Las Vegas headliner. Emcee. Keynote speaker. Philanthropist. Jeff Civillico helps organizations activate influence at every level.
Every event lives or dies in the room. People sit through slides all day, energy dips after lunch, and the moments that are supposed to land just slide by. You need someone who can read the room, own the energy, and make sure your people leave saying it was the best one yet.
For more than fifteen years I’ve done exactly that, from sales kickoffs and awards nights to children’s hospitals, blending real skill with real heart so the message actually holds. Tell me what you’re trying to make happen, and let’s build the version of the day your people are still talking about Monday morning.
Whether your goal is inspiring your audience, energizing your team, elevating your meeting, or creating unforgettable moments, explore the experience that’s right for you.
After his TEDx talk reached millions, Jeff asked one question:
Why did the phrase, ‘everyday influencer,’ resonate so deeply?
That curiosity led to a national research study, The Hidden Power of Everyday Influence.
Real influence is not reserved for titles or visibility.
It lives in everyday actions.
When people recognize their influence, engagement rises.
Ownership increases. Culture strengthens.
Influence is built through proximity, consistency, and presence.
In an era defined by burnout and digital overload, organizations need leadership models that are human and practical.
Say someone positively influenced their life.
Only point to a social media or online influencer as the source of positive influence.
Believe social media has made it harder to be a positive influence.
Influence is built through proximity, consistency, and presence.
In an era defined by burnout and digital overload, organizations need leadership models that are human and practical.

After his TEDx talk, How to Be an Everyday Influencer, went viral, Jeff commissioned a first-of-its-kind national research study on how influence is created in everyday life. The work produced The Hidden Power of Everyday Influence, a framework rooted in a simple but counterintuitive truth: most people dramatically underestimate the influence they already have.
This keynote, Everyday Influence: Quiet Power That Moves People, Shapes Culture, and Ignites Possibility, brings this research to life and challenges every person in the room to stop waiting for permission to lead.
Philanthropy has always been central to Jeff’s work, shaping his performances, partnerships, and purpose. A recipient of the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award for Volunteer Service, he has dedicated his career to making service and giving back a priority.
Jeff is the Founder and Chairman of Win Win Charity, a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit that brings joy to children in hospitals through visits from entertainers, athletes, and celebrities. Its weekly virtual program, Win Win LIVE, reaches more than 100 children’s hospitals nationwide with live and on-demand content.
Through the Public Education Foundation, Jeff created the Cisko Sound Scholarship in honor of his longtime friend, Craig Palcisko. The renewable scholarship supports Las Vegas Academy of the Arts seniors pursuing theater or sound studies, where Jeff also serves on the Advisory Board. In 2023, he launched Laughter Without Borders, a travel series dedicated to uplifting disadvantaged and at-risk children around the world.
Jeff fully commits to every cause he supports, from “joggling” a full marathon for athletes for special kids to rappelling down Planet Hollywood while juggling for Special Olympics Nevada. He continuously finds creative ways to make an impact, even setting a world record for bungee jumping on a unicycle in New Zealand.
1994
Selected as a volunteer by performer “Peter Panic” in Harvard Square on a family trip at the age of ten. The lights, sound, and rush of a live audience set the compass for everything that came after.
1995
Became obsessed with juggling, the perfect outlet for his endless energy, and the rare mix of sport and art that was uniquely his own. Through countless hours of practice and family support, “Jeff the Juggler” was born.
1998
A gold medal from the International Jugglers Association at age 15 gave Jeff internal permission to lean in. On that same family trip to Las Vegas, he saw variety entertainers perform, painting a picture of what leaning in could look like.
1999
Landed a dream summer job at 16: six shows a day, six days a week at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. That work ethic carried across theme parks, fairs, clubs, cruise ships, and corporate events, building the confidence and instincts that power every event he does now.
2000
Formed a high school juggling club performing at children’s hospitals, special needs organizations, and senior care facilities. Through this experience Jeff discovered how fulfilling it was to perform for those in need and how much he loved bringing people together.
2001
Attended Georgetown University and fell in love with pursuing an atypical path, applying the same discipline his peers gave traditional careers to entertainment. Jeff performed constantly throughout college, solo and with the Chimes, Georgetown’s oldest male a cappella group.
2005
He graduated… just FYI 🙂 This one was for Mom & Dad.
2007
Headlining on Disney Cruise Line led to a 3-year stint in Orlando, where he performed everywhere from Disney Springs to The Boardwalk Resort. Jeff also developed as an emcee, hosting major events like the Disney Marathon and the Food & Wine Festival at Epcot.
2009
Became the youngest Producer/Headliner in Vegas history, landing a decade-long residency with Caesars Entertainment. During this time, Jeff realized how much he loved the business side of the industry. Ten years and 5,000+ shows later, Jeff had turned a dream into a resume.
2012
Founded Win Win Charity, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that brings smiles to children in hospitals through visits from professional entertainers. Win Win Charity currently serves 100+ children’s hospitals weekly, and has become a key aspect of Jeff’s mission.
2023
Official permission to widen the lane: being inducted into the National Speakers Association “Speaker Hall of Fame” (CPAE) confirmed that the next chapter wasn’t just about making people laugh, but about moving them.
2024
At TEDx Purdue, Jeff said out loud what three decades had quietly been showing him: real influence lives in everyday actions, and most people dramatically underestimate the influence they already have. “How to Be an Everyday Influencer” went viral and opened the door to research, writing, and teaching.
2025
Released Jeff Civillico: Comedy in Action, a family-friendly comedy special and documentary hybrid capturing his 10-year Strip run: big laughs, jaw-dropping juggling, and wild audience interaction. Streaming now on Prime, Apple TV+, YouTube TV, and Google Play.
2026
Jeff published The Hidden Power of Everyday Influence, a white paper from his national research study on influence. The findings sparked a second keynote, Everyday Influence: Quiet Power that Moves People, Shapes Culture, and Ignites Action, and a new book coming Spring 2027.
Jeff Civillico is the Founder and Chairman of Win Win Charity, a national nonprofit dedicated to bringing smiles to children in hospitals.
The organization arranges in-person and virtual visits from entertainers, athletes, and celebrities to create moments of joy for children and families during challenging times.
Win Win Charity operates in more than 20 cities and serves over 30 children’s hospitals. It is entirely volunteer-based with no paid staff, and all performers donate their time.
For Jeff, influence is not just a message. It is a mission lived out in action.
