From Humble Beginnings to Global Stages
Some people are born to speak. Karl Hartey was one of them.
Some people find the idea of standing up in front of an audience terrifying. Not Karl!
When you have knowledge that can change lives, you don’t keep it to yourself. You share it.
The Early Days – From Farm Halls to Global Arenas
Karl’s journey into public speaking didn’t start with packed auditoriums or global conferences. It started with humility—and a few shaky hands.
His first talks were to small groups—Young Farmers, the Women’s Institute, local community events in Shropshire and Mid Wales. No grand stages, no big lights. Just real people, real conversations, and a passion for educating others. Then, in 1998, everything changed. Karl was invited to speak on the main platform of the Million Dollar Round Table (MDRT) in Chicago. His talk?
“Milking Cows to Top of the Table”
A 25-minute keynote in front of over 5,000 people—and the moment that changed everything. From that day forward, Karl wasn’t just a financial expert. He was a global speaker.
Speaking on the World’s Biggest Financial Stages
Since that pivotal moment in Chicago, Karl has become one of the most sought-after speakers in financial services, delivering powerful, high-energy talks across the world.
- 4-time MDRT Main Platform Speaker
- Top of the Table (TOT) Main Platform Speaker – one of the most prestigious stages in global finance
- Keynote speaker at elite financial and business conferences worldwide
- Regular speaker at private client events across the UK
His talks are honest, direct, inspiring, and deeply personal. Whether he’s addressing thousands of professionals at an international conference or speaking to a select group of high-net-worth clients, Karl’s mission remains the same:
To deliver a message that educates, empowers, and resonates—long after the audience has left the room.
The Hall of Fame Moment – Headlining in Vancouver Island
