He is prepared, he is committed, he is kind, and he is changing the world one talk at a time.

  • Neil!  Your outstanding presentation struck a real chord here in London, Ontario with our 2024 Breakfast of Champions audience! You are a masterful storyteller, gifted presenter, and brought such energy and passion to our event that made it a standout morning in its 17-year history.

    Your messages around happiness and its critical link to mental wellness resonated with everyone in the audience. You presented “sticky”, memorable tips, augmented with real life experiences that made you a speaker with whom everyone in our large room could connect.

    Throughout the room this morning, I heard it said multiple times, “best speaker yet”. Thank you so much for all you did to honour our sponsors, and our audience, and for your messages that hit home for such a broad audience and will for a long time to come.

On a scale from 1 -5, 92% of employees ranked the presentation as a 5 (excellent) and 8% ranked it as a 4 (very good). 82% of employees responded they felt very confident they could implement at least one of the strategies shared by Neil.
