Kevin’s keynote speech at our President’s Club was phenomenal! Hearing his personal story was particularly moving, as his relatability made us laugh, cry, and then laugh again. Each of our teammates walked away knowing the importance of being remembered as someone who shaped others, which certainly helps us as a people-first company.

Thank you so much, Kevin! You knocked it out of the park. We were blown away by how you customized it to our group and made it personal for them. I know it must be so hard for you to not have the feedback of a live audience, but rest assured there was a well-deserved standing ovation!

“It was terrific! The themes were carried through the rest of the meeting with several speakers referring back to your message, especially Aunt Bea and the apple pancakes. Thanks so much for being a part of this with us and for incorporating the elements of our discussion into your message.”
