Some Testimonials

“Hi Craig.

You spoke at our Wilsons Leaders conference at Silverwater Resort, VIC in August last year and I thought I would take this opportunity to follow up with some feedback about your session.

To this day I am still receiving examples of where people have used your ideas, thinking and examples and of course lots of general positive feedback from many of the participants. We also ran a post conference survey and of the 50 attendees – 11 thought your session was good and 35 saying it was excellent ( the other 4 did not complete the survey). This meant that you received the best speaker result for the conference and as I mentioned people are still talking about the session.” Kylie Johnston, Chief People Officer, Wilson Group

“Awesome! We loved your quirky delivery style. Just what we needed as a break-out session on what are typically very serious days.”
Mick McNair, Electrolux

“Haven’t laughed so much at a presentation in years! Thanks for the positive impact you had on our staff. We all loved your frankness and honesty!”
Maria Steele, Telstra

“Excellent! Craig was a fantastic speaker who held the audience captive for the length of his presentation.”
Jennifer Soding, Bayside City Council, Australia

“We had our annual conference over the weekend of the 23rd and 24th Feb, 2008 and we had Craig Harper as one of our presenters. He was wonderful, funny and professional, and he got our message through to the staff in a positive and fun way. He was loved by all!”
Ally Memic, IMCD, Australia

“We recognise that we would not receive such positive feedback from delegates without the excellent presentations and stimulating discussions provided by talented individuals, like you. Your time and effort in ensuring the success of the Convention is greatly appreciated.”
James Symond, Mortgage & Finance Assoc of Australia

“Monash Aquatic & Recreation Centre would like to pass on our thanks to Craig for his terrific seminar he held last night. The members thoroughly appreciated his frank look on change and making a go at their fitness goals.It was lovely to arrive this morning to work to find a number of positive feedback forms had been handed into reception already! We were also able to raise $323 for Sids kids for Red Nose Day and we could have not done that without him. We would love to get Craig back in the future and hope he continues on his wonderful journey.” Amanda Watson – Health & Fitness Manager, Monash Aquatic & Recreation Centre

“Craig’s presentation was awesome, very motivating and honest. I haven’t heard such honesty in a long time, very refreshing. I found him very inspiring, motivational & good at identifying then presenting to his audience.”
Jacqui Cook, Matchworks
