I want to compliment you on your presentation style. You have an engaging, fast moving, and fun style. You held everyone's interest throughout the 3 hour presentation. There is an ease to your presentation style that invites questions and promotes interaction.

I want to thank you for your presentation of “You’re NOT The Person I Hired” to our management team. The feedback for the team has been excellent. They were engaged with our presentation style, you answered their questions honestly and most important of all they learned a lot about the right way to hire. We have implemented the concepts from your presentation and have noticed a significant improvement in our interviewing and hiring standards. We are actively implementing your ideas on attracting top talent and are seeing the pay-off with the caliber of candidates we are attracting.
There was great concern from the team regarding the need for this, it is clear from the feedback and the results we have received the time was well spent.

Board Of Directors

Harvard Business School Association of Orange County

There was a great, positive energy created by Brad’s approach to the topic; pulling in audience participation and real-life examples of do’s and don’ts. He is clearly an expert at engaging an audience and making his subject matter meaningful to his audience in a very practical, real-world way. Brad also responded extremely well to the Q&A segment of our program, which, due to the nature of our group requires extraordinarily good listening and “think on your feet” skills.

I have had the pleasure of participating in numerous programs over the last 10 years where Brad was either the primary speaker or the emcee. He has always had a special knack for connecting with his audience, whether it is large or small.
