He was exactly the right speed for the audience. A good mix of down to earth and sophistication. Related himself well to the audience.The feedback I had was that he was the best speaker most had seen.
Paul was fantastic….I really mean that…..he was fantastic. Would recommend him to anyone. I have received emails from clients raving about how great he was and thanking us for inviting them. He definitely opened my eyes to a few things. Thanks.
“Both the retailers and the Lend Lease group found your speech fascinating, not just from a business point of view but also a personal point of view”.
“Paul projects a wonderful relaxed and friendly style. He is a pleasure to listen and work with. His sense of humour is very amusing - his presentation very down to earth”.
This is the second time that I have booked Paul Clitheroe.Paul spoke to a different audience and received a different briefing on each occasion. At both conferences I received brilliant feedback from all participants , those in the audience and those presenting/organizing. Each time he really hit the spot for the style of audience.
