Testimonials
"I have sat through presentations with speakers who were nervous. Benoit is smooth and has a nice flow."

Daniel Green
"Through attending this event, I acquired more professional connections and witnessed community-building. I would recommend Benoit as a speaker because he is knowledgeable and detailed, and knows when to keep it moving. His passion comes through as well. The best qualities a speaker can have are a combination of passion and knowledge. To me these seem to be the pillars of successful speakers."
"His exemplary speaking skills draw the attention of the listeners, and he has been able to keep the audience glued to his long speeches on multiple occasions. His unique ability to approach a problem, by breaking it down into little systems, and solving each piece before combining the entire solved puzzle has produced marvelous results during the course."
"You know how boring it is to have to sit through a presentation that is not inspiring and not relatable? Benoît offers the opposite: he grabs attention of the audience and speaks very well. He shares lots of his knowledge and experiences which makes you want to pay close attention. The way he uses props –like whiteboards– to illustrate concepts is awesome."
"When we feel like we don't really know others in the groups or teams in which we find ourselves, we can sometimes find group activities to be uncomfortable. After the event, I felt closer to everyone in there–a bond was created. The event space was very welcoming and comfortable. I got to bond with some really cool people, became more comfortable with the everyone, and gained confidence in myself through the activities. Benoit is good at talking and connecting with people and his confidence is contagious. I would definitely recommend him as a speaker."

Gabriel Bueno
"Meeting and connecting openly with new people, or attending an unfamiliar event, can sometimes feel uncomfortable. During this particular experience, I found the atmosphere warm, comfortable and intimate. Accompanied by Benoit's gentle facilitation and the openness of the group, I felt loved, adored, and "seen". I also experienced an awareness of what connection and deep value feels like, and a sense of increased confidence and increased connection. In our world loneliness is deeply harmful, thankfully people like Benoît are creating space for us to combat this."
"If I don't know who is giving a talk, I am not always sure I will want to attend. Benoit's enthusiasm and clear communication helped me better understand how to communicate to my market. He helped me understand new concepts of communication optimization and the importance of key performance indicators. His enthusiasm is quite contagious."
"Powerful–NOT boring. Benoit has the capability of inspring interest in others with his way of speaking. I gained insights on how to improve the way I present myself and communicate."
