A Few Excerpts from Post-Event Emails
"Please make sure Tom knows that he did a fantastic job! He really shined during his keynote...had people laughing, thinking, note taking, talking...the lot! It was insightful, funny, and I thought a really important session and piece of this year's program. On a personal level, he was just an absolute pleasure to work with! Not only is he professional and prepared, but gracious. He's calming and flexible...bottom line...I felt like a real smarty for hiring him!!!!!" - Tracee Watts, Corporate Meeting Specialist, FHLBank Topeka
"Thanks again for coming to speak with our Brand Managers at our last college in October. Once again, your mind opening presentation and dynamic delivery style inspired the BMs to think and act differently. One student commented, 'So refreshing to have someone come in with a sense of realism that is energizing and makes you get out of Procter mentality and push the boundaries.' You provided the perfect close to a great week and got them pumped up to take everything they learned this week and do things differently." - Gina Gourley, NA Marketing Capability Manager, Procter & Gamble
