Anthony “AB” Bourke

“Interactive presentations are the top educational events and AB’s was one of the best I have seen – a “10” definitely! His experience as a fighter pilot and the ability to transfer the same skills to leaders is fantastic! They came away understanding the importance of making the right split second decisions as a leader and the resulting impact on their teams. Chapters should sign AB up now for an exciting and dynamic flight lesson!”

“Once again, please accept my thanks for participating in the ADT National Account Sales Kickoff Meeting. As you know we tend to be a high energy group and it’s not often a speaker or a program really lights a fire under us but you did just that last week in Las Vegas. Your high energy, fact filled program resonated in a very positive way with the ADT National Account sales organization.”

“Thanks again for all of your great work this past week.  I have gotten nothing but incredible positive feedback – you made quite an impression!  I can also tell you that people referred to your presentation throughout the remainder of the sessions, and people are starting to adapt the briefing and de-briefing mentality.”

“Thank you for your work over the last several months. Finally seeing your session come to fruition was terrific. The early anecdotal feedback is very positive, as is the feedback for the overall meeting. So, my immediate reaction is SUCCESS!”

“Thank you for putting together such a relevant and targeted presentation for our Executive Council planning session. Your mission pre-planning and professionalism certainly contributed to the flawless execution and high audience engagement.”

“AB, we have contracted many consultants and dynamic presenters over the years, but let me say, your work, with the “mission objective” assigned, was the best I’ve ever personally experienced. While I could go on and an, let me close by simply saying “great job,” and we are looking forward to pursuing some additional special project work with you shortly, in some of our more challenging markets.”

“You had every one of our 300 operators on their feet at the end of your presentation which is a testament to you and your subject matter. We look forward to having you back again in the future.”

“I was blown away by the excellent presentation. As we are combing through the evaluations, I am not alone in saying that the experience was awesome.”

“You were a huge hit at OPCON! Very applicable and timely. I had countless people come up to me throughout the day Wednesday and compliment on your presentation. It was really fantastic.”

“Most noticeable for the audience was the professional care and attention to detail that you put into the front end planning for the presentations and the customization to reflect our business focus and needs.”

“Thanks again for providing a World Class Speech at our Annual Conference. Your message was a perfect fit for our group and our theme. Most importantly the term ‘Debrief’ is the new buzzword at Russell as we continue to ‘Come Together’ and focus on always doing the right thing for our clients, our associates and our investors.”

I wanted to write you to let you know how pleased we were with your participation at our 26th Annual Conference.  First, your programs were the #1-ranked item on our post-conference surveys. Our franchises noted that you gave them real, street-level tools that they can implement immediately. Specifically, your information on debriefing was a real hit that will have immediate impact on their businesses.  Your breakout session on decluttering sent these guys home focused on the real, needle-moving activities that have a true impact on their company. I truly look forward to working with you again.  Thank you again for THE BEST KEYNOTE WE’VE HAD IN OUR HISTORY.

Truly, I enjoyed your presentation.  I might even say you are my favorite keynote speaker to date, maybe it’s the military thing, but you certainly had my attention the whole time.  Not to mention you seem to be a pretty down to earth guy…I’ve recapped your presentation about 5 times today to my staff, again you are one of my favorites!  I appreciate you addressing our industry and thank for your time.  Cheers my friend!

Thank you so much for your time today. Sharing your story with our team and motivating everyone is….well, your current career choice because you’re amazing at it. Thank you for being so genuine today. I have launched a survey to the attendees from your keynote and so far, all 5 star ratings! Once we get a higher completion rate, I’ll happily share all comments with you. Travel safely and we will be in touch shortly.

First of all, I would like to let you know how much we enjoyed your presentation.  As you can imagine, we have seen many presentations over the years. We are to the point now that we often focus on the mechanics of the presentation rather than the meat. Yours was a far different experience for us.  Your keynote was both interesting and captivating.  It also engaged the audience which we well now is not easy to do. The presentation was great, the walk in slides with music was a perfect touch to set the stage for your keynote.
