“‘… great presentation ... made me want to push myself much harder, in every aspect of my life, to achieve the goals I have set.’ With only exceptional feedback like that, I hope you’ll make many more of those presentations. Thanks again for sharing.”
—Claude Carrier, Co-Owner, Bos
“… inspiring and truly remarkable. A great source of motivation.”
—Jean Noelting, CEO, RoyCap
“People were inspired by not only what you did but what it took to do it. Several came up to me later with thoughts and ideas of things that they have put off in the past and now are going out and ‘doing it.’ I try my best to inspire the staff and keep the morale positive. Certainly last year was not an easy task, but this presentation was great and it certainly worked.”
—Anita Dong, President, McDonnell Haynes
“Gobi Runner is a fascinating experience – on both a personal and physical level. The scope of the race’s physical and emotional demands on the participant is enormous. What has been more interesting has been the learning that Stéfan shares. He has created an interactive presentation that highlights the individual and corporate challenges that many of us face in the business world. He has developed a powerful hands-on list of easy-to-understand life-lessons that are applicable to both an entrepreneur and a Fortune 500 CEO. Having experienced it, both at the board level and for staff team-building exercises, I’ve seen how each time the participants have expressed that the content and his personal message have impacted them and motivated them to look for new ways to rethink their personal goals in life.”
—Mike Fenton, Director Principal Gifts, West Park Healthcare Centre Foundation, Past President & CEO, NABS Canada
