While serving as the Director of Mental Training for the St Louis Cardinals, Dr. Jason Selk helped the team win their first world series in over 20 years, and in 2011 he assisted the Cardinals in the historic feat of winning their second world championship in a six-year period.
In addition to working with world-class athletes, Dr. Selk helps business leaders, executives, and top sales people develop mental toughness, increase confidence and focus, and substantially grow the bottom line. More importantly, he helps his clients achieve life balance and health, because people who are happier are the ones who are most successful.
A licensed mental health professional, Dr. Selk earned his doctorate in counseling and sport psychology at the University of Missouri. His client list includes companies such as Morgan Stanley, Ernst & Young, Merrill Lynch, Edward Jones, Bacardi, and Enterprise Rent-a-Car. A regular contributor to Forbes and Inc., he has been featured in such publications as Success, Men’s Health, Shape, Self, and USA today, and on television and radio shows on CNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, and ESPN.
In 2022, Dr. Selk also co-founded Level Up — a performance coaching mobile app that combines video lessons by Dr. Selk plus practice and implementation in the app to drive ultimate accountability, discipline and habit for long-term success.
His latest book Relentless Solution Focus has hit the best-seller list multiple times. Selk’s earlier book, Executive Toughness, was ranked one of the best career development books ever published by Book Authority. His first book, 10-Minute Toughness, is on pace to be one of the best-selling sports psychology books of all time, while Organize Tomorrow Today was ranked as a top best-selling business book of 2016 by CEO Read. And in 2018, his book Lead Any Team to Win was recognized by Bloomberg as one of the top ten best leadership books of the year.
Jason's philosophy is that he knows he will play a small role in his clients' lives, but he takes his role very seriously. He believes it is his responsibility to show up every day fully prepared. Whether it be with speaking or coaching, there is no excuse for his message to be anything less than compelling, thoughtful, and highly effective.
