About Shama in Dallas
Bringing world-class keynotes to Dallas
Dallas-Fort Worth is where corporate ambition meets operational grit. Shama Hyder fits that profile. She started a company right out of school after 18 consulting firms said no. Built it from $1,500 to a multimillion-dollar exit serving Fortune 500 clients like AT&T, Verizon, and Toyota. She's a Henry Crown Fellow at the Aspen Institute and has shared stages with the Dalai Lama and President Obama. She also has deep Texas roots and considers DFW home turf.
From the AT&T Discovery District to the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, Dallas event planners book Shama when they need real frameworks, not motivation posters. Her Applied AI, growth strategy, and customer loyalty keynotes are built for audiences that run companies and make decisions. Every talk is custom-tailored to the specific industry and strategic challenges in the room.
No travel surcharge for DFW events. A speaker who knows Texas business culture from the inside. And a track record that includes 500+ keynotes and work with Microsoft, JPMorgan Chase, Salesforce, NASA, and Bloomberg. That's what Dallas gets.
Based in Texas — no travel surcharge for DFW events. Also available for Austin, Houston, San Antonio, and other Texas locations.
