From the highs of Wall Street trading to the lows of federal prison, Jordan Belfort has had one of the most prolific careers in recent history. The real Wolf of Wall Street, Jordan is the man behind both the book and the film of the same name, having risen to fame following his downfall on the trading floor. Reinventing himself as a motivational speaker and the number one sales trainer in the world, Jordan has taken his lessons learned from failure, and success to develop the sales entrepreneurs of tomorrow. Through captivating and invigorating talks, Jordan empowers corporate clients to harness their potential and reap the financial rewards. Gaining notoriety for his Wall Street exploits, Jordan founded Stratton Oakmont in the 1990s, a brokerage house, following his failure and bankruptcy as a food salesman.
Growing the businesses to over 1000 employees, Jordan is credited with its fast-tracked success and earning himself over $50 million a year, a visionary entrepreneur. However, greed got the better of the young pioneer, and he was soon caught up in a series of frauds and money laundering, which fuelled his lavish party lifestyle. Despite the fame and fortune, Jordan’s fall from grace came in 1999 when he pled guilty to his crimes and served 22 months in prison for stock-market manipulation. Since his release from prison, Jordan has transformed his global reputation to that of a leading sales guru, armed with lessons learned from his past career. With such an incredible life story, Jordan is the inspiration behind the film ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ of which Leonardo DiCaprio won a Golden Globe for his portrayal of Jordan.
He also published a New York Times best-selling book by the same name, followed by ‘Catching the Wolf of Wall Street’ which expanded on his escapades as a stockbroker. Having repaid his debts and righted his wrongs, Jordan is now recognised as the #1 Sales Trainer in the World, relating his experience of selling stocks to the industries of corporate clients. Jordan’s sales seminars expand on the content of his most recent book ‘Way of the Wolf: Straight Line Selling: Master the Art of Persuasion, Influence, and Success’ and explore his world-leading Straight Line Sales System. One of the highest-profile, international public speakers, Jordan has completed a live tour of Australia on ‘The Truth Behind His Success’ alongside hundreds of transformative industry engagements.
