First, I want to thank you for another wonderful presentation. Every time I hear you speak I walk away with so much. Here is my feedback John. -Helpful information framed within relevant contexts with concrete examples. Delivering information is one thing but the stories provide context highlighting real challenges, pitfalls to avoid, and concrete advice from key lessons learned. -Your presentations are grounded in quantitative research and qualitative observations from the important action research you have been conducting for years. -You deliver information in a clear, concise and pragmatic manner. -Your presentation is polished and your communication style is honest and transparent. -A great speaker knows their audience. Your ability to filter the information for your audience is brilliant.
