Joel Block

Joel Turns Your Leaders into Advantage Players®.

He helps leaders see what others miss, act when others hesitate, and think beyond the obvious to gain the upper hand.

An Advantage Player (and former professional blackjack expert), Joel knows how to outplay competitors by spotting the hidden signals and stacking the odds in his favor. He brought these killer strategies into the high-stakes world of venture capital and hedge funds, where he’s scrutinized over 1,000 companies and been part of $1 billion in deals. Joel’s mission? To shift how audiences think about the future of their companies, arming them with practical strategies for riding trends, negotiating better deals, and growing in turbulent markets.

Joel transforms your leaders into Advantage Players by exposing them to today’s most disruptive trends and showing them how to ride “the wave” long before others realize it’s building. He identifies momentum shifts, calculates risks, and bets big on high-probability outcomes. Your audience will learn to assess opportunities and position themselves to win - just like Joel.

Las Vegas casinos banned Joel from their blackjack tables for a reason, but his strategies aren’t limited to the casino floor. Learn the art of Advantage Play - the science of winning decisively. The best part? It’s a skill that anyone can learn.

You will leave knowing how to make winning inevitable - every play, every decision, every time.
