Official Feedback from In-Person & Virtual Events
Feedback from In-Person Events:
"Marlo is by far the best speaker we have had during our 7-year programme. He is engaging, transparent, and a wealth of information. When he speaks, it feels like he is speaking to each and every person in the room directly. I have had him speak to groups as small as 15 and as large as 200 and every time they come away beaming and ready to take on new challenges."
"We have had speakers who were Harvard Business lecturers, TEDx presenters, podcast hosts, and leadership coaches, to name a few. The speaker who has achieved the highest marks from our post-summit surveys is Marlo Clarke."
"Marlo, through his advice and perspective, has proven to be an invaluable resource to me both professionally and personally. He is a thoughƞul listener, he asks timely, probing questions, and when he offers a response, he does so with an authenticity I find to be rare."
"As soon as he started talking, I felt like Marlo was talking directly to me. This wasn’t just another motivational speech that left me with excitement and energy, but no way of knowing how to put these feelings to use. I actually got tangible advice that I applied to my life, and still use to this day."
"Marlo was instead a poet-philosopher and offered clarity of vision, purpose, authenticity, and problem-solving strategies. I see myself and my place, people, and some with more clarity and resonance for having been a witness to Marlo’s presentation."
"As an organiser, I was excited to have Marlo on our team, and as an attendee, I left his session feeling inspired and engaged in our collective mission. I highly recommend Marlo as an inspirational, humorous, and knowledgeable speaker to your organisation or agency."
