performance consulting business including Neil Rackham on sales effectiveness, Jack Zenger on leadership and teams, and Joe Folkman on employee engagement. Scott adapts his experience working with those mentors to develop innovative solutions that generate dramatic and sustainable results for his clients.

Having worked at one of the “Big Four” professional services firms, as well as various prominent training and consulting firms, Scott has always produced great results. As the Executive Vice President for Zenger Folkman, he helped the organization achieve unprecedented growth during the worst recession since the Great Depression– the firm nearly doubled in size during his tenure. As Senior Vice President of Sales at Huthwaite, he led the company to record levels of growth and success.

Scott attended Florida State University where he received a BS in Rhetoric and Communication. Reflecting his desire to give back to the FSU community, Scott serves on alumni committees including the Board of the College of Communication and Information and Seminole Torchbearers. He also serves on the Board of Directors for The Florida Health Choices Corporation.

He was featured in the Gulf Coast Business Journal as one of the “40 under 40” Leaders to watch in the Tampa Bay Area. Although he cannot read music and is not a Mormon, he has performed with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Scott and his family live in Tampa, Florida.

Scott delivered a keynote speech during a senior leadership offsite that was OUTSTANDING. His enthusiasm, knowledge of the material, and ability to connect with the participants ensured the participants came away with the key messages. — AVP, Organization Effectiveness, Allianz

After seeing Scott present at a conference earlier in the year, I knew that I wanted him to deliver a keynote speech for the Fall American Society of Training and Development conference. He agreed and we were delighted! His content was well researched, and his delivery was both engaging and enlightening. The post-event feedback was that Scott’s session was the most valuable of the conference. I intend to use Scott in the future and highly recommend him to others looking to educate and engage their audiences. — Vice President, Talent Management, Kool Smiles LLC

I have worked with Scott for the last three years, and as a keynote speaker for our conference I consistently hear that he is one of the best sessions at our events. As a speaker he is engaging, energetic, and charismatic, in addition to having practical and useful ideas for the participants. You can tell just by the way he speaks he loves what he does and is very passionate about delivering value for everyone involved. — Executive Director, GDS International Events
