Own Your Career Own Your Life

I am on a mission to teach and inspire more people to own their careers. I do this via my book, podcast, speaking engagements, and training program. Companies hire me to teach their people how to own their careers so that they are more confident, engaged, have more conversations with their managers, and stay with the organization longer, which saves the company thousands of dollars. 

I've worked with companies across multiple industries and spoken to employees all over the world. 

I have worked with several different organizations and pride myself on a fundamental understanding of what is needed to drive successful career development and growth.

Talent Development Hot Seat

The Talent Development Hot Seat is a podcast for Talent & Leadership Development professionals to share and learn from each other about the latest trends in the industry. Each week, the podcast will feature a new interview with a leader in the Talent Development/L&D world and ask them to share their greatest accomplishments, challenges and some of the top trends they are seeing in the L&D profession. 

WHY YOU SHOULD LISTEN: Each week, I share insights that will allow the listeners to learn about the latest tools and trends and to become more successful in their own jobs as Talent Development professionals. The podcast will also feature thought leaders who are making a difference in the Talent Development world

WHY BE A GUEST: Not only do you get a chance to share your experience, wisdom and POV, but I also love helping my guests build their personal brand. Here is a quote from one of my guests who runs L&D at a very large multinational company: 

"Thanks again Andy, this thing is helping me create a solid professional brand... something I’ve been trying to be much more intentional about the past two years."

The Andy Storch Show

I created this show to share my personal development journey along with many lessons to help and inspire others. This show was about starving your fears and achieving big goals and we did just that before the show eventually morphed into the Own Your Career show when I published my book, Own Your Career Own Your Life. All episodes are still live and can be heard by scrolling back on the Own Your Career show.

As a partner at APG, I had the privilege of working with clients to create and implement experiential learning solutions to equip individuals, teams, and organizations to do the best work for their lives.

I was also certified to facilitate such great programs as Multipliers, Influence Inside, Decision Mojo, and others.

The Entrepreneur Hot Seat Podcast

The Entrepreneur Hot Seat was my first podcast and one where I interviewed entrepreneurs of all types to hear what had made them successful. I learned a ton by doing this show and it was really the start of my entreprneurial journey. This show eventually morphed into the Andy Storch Show and then the Own Your Career show, but you can still find all of the episodes on iTunes and other places by going to the Own Your Career show:

Founder & Host

BTS was where I truly cut my teeth as a consultant and facilitator. I was very lucky to work with great leaders and organizations and to fly all over the world to run workshops teaching strategy, finance, leadership, and business acumen. Some clients included Salesforce, Oracle, Autodesk, Deloitte, KPMG, Accenture, Toyota, and more. 

This is also where I discovered my knacks for building relationships, facilitating engaging programs, and getting results. 

I am very proud of my time at BTS and love the culture I got to be part of and still recommend the organization today.
