LLOYD ABRIA LUNA, the first Filipino to represent the Philippines in Global Speakers Summit, the first to speak in a French and European Speakers Convention, and the first to become member of the board of Global Speakers Federation, is a renowned professional speaker and author. He is the founder and CEO of Stepback, a leadership development and culture transformation company that helps leaders and organizations see the bigger picture in life and at work. He has been an Asian motivational speaker for over 10 years, delivering an average of 120 inspirational speeches annually. He has authored 16 books and is a radio and television talk-show host, songwriter, publisher, and serial entrepreneur.
The youngest board member of the Global Speakers Federation, a $1bn industry that has an extended reach to over 53,000 thought leaders that impact over 50,000,000 households every year. It has 15 member-countries worldwide including the Philippines. Lloyd is the founder and president of the Philippine Association of Professional Speakers.
As author and originator of Stepback™—the lost art of Filipino leadership— Lloyd teaches the practice of putting people at the center of leadership. Using his in-depth study of the building of the 2,000-year-old Philippine Rice Terraces of the Cordilleras, which has been named as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Lloyd believes that great leaders are shaped and defined by three crucial steps they make for their people: (1) stepping in educate them; (2) stepping back to delegate to them; and (3) stepping up to grow with them.
His discovery has been the cornerstone of organizational programs such as leadership development, sales and marketing, management, administration, training, business development, and innovation and change.
Lloyd is the president of LLOYDLUNA Communications, the parent company of Stepback, Umbrella Speakers, Scroll Publishing, Skybell Clothing, and Peaches Music.
Lloyd has been a resource speaker in over 1,000 conventions, conferences, and seminars, has appeared in over 200 media interviews, and has spoken on leadership to personnel of several major global companies worldwide, to key managers and staff of Philippine government agencies, and to students and faculty of various schools in Asia.
For his work as motivational speaker, Lloyd has been conferred scores of awards over the years, among them the Collegiate Ambassador for Peace award in South Korea, remarkable alumnus of Polytechnic University of the Philippines, and the 2010 SM Supermarket Brand Ambassador award. At age 31, he was nominated for the 2013 Ten Outstanding Young Men of the Philippines award. In 2018, he was also considered by Go Negosyo for the ASEAN Business Awards.
