"Mike – what an absolute gent, he was in constant contact me when he get there, letting me know he’s arrived and where to find him at the BBQ, which was much appreciated. He joined in some of Thursday’s sessions, which he then bought seamlessly into his talk, adding in ‘as I know you’ve been talking about xx’ which was so good and you don’t often find in a keynote. His speech was thought provoking and well delivered, quite a few people asked for selfies with him afterwards so I take that as a good sign."
