“I've had the pleasure to meet Steve in 2006 in Berlin and was blown away by his professional way of working. Never have I entered a stage more relaxed than with Steve, thanks to his thorough preparation. Detailed scripts, clear expectations and good agreements make great conferences & events! After four years, with many assignments together, I look forward to each event he organizes. And he still surprises me with his creative solutions. If you want your event or convention planned and executed with perfection, I surely recommend Steve!”

Dear Steve,

 

Just a quick note to once more congratulate you on a great conference.  You are a true professional, and a great guy.  You keep your head cool when things get tough, and you're willing to be tough when it's needed.  It's not often in this world that I get to work with people as good as you.  I'm indebted to Patrick for bringing us together.

 

I had the "pleasure" of being stuck at Nice airport this morning for several hours, and so I took the time to read through your book.  Not every page, but most of it, even if diagonally on some topics.  It is very good.  Very complete.  Big picture as well as the details.  Simple to understand. Easy to use.

 

Warm regards,

Dear Steve,

Just a quick message to say that I finally found the time to read your book, over the Easter holiday. It was absolutely excellent – a lot of very original ideas for successful meetings. I will definitely add it to the students’ reading list.

Dear Steve,

I read it during last week. What can I say? Well done Steve, great work!

The book is a panoramic overview of all our business.

It is a great instrument for all meeting planners.

I can imagine that you where very busy during last year, sleepless nights and a lot of coffee but...the result is really very good. The format of the book , the clearness of how you present the different topics and the passion you put in it makes the book really  great!

Dear Steve,

Thank you very much for your energy and professionalism in holding the training programs. It was a success! We got feedback from every participant, and heard the words of gratitude and admire of you. Some people began to practice at once. At the moment I'm preparing the presentation for the public speech and the knowledge you gave to me helps a lot. I hope you you've enjoyed your visit to Ekaterinburg.
