Will Packer: Producing Life’s Blockbusters and Paying It Forward

Will Packer is a visionary film and television producer whose storytelling prowess has captivated audiences worldwide. From humble beginnings making self-distributed indie films to producing box office hits like "Girls Trip," "Think Like a Man," and "Ride Along," Will is recognized for blending creativity with strong leadership and relentless drive. An advocate for payingit forward and empowering others, he recently released his book Who Better Than You? The Art of Healthy Arrogance and Dreaming Big, sharing leadership lessons and the mindset that fueled his incredible journey from St. Petersburg, Florida, to Hollywood’s elite.

 

 Takeaways:

·       Your Obligation Is Bigger Than Yourself – Will believes in using his privileged position to give back, not just to his family but also to his community. True legacy, he shares, is built through positively impacting others, not just personal accomplishments.

·       Success Requires Action, Not Just Passion – Will didn’t wait for the “perfect passion” to strike. He took action, learned hands-on, and found his true calling by doing rather than waiting, encouraging us all to be doers, not just dreamers.

·       Healthy Arrogance Fuels Achievement – Confidence is a muscle. Will’s mantra, “Who better than you?” challenges us to own our unique value, walk in rooms knowing we belong, and see self-belief as a tool for leadership—not toxic arrogance, but the healthy kind that brings everyone up.

 

 Sound Bites:

"I didn’t wait for my passion to hit me in the face. Too many of us do that now. I went and did something I did well—and found my passion within it."

"Success is a bottom line business. At the end of the day, you’ll be judged by if you delivered or not."

"Healthy arrogance is understanding you can make any room better while bringing everyone up—not tearing anyone down."

  

Quote by Mick: "Some days I do. Right. Some days I don't. But, like, I make sure that I fulfill the obligation more than I don't fulfill the obligation."
