Testimonials

I attended your presentation this evening and really enjoyed it, very well articulated with style, humour and audience engagement. I came away invigorated, informed and definitely curious about this field of study. I assumed it was either a principle of lean or a marketing strategy but it was so much more than that

- Emily Mellet, Attendee at Shannon Chamber presentation, GECAS, Co. Clare, 2012

The students adored the interactive style of the presentation, and the topic itself (The Mind of the Consumer) was very insightful and useful for future marketers. I highly recommend John and will definitely invite him back again

- Anu Laukkala, GIHE, Switzerland

John recently delivered an outstanding lecture on the importance of "outside-in" thinking to a group of leading cultural institutions around Merrion Square. His focus on customer-oriented business strategies is invaluable whether you are operating in the private or public sector. He really knows how to capture the idea of "thinking outside the box

- Grainne Millar, Head of Cultural Development

I would highly recommend John. He was clear and concise and I found his material insightful and useful
