I sat through Alexander’s presentation and I must say it was truly awesome. He communicated the message of innovation very clearly. I also found it very impressive – and he did it extremely well — that he localized his presentation for India which was absolutely great, and he really connected with the audience. I really appreciate it. Thank you!

He did a great job of bringing in examples from all over the world. Highly energetic. He got engaged, got into the audience, not just a static speech with Powerpoint slides. Highly recommended!

We are here at our annual conference, and we invited Alexander as our first external presenter ever. To bring innovation ideas and examples from other industries into our internal dialogue and how to apply them to the agricultural arena. I think the presentation was great. We were able to touch all the levels of employees from the commerce to development, from the manager to the field person.
