Johnny, thank you again for being the keynote speaker at our National Sales Meeting in Atlanta. You were a true hit! You were referenced multiple times on the main stage by presenters throughout the remainder of the event, and many folks I talked to shared how impactful your presentation and lessons were to them. Awesome to hear! I sincerely appreciate how you took the time to carefully weave in several of my key messages throughout your presentation. It really helped reinforce the points I was landing throughout the week.

Derek Miller, Chief Sales Officer, Serta Simmons Bedding

I hired Johnny to speak at our most recent Annual Sales Conference. His preparation, energy and attention to the overall goals of the presentation were spot on! Johnny is a true survivor and competitor and had a wonderful story of perseverance and passion. The fact that he has worked do hard to become a U.S. Olympian and chase his dream resents across his speech. I would highly recommend hiring Johnny to help motivate and inspire your company staff, teams or departments.

In search of a unique keynote presentation for our company's national leadership meeting, our planning committee identified Johnny Quinn as a speaker who would deliver his message in a dynamic and memorable way. From the moment Johnny took the stage, it was clear to all that whatever expectations we had were about to be dramatically exceeded! Johnny weaves multiple life lessons into a compelling personal narrative. Laced with both dramatic examples and humor, he created an experience that all attendees agreed was the highlight our three day program. I highly recommend Johnny as a speaker to any group looking to motivate and inspire their audience. Regardless of your industry or subject matter it is clear Johnny is able to tailor his presentation to meet your needs. His customized message was truly beneficial to our meeting objectives and we look forward to working with him again in the future.

Hal Price, SVP Strategic Partnerships, Golden Living

Johnny spoke at our annual leadership meeting this year and was a wonderful addition to our schedule. This was the first year we invited keynote presentation from outside our industry to speak at our conference so we were unsure how it would be received, but Johnny was the perfect speaker to motivate and inspire our leaders. Johnny's message of resiliency and adapting to change was a perfect complement to our program. Johnny was easy to work with and very accommodating to our last minute schedule changes, I would highly recommend Johnny to anyone looking for a keynote or guest speaker and have no doubt that he will be able to tailor his message for any audience just the way he did for us. Many thanks Johnny!

Martha Schram, President, Aegis Therapies

Thank you so much for inspiring all of us at the Government Contract Management Symposium in Bethesda, MD! As I listened to your talk, I walked away with a renewed sense of resilience. I learned that no matter how bad things may seem in the moment; the moment passes and there is something even better that we were meant to do! Living through the uneasiness of life, truly makes you a stronger and more able to take whatever life sends your way. Our attendees loved your content and the opportunity to connect with you afterwards! Please include me as a reference in the future. I am delighted to tell the world how wonderful you are!

Michelle Currier, Chief Learning Officer, National Contract Management Association

I dislike sports, so I was concerned I would not relate to the content. I was pleasantly surprised by the presentation and received a lot of value from it. He kept my attention the entire time.

PMI Virtual Attendee #1

This was a great session. As a person who rarely connects with sports analogies and stories, I was locked in on this presentation. This was such a good message. All of it. It was a message I wouldn't have thought I needed to hear but I couldn't take notes fast enough.

I have severe ADHD and these presentation days are hard for me. Johnny Quinn just kept my attention the entire time. This was an amazing presentation! Don't change a thing!
