BLAIR BRYANT NICHOLS

After beginning his career representing hundreds of authors from Top 6 publishers, Blair Bryant Nichols moved into the management of founders, entrepreneurs, executives, authors, and celebrities with various work streams, projects, and personal interests, acting as a Chief of Staff, manager, or agent. He has a deep expertise in developing speakers for corporate events, conferences, and other thought leadership opportunities, including internal and external communications. As a manager, coach and consultant he enjoys helping diverse individuals and/or socially-driven companies foster new strategies for operations, communications, business development and partnerships across all appropriate areas to further develop and enhance their bottom line and brand.

Blair is the author of “Before You Fall in Love…” a series of personal essays on Medium and the former Co-Host of Inside the Greenroom Podcast, a behind the scenes look at the ever changing landscape of live events and the speaking business. He earned his M.B.A from UCLA-Anderson with a specialization in Entertainment Management and a B.A. Magna Cum Laude in Literature with minors in Communications and Gender Studies from American University. He is also a graduate of the Columbia Publishing Course, a summer course at Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. When he’s not buried in emails or Zoom meetings, he enjoys traveling to new and distant places, reading, creating, and spending time at home in West Hollywood or Lake Arrowhead with friends, his husband Gray (who designed this beautiful site, check him out at gjkcooke.com) and Shepherd-mix Aspen.

Testimonials

Outstanding! That's the first word that comes to mind when I think about working with Blair. Blair helped explode my corporate speaking business 6x over the past year, and I could not be more grateful. Not only is he responsive and professional, Blair is also a true collaborator and partner who is always looking for creative opportunities to grow my profile and business as a whole.

— Melody Wilding, LMSW and author of Trust Yourself

“Blair and I met and it was unintentionally perfect. Sure, what I do and what he does had an instant great connection, but it was Blair’s candor, focus and strategic mind that matched what I needed. As I continue to grow, Blair is there helping me find people and opportunities to make that happen, quicker and more aligned. Blair is the type of partner who you might sync up with for one reason, and then months and years down the road, realize how he can fill almost any bucket you need.”

— AJ Sarcione, founder of Get Your Shine
