“Your keynote presentation at our Leadership Forum was the perfect blend of head and heart. It can be so difficult for those in a leadership role to get caught up in numbers and data and to lose sight of the humanity behind the work that they do; you made such a compelling case for not only the benefit, but the necessity, of bringing empathy into one’s work to drive innovation. I was certainly expecting a strong presentation, but I had no idea that it would be so moving as well.”

“Hal was truly spectacular at our Summit – consensus was that he was the highlight of the two days! We learned a great deal from him and have already begun utilizing his suggestions and methods in our daily business practices.”

“Thank you for the keynote and workshop at our Innovation and Leadership Meeting! The feedback is overwhelmingly positive. I knew weeks ago when we decided to engage you that it was going to be great, but that was just my conviction. Now I have the backing of our audience. People really responded to the structure, stories, and practical applicability of what you had to say.”

“We appreciate you taking the time to share your wisdom with our assembled CEOs. Your perspective contributed so much to what we wanted the CEO Summit to accomplish. Hopefully you found the experience as inspiring and memorable as we did. Frankly, we expect our guests to return to their companies with the clear intent to ask a lot of questions!”

“It was such a pleasure having you last week at the Bloomberg CFO Summit. I have to say, everyone I spoke with after the conference (and I mean, every single one), cited your session among the ones that made an impact on them. In a day filled with back-to-back sessions that we hope were informative and wide-ranging in content, your presentation definitely stood out among our attendees –– which they described as thought-provoking, different and just plain fascinating.”

“I was very inspired by your talk. I go to many of these types of things and have found many of them to be kind of overly simplistic and not very inspiring. I was very taken by your ending which brought meaning to the group through a personal story. I think most people are never going to forget the story and will make them want to come to work to make a difference.”

“The Summit certainly had an impact and the innovation tools you provided our senior team have landed extremely well. One tool in particular that seemed to have had a powerful impact is the questioning exercise. I have heard various people from different divisions referring to it and actively using it with their teams which is great.”

“Thank you for your inspiring keynote presentation during Confluence in Berlin. You were our highest-rated speaker and the highlight of the event for a lot of our attendees. You brought strategic insight, humour, and practical advice that I know people will take home and use in their daily lives, as I have been doing.”

“Hal delivered his ‘A’ game. Thoughtfulness, rigor, genuineness, and passion that resonated with our audience of executives. Both his keynote and collaboration session were the right delivery and engagement that got the audience to think and absorb.”
