We set the same three goals for each client event: 1) Help clients find and book the perfect speaker/athlete/celebrity for their event 2) Make step 1 easy, fast, and cost-effective 3) Apply our domain knowledge and relationships to create client value Nothing makes us happier than receiving feedback that our client experienced success in all three areas! We're excited to share some feedback from Zippo Manufacturing Company, with whom we partnered earlier this year, to book a speaker for an internal event. Zippo ended up booking Simon Anderson, of whom they said: "Simon Anderson perfectly met our expectations. As a futurist, he was able to inspire our team to look past the immediate future to align our global strategies. Simon's expertise and international experience worked well with our diverse leadership team. We look forward to growing beyond our strategic objectives and employing the five action steps he advised us on." Thanks, Simon, for partnering with us to deliver an exceptional client experience! #EventPlanning #FuturistSpeaker #TalentBooking

What's the business case for mental health? Johnny Crowder, CRPS 🧠, says on Engage Presents that while professional skill development is a deservedly crucial component of corporate meetings, "without the personal skills, all the professional skills in the world will fall flat." A suicide and abuse survivor, Johnny spent more than ten years battling his mental health demons before founding Cope Notes®, a text-based mental health platform that provides daily encouragement to users in over 100 countries. In addition, Johnny is a member of a Billboard-charting heavy metal band and an in-demand speaker on mental health. "I give people practical, actionable tips they can employ that I can virtually guarantee will affect the culture... because culture is just a bunch of people interacting with each other. There is nothing that warms or cools a culture quite like mental health, since a culture is so dependent on interpersonal interaction." The interview is a must-watch for any event planner seeking a unique yet proven speaker on mental health.

Thank you, Johnny, for joining us on Engage Presents, and thank you, Randy Ehman, for partnering with Engage to bring Johnny's expertise to our clients! #MentalHealth #CorporateEvents #MeetingPlanners

Lee Rubin is our guest this week on Engage Presents. Before he was a keynote speaker sought-after by organizations like CIti, MassMutual, and SHRM, he was the captain of Penn State's Football Team and then a corporate human resources professional. These experiences shaped his perspective on team building and peak performance, which he now shares in high-energy, content-rich keynotes. A recent Engage client who booked Lee for their flagship annual event said "Lee was BETTER than I expected. And, I had already high expectations set by Lee himself. He was a pleasure to work with during the sales process with Engage, through planning and promotion, a rock star the day of, and even diligent in follow-up post-event. Lee is everything you'd want in a speaker. Authentic and experienced in his subject matter. Drives audience engagement like the best of the best. And, a wonderful human being to work with behind the scenes!" In this clip, Lee shares an overview of his "Five Components of Extraordinary Teams."
