Testimonials

"Simon presented at a recent event where the theme was 'collaboration'. He was my keynote speaker and was very professional and effective. Prior to the event, he spent time understanding the organisation I work for, what the subject matter was and how he could integrate that with his experience. His speech was full of enthusiasm and passion for the subject and attendees praised his delivery style."

TRU Alliance

"WOW. We had Simon booked to deliver two keynotes to 60+ VIP clients and guests and he certainly did not disappoint. All our clients are experiencing challenges around team retention and recruitment and therefore Simon was a great fit. "How to hire on character" and "How to build a world class team" gave everybody tremendous insight into how to change good into great. The feedback was fantastic. If you are looking for a speaker to support you and your team, Simon is the man to support you."
