Testimonials

I have seen a lot of speakers and sat through a lot of breakout sessions. Justin Cohen is one of the most informative, entertaining and inspiring that I’ve seen. He is the key reason that this year’s annual convention was rated our best to date and the evaluations certainly reflect that. I would highly recommend him to anyone, anywhere.

4) How do I know it’s not just going to be another ‘Rah-Rah’ session that keeps them motivated for about as long as the applause?

5) Some of our staff, particularly in senior management are a little sceptical of motivational speakers.

Vanessa Siegel, EVENT MANAGER

Fatima Da Silva, MD, M& M QUALITY CHOICE, BIDVEST

6) Over the years we’ve heard many speakers, is Justin going to be any different?

“I was looking for a different kind of message. I didn’t want a boring old motivational speech.

I also wanted them to leave the presentation feeling motivated and refreshed. Justin’s presentation was exactly what I was looking for.”

7) Justin may have had success in other companies, but what if I bring him into my organization and we don’t get the value we expect?
Justin believes we should only get paid on delivery. So he offers a MONEY-BACK GUARENTEE: If your people don’t give him an A-rating, you don’t pay.
8) How do I know which of his presentations or workshops to book?
Before you book Justin, the two of you will have a discussion to ascertain your needs and expectations. He will then make a recommendation on which content will best meet your objectives. In the mean time check out an overview of his various programs.
