I came to Courtney’s session hungry for answers and a sense that I could make a difference and have an impact in the realm of sustainable meetings.  Her blend of stories, facts, ideas, and a roadmap offered me the motivation and information I needed to implement my own sustainable path as a speaker.  Her style is friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable.  Her topic is essential.  I can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t benefit from Courtney’s message and style.

Chris Heeter

When our private community of global sports and esports leaders expressed interest in learning more about innovative sustainability and event management, Courtney emerged as one of the foremost subject matter experts to lead our panel. The discussion was incredibly informative with Courtney answering questions from our members and providing valuable insights from her extensive experience. In the end, our attendees walked away with greater knowledge along with ideas on how to advance their own efforts in making a lasting impact.

Jessie States, CMP, CMM

I have had the idea of Impact, sustainability, and improving our world ever since I started the recycling program in my school in 7th grade. What have I done about it since then? The answer is not enough. It has been on my mind so much lately. So much that I joined my company’s business council and was able to hear our chief social impact officer speak. That got my wheels turning, and then BOOM, I had a session with Courtney and had the privilege of listening to her Keynote at a recent conference. Not only did it stress the importance of this issue to me but inspired me. This inspired me to reach out to my companies Chief Impact Officer to see how I can become more involved and what I can do to make an impact in this space. Courtney is as she claims, engaging, practical, & approachable. She provokes thought on an issue that cannot go unaddressed.

Natalie Ippolito

Brad, a Brown University grad, is a Certified Speaking Professional — the highest earned designation from the National Speakers Association. He is also a member of the Speakers Hall of Fame, an elite group of 150 inductees worldwide.

Brad has captivated audiences across all 50 states and four continents. His clientele boasts
major names like Microsoft, Verizon, the FBI, the CIA, and the IRS (where he cleverly withheld
30% of his best ideas).

His background in entertainment is still very present in all his business presentations. Whether
he’s telling funny stories, sharing his innate and impromptu wit, or blowing audiences minds as a
mentalist - he’s definitely not your standard “talking head” speaker. He’s fresh. He’s funny. He’s
unique.

Keynote Speaker on Encouragement.   (Bonus: Brad is also a comedian mentalist!)

Brad Montgomery

Brad talks about how to strategically improve and implement the power of encouragement in the workplace to increase job satisfaction, performance and purpose. Audiences leave the program feeling valued, significant and knowing that their management cares about them.
Here’s the Key: No matter what business you are in, you’re in the people business. Focus on the people and watch your performance — and your career! — improve.

Call, and we'll talk about how we can customize a program for you!

Interactive keynote

Seeing an entertainer is one thing, but being part of a unique, unrepeatable experience is entirely different. It’s a shared moment that unites the audience, creating a bond that’s both special and fleeting. That’s what I offer—a singular event with a specific group that will never be replicated in the same way.

Because the show heavily involves the audience, it becomes even more extraordinary. It’s spontaneous, customized and very funny.  

It's the opposite of a "canned" show.

Mentalist:  Funny Mind-Reading Entertainment

Brad truly rocked it! Our entire leadership team thoroughly enjoyed Brad's session and gained valuable tools to enhance/bring joy to our work.
 
Just as there is an ongoing need for dedicated healthcare professionals like our team, there will always be a need for individuals like Brad who inspire us, reignite our passion, and remind us of the importance of the work we do. His expertise and enthusiasm have made a lasting impact on all of us.

Scott Wolpin

It’s refreshing to meet a speaker who walk his/her talk. Brad is the epitome of awesomeness. Not only did his inspirational presentation draw rave reviews amongst our staff and faculty, but Brad's follow up personal video was such a nice touch.

Ari is a master of growth through adversity, positive mindset, and resilience. He faces difficult situations head-on using his inner resilience.

Months before COVID, a fire wiped out his family's belongings, and his business (of speaking live in front of audiences) then fell apart in the pandemic. Ari embraced these challenges and the challenges of his youth to become the thought leader he is today.

Ari believes anything is possible – using this power of manifestation to do impossible things, like producing a 2 hour movie in 2 weeks and bringing a frog back to life (ask him about it!). He brings this same unstoppable energy to your stage. His bright smile, flexibility, and easy likability is a great addition to any event.

Taija Ryan

I ask Ari to be part of our Sales Kick-off. I have a small team, less than 10, of seasoned professionals. I wanted a message that was not salesy but would talk to them as a person and how they can better themselves. Ari's message delivered on this. His delivery of his "key" points, mixed with a strong story line, while tying in my 2023 Goals and direction was fabulous. I would recommend Ari for any audience, large or small, young or seasoned, as he will deliver for you.

Mark Sondergaard

Your presentation at our conference was fantastic and we are still talking about it!

It is 100% possible to present educational, thought provoking and motivating material while entertaining your audience.
