Mike Reynolds, Managing Director
"Our audience was tired of hearing about tech, and Ben’s messages about leadership through telling his story were really meaningful to the audience. There was also a group of rugby followers that were star struck and wanted pictures and autographs. If I had known he is on the Fijian currency, I would have acquired some and had him sign it!"
David Sjolander, Chief Operating Officer
"Ben gave a brilliant speech; he achieved complete audience buy-in and absolutely delivered on the message we were trying to convey to our business. Highlights that stood out in particular were his wholehearted commitment to the team, strength of morals and unwavering belief in his standards. This is something we can all learn from and deliver into our business going forward on a daily basis."

Jamie Levchuk, Managing Director

Paul McKinlay, Vice President
"Ben was excellent and a great fit for our group and event. He was obviously well prepared and took into account our brief for the event. Only positive feedback from the group as a whole!"
