Jeff Black
Author and Lead Consultant, The Black Sheep
Jeff named his company Black Sheep for two reasons: 1) He became the black sheep for not going into the family business.

He offers coaching, consulting and training programs on projecting executive presence, delivering strong presentations, demonstrating excellent communication skills, influencing customers and talking to the media.
With his first book from Morgan James Publishing, Unleash Your BS (Best Self), Jeff is now a sought after keynote speaker—engaging, entertaining, and cajoling audiences to strengthen their personal brands. Some of his strategies for success come from his work in television, both in front of and behind the camera: assistant to the executive producer of a primetime TV drama, weather anchor, news reporter, and on-air host for his state’s lottery drawing.
Jeff holds a bachelor’s degree in Public Relations from the University of South Carolina and a master’s degree in Administration and Human Resources Management from Troy University. He has earned the highest level of professional accreditation from the Public Relations Society of America and the National Speakers Association.
