His coaching approach involves thought provoking and open ended questioning techniques along with insightful exercises to allow his clients to come to their own breakthroughs.

John believes Success is different for each of his clients and involves adjusting one’s mindset in order to align their goals with the proper actions to build self confidence. Success can take many forms, financial, spiritual, health and happiness. The key is that no one else but you should dictate your definition of success.

John has run his I.T. support Company for 30+ years where he has led his teams of engineers both in Los Angeles and New York. John is a huge advocate of diversity and inclusion being fueled from his past medical challenges. John fostered teamwork and is never afraid to roll up his sleeves and help out when the project needs his expertise. John instilled confidence in his I.T. clients by being honest and putting the clients needs above his. Some of his clients have been with John and his company for more than 30 years. which is very rare in the tech industry. As a leadership coach, John shares his time-tested methods and secrets that have made him successful.

As a professional magician, John has worked with some of the best in the business, including the legendary Doug Henning and Robert 'Bob' Fitch, who strongly influenced his Coaching style. As a Coach, John uses his creative problem solving skills to develop custom routines with his audiences as metaphors for his messages of overcoming adversity and being different is your superpower. When you work with John, the sessions are not about learning new effects as much as answering the questions “Why did you choose performing Magic as your artform?” and “What do you want to share about yourself through your magic?” John is a firm believer that audiences leave magic performances not remembering the specifics of a trick, but how you made them feel, and what they learn about themselves from his illusions and stories. He works to find his students' life passions and help custom create magic presentations that communicate who they are as human beings.

My two experiences with John as a Magic Coach were fantastic. In the first case, I really needed some simple direction - and that's exactly what he gave me. In the second case, I needed to improve one effect and he gave me a quick fix and a longer range approach. John was great to work with in both instances - and provided me exactly with what I needed! - George R.

How do you define someone who unselfishly provides their unique ability to understand and connect with your personal performance style in just two words? Someone who will influence your magic, enabling an emotional connection that will be remembered by your audiences, not only for your performance but for how you made them feel during your event. I can tell you from personal experience that ultimately allowed me to fulfill my dream of being a featured close-up performer at the Magic Castle; the two words are John Kippen. - James B.
