Working with Steve Spangler and his agent, Carly Reed, was an exceptional experience from start to finish. What impressed me most was Steve’s investment in the experience before, during, and after the event. His follow-up and continued interest in future STEM opportunities that bring people together speak volumes about his commitment to making science accessible and exciting. I wholeheartedly recommend Steve Spangler to anyone looking to create an unforgettable, impactful STEM experience.

Steve Spangler was an exceptional speaker! He was motivating, engaging, and left us with a message we will never forget. A great presenter makes you feel a range of emotions—and that’s exactly what Steve did. I laughed, cried, and left feeling inspired to create meaningful experiences that help students truly learn.

I’ve had the privilege of calling Steve Spangler a friend for more than 25 years, and we’ve shared the stage countless times. Whether it’s squirrelly 3rd graders, stressed-out educators, or high-pressure executives, I’ve seen Steve work his magic to get any group fully engaged. He has mastered the art of creating experiences—both big and small—that connect, inspire, and leave a lasting impact. In The Engagement Effect, Steve pulls back the curtain and shares the insights, stories, and strategies that will help you create your own moments of connection and engagement.

Steve Spangler hit it out of the park once again at our annual Splash conference. Truly a “Best Day Ever” experience for all of our attendees. Absolutely the opposite of your ordinary keynote speaker.

Steve Spangler’s impact on Littleton Public Schools spans over three decades. What began in the classroom has become a legacy of helping educators throughout our district bring learning to life. The Engagement Effect is filled with the same strategies and mindset that Steve has shared with our teachers—tools that help create powerful learning experiences and meaningful student connections.

Whether it was connecting 1,600 students through a human circuit or challenging our principals to create their own ‘Best Day Ever’ moments, Steve Spangler showed us that engagement is more than a buzzword—it’s a mindset. The Engagement Effect is a blueprint for how he thinks, plans, and inspires at the highest level.

We’ve had Steve Spangler on stage at the Innovative Schools Summit enough times to know this—he shows up with purpose and delivers every time. He brings engagement, connection, and ideas that stick. The Engagement Effect isn’t just a book—it’s a behind-the-scenes pass to how he does it, and why it works.

The strongest brands don’t just sell products—they create experiences that connect, inspire, and build trust. That’s what we saw when Excelligence acquired Steve Spangler Science. Steve’s work has always gone beyond science, products and speaking; it’s about sparking curiosity and cultivating engagement. The Engagement Effect distills that mission into a powerful playbook for leaders and educators who want to elevate every interaction into something meaningful, memorable, and transformative.
