Andrew is a great speaker and a real professional. His ability to convey high-value leadership insights to both a larger audience and a smaller boardroom was what we needed. He showed an ability to think on his feet and adapt the discussion to the needs of the people in the room. We were really pleased to have had him deliver the opening keynote at our event.
