MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKERS

What Clients Say About Joe Simpson

"I am writing to heap enormous praise on Joe Simpson for the incredible presentations he gave at our conferences. Joe completely absorbed the briefing and showed true professionalism in relating the story of his disaster in Peru to our Conference theme of 'Success is about Choice not Chance'. He stayed on to answer many questions and mixed with delegates who were bowled over by the incredible nature of the story and the humility of the man"

Hoechst Marian Roussel,

"Joe Simpson flew in from the USA, shrugging off jet lag, he proceeded to captivate our entire sales and service teams, holding them in the palm of their hand and taking them on an emotional roller coaster ride from shock, horror to humour. We were all overawed and inspired by Joe's amazing story. Needless to say we will be beating a path to the bookstore to buy Joe's recently released book, The Beckoning Silence."

Abbott Diagnostics,

"Joe is a very gifted communicator who held our international audience of more than 200, in the palm of his hand, for one hour........I had the onerous task of trying to close the meeting after he had left the podium and confess that I was completely lost for words..... I recommend Joe Simpson very highly indeed. I have heard a lot of sportsmen and motivators speak, making links between their world and the world of business and their words are instantly forgettable. Joe spoke from the heart and stole the show. Everybody was blown away and I'm sure they will remember the occasion for many years to come, as will I"
