"It is unusual for a presenter to be able to maintain the interest of an audience for more than one major presentation.
Not Jason! He has presented at four of Narta's conferences, and the audience are always amazed at the wisdom of his teachings and totally professional delivery.
He has influenced greatly the thinking and success of many of our retailers.
In my personal business career Jason has been without question the single biggest influence on my management style and business principals.
We look forward to using him again in the future.

I have always strived to improve myself and my company, but you gave me 5 very specific areas that will help me focus on being a better leader.

"Jason Jennings hit a "home run"! His engaging speech on the "five leadership secrets of the world's fastest growing and productive companies" was a huge hit with all the leadership teams in our Asian subsidiaries.
The feedback from our diverse participants was unanimously positive. Jason's research and first-hand experiences with the successful companies referenced in your books brought tremendous credibility to his key messages. It's often difficult to turn "theory" into "practice", but Jason made that leap easy with his adroitly sprinkled real-world examples. The acid test has been that we frequently hear people cite what they heard and internalized during Jason's

I appreciate Jason taking the time to research our company and to customize part of your talk to Heartland.
The parts of your talk that I loved the most were about mission statements (I have fought almost every new hire to NOT take the time to do this – and we don’t have one!); vision (employees are always reminded not to use that word and my name in the same sentence); authenticity (the highest honor I have ever received is to be thought authentic); and stewardship. Jason, my friend, nailed it. I am with you on 98% of what you said and have never heard as penetrating an analysis of success in life as I heard from you last Tuesday. No one learned more from your talk than I did."

I was interested in doing this because I believe his research identifies some powerful insights on what it takes to have top tier sustainable growth. Jason was interested in doing it because he thought it would a fun change for him to have more intimate interaction with a smaller group.
The net result was a home run!
I believe he added strategic value to our planning session-- but did it in a way that was inspiring and entertaining to our team.

Not only did Jason exceed my expectations but everyone in the room was overwhelmed with his presentation! He was fabulous, his timing, choice of words, rapid fire illustrations and examples, coupled with the message was the best. He is excellent and should continue to "walk his talk" of doing only 80 presentations a year and raise his price.
Jason Jennings will be back in front of PSTC in the coming years!
Now, we need to find Jason Jennings #2 for 2007 in Charleston SC!"

Event: Center for Family Business, University of Toledo
Date: February 6, 2007
"All of Toledo was "buzzing" after the superb presentation by Jason Jennings. Not only was the content of his talk relevant and inspiring, Jason’s manner and style is refreshing and compelling. One of the best business speakers around, his passion comes through and no one walks away unchanged.
It was a pleasure to work with him and his associates as he understood and respected his audience. Jason is a "must have" speaker for any group that wants to make a lasting impact on their membership."
