Beyond expectations. Overwhelmed. Outstanding, a pleasure to deal with, a very humble man and very personable with guests, Mark Bouris made the day. My client was over the moon.
Mark was very well received. Comments included: 'Good information on 'global outlook' and disruptive model.' 'Very entertaining and great to hear from such a well-respected leader.' 'This presentation blew me away. Would love the opportunity to hear Mark speak again.' 'Wow, what an inspiration speech!' and 'I really enjoyed Mark's presentation and admire his enthusiasm, honesty and faith in his staff.'
Mark delivered a very inspirational keynote speech with a very topical insight into the current economic state of Australia and the RBA's effects on all Australians. Our guests were very impressed and full of motivation, so much so that when Mark concluded his speech they carried on their own discussions at their tables for the rest of the evening. They all took something away with them that night. Thanks Mark for your appearance and well thought out words of truth and inspiration.
Mark was supposed to speak for an hour including questions but he stayed on for more than 1.5 hours and had the small audience mesmerised and by the end totally energised by his style or presentation and his candid comments about his business history and risks he took. His style was as if he was chatting to a group of good friends - I would highly recommend him to anyone as a speaker.
