Douglas Frazier | Corporate Magician, Keynote Speaker & Workshop Leader for Business Events

Douglas Frazier has spent over two decades mastering how to hold attention, shift perspective, and create unforgettable moments. His career began on stage, where he learned that magic is not about tricks, but about how people think, feel, and connect. That understanding carried into a business career at the highest levels. Douglas earned his MBA and went on to serve as a Senior Advisor at the State Department and the National Security Council, shaping policy on cybersecurity and Middle East affairs. At Microsoft, he helped build the Azure ecosystem across 180 countries, driving adoption of cloud transformation and cutting-edge innovation. This range of experience in public, private, and government work grounds his approach in real-world leadership at the top. A conversation with a group of executives after a performance revealed the link between these two worlds. The same principles that make magic work, such as focus, timing, and perspective, also drive high-performing teams and innovative leaders. That insight became the Wonder Effect™ Framework, a hands-on approach that blends interactive illusions with real-world tools.

His programs turn curiosity into collaboration and leave teams reconnected to their mission and driven to act.
