Scott is a graduate of the City University of New York and the George Washington University School of Law. After practicing as an attorney for 18 years, Scott Hunter's insights into personal and professional effectiveness and the dynamics of organizational behavior spurred him on to redirect his career efforts. As a professional speaker and seminar leader during the 1980's, he focused on teaching the principles of success, prosperity, satisfaction and fulfillment.

He then founded The Hunter Partnership Alliance, and for the past twenty three years, Scott has worked with a wide range of organizations throughout the U.S. including professional service firms and companies in the following industries: health care, accounting and finance, manufacturing, advertising/marketing/public relations, building/developing and construction, aerospace, restaurants, real estate and insurance.

Today, in addition to his work with individuals and the management of companies and firms, he leads workshops and seminars and has delivered hundreds of speeches to business groups. He has spoken at conventions sponsored by the University of Washington School of Law, The California Dental Association, the Association of Legal Administrators, the National Association of Legal Placement, the National Law Firm Marketing Association, the National Association of Legal Vendors and many others. Scott has taught a course on personal and business success at Western State University School of Law and has authored numerous articles for business publications. He has frequently appeared on both radio and television.

Scott is a member of and has lectured to the Professional Coaches and Mentors Association and is also a member of the International Coach Federation, the largest professional organization in the world representing the coaching profession. He has been awarded by that organization the designation Master Certified Coach, MCC.

Scott Hunter has been transforming organizations for over two decades, through keynote speeches, workshops, retreats and management team coaching.

Since 1985 he has helped hundreds of businesses, delivered over 1,000 speeches and worked with over 100,000 individuals as a business coach and speaker. He has conducted over 150 corporate retreats for groups as small as 2 and as large as 44, consistently producing breakthroughs in the participants personal and professional lives and setting the stage for the companies they manage to achieve results that go way beyond their expectations.

Clients say things like, "In the 9 months since we started to work with you, we've had more opportunities and successes than in the previous 9 years." Or, "You changed the way we do business and oh yes, my family life works better too."

Scott didn't start out as an organizational change agent. Following receipt of an engineering degree from the City University of New York, Scott spent four years working in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in Washington, DC while he attended George Washington Law School at night, graduating in the top 10% of his class. He moved to California and eventually opened a private law practice.

Scott's own success journey seemed to be stalled. After 11 years, he was still struggling to pay the bills. He was divorced. Even his secretary quit.

And that's when Scott's real career started. He began researching what it takes for people to produce extraordinary results in their personal lives and careers and for companies to break through to new levels of profitability and success. He took classes. He read books and signed up for one seminar after another.

It took several years, but ultimately Scott's whole life turned around. He became a partner in a major law firm, managing an office and enjoying an income he had only dreamed of previously.

In 1983, Scott decided to retire from his law practice so he could help other companies make the same success journey he had made. Using what he learned painfully, through trial and error, he realized he could guide others to move to their own success goals, bypassing costly, time-consuming detours. He created a 5-step system to deliver repeatable results and he has been teaching that system for the last 20+ years.

Now Scott works as a successful business coach and speaker. He speaks to thousands of people each year and shares advice with CEOs of corporations of all sizes. His book, Making Work Work has received successful reviews and garnered a following among executives, professionals and students. He's been recognized as an "expert" on over 50 radio talk shows and appeared on a number of television news programs. And he makes time for his favorite avocation: cycling trips to explore new countries and scenes around the world.

Scott continues to work to stretch the limits of his knowledge and his capabilities. He has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars and devoted months of his life to seminars and programs. He's studied with the best coaches, motivational speakers and industry leaders.

"Scott has the rare ability to touch people's hearts and turn those emotions into practical action; to rattle cages and challenge the status quo, then provide a roadmap for audiences to follow; to discuss broad life values and connect them to work-related values."
