“I just want to say that your presentation was easily my favorite from Fiserv conference. Not only did I learn a lot about engaging the customer but honestly I learned some presentation skills that I plan to “borrow” myself”
“You were terrific and very effective in straightforwardly framing the challenges and opportunities the industry faces. I could hardly get through the crowd of enthusiastic attendees who expressed their appreciation for your remarks and excitement about how to attack the issues. As far as I’m concerned, it doesn’t get better than that.”
