“After your
keynote, almost everyone crowded into your
breakout session, so we had to move you to a
bigger room - and still had to bring in extra
chairs. You were a huge success!”
"Mariah, I attended the GSA New Associate Celebration last week and you were our luncheon speaker. YOU WERE GREAT!! I found your words and candidness both refreshing and uplifting." -- Carolyn Presley-Doss, Auditor, GSA "Your role as our
closing keynote turned out to be the Slam Dunk of
our conference. You absolutely made the impace we
were looking for in our closing session. You
helped our teachers start setting goals, and I
commend you on your professionalism. I have
rarely worked with such an eager and enjoyable
person. Those of us lucky enough to work closely
with you saw a model we could aspire to. The
response to your presentation was astounding,
with 95% of the attendees rating the program as
excellent! Teachers told me, "Where did you
find her? She was fabulous! She was the best
speaker I have heard at a conference! You really
do stand "head and shoulders" above the
rest, no pun intended!" "You were such a joy
to work with! You arrived early, joined
us for lunch, and chatted with many of the
participants before and after your program. You
interviewed some of our financial consultants
before the program and integrated their quotes
and comments into your remarks. And as you could
tell from the laughter and applause,
your light-hearted Merrill Lynch poem was also a
big hit!" "You're the only speaker who's ever followed up after a speech. Most of them, you never hear from again. That says a lot about you right there." "You have a great
depthof experience in all aspects of leadership,
team playing, and sports so you helped us think
outside of the box. Everyone also said how nice
you were and easy to talk with. Thank you so much
for a very special evening." The feedback I received
at the conference was nothing but positive.
A couple of folks
said you were the best keynote speaker
they'd heard at one
of our conferences "Over the last several
years, I have had the opportunity to hear a
number of speakers and I would rate your words of
wisdom, your style, and your overall presentation
as one of the most impressive I have attended. As usual, your fantastic presentation was
the highlight of the day. I had a number of
attendees stop and tell me how much they
appreciated your remarks." "The
very high standard you set will make it difficult
for others to match." "The volunteers keep raving about what a great evening it was. I've heard nothing but positive feedback." -- Norma Collins, AARP-MO "Your keynote speech was
inspiring. You urged us to see the unique person
in all our students. Your sense of humor about
being tall gave us all an opportunity to reflect
on how we deal with difference in our lives.
Finally, your willingness to share your
experiences as a female athlete motivated all of
us to support our young people in whatever
endeavor they choose."
"What a warm, smart
person. Of all the speakers, I took what she had
to say most personally to heart." “An overwhelming success.”
"Thank goodness
Mariah Burton Nelson has the guts
and clear-sightedness
to challenge our assumptions." “You wowed
the crowd. We've gotten terrific
feedback on the event.” "What a wonderful
presentation at Women in Technology. You have set
a new standard for successful programs." “I truly appreciate
the candor and humor
with which you shared your experiences and
observations. You were incredibly helpful and
went above and beyond the call of duty.” "Mariah Burton
Nelson worked the audience like a stand-up
comedian." " I thank you for
your wonderful presentation,
'The Courage to Lead from the Heart.' I received
many glowing comments from others, to which I add
my own. It was a pleasure to have you in our
midst. Your willingness to be at our socials and
to visit with many of our members clearly was
appreciated and contributed to the success of the
convention." "The feedback from
your keynote has been exceptional. We found your
ability to relate intimately with a group of 400
to be nothing short of extraordinary." "My sincerest
thanks for your excellent and highly motivating
presentation, 'Goal Setting for Success.' The
feedback we've received shows that your
presentation evoked enthusiasm, clarity, and new
energy for goal setting." “To say that you were a
sterling speaker would be an understatement. The
audience adored you. The way you kicked off the
conference made me look good as the
coordinator!” To contact Mariah about her presentations, call 703/276-8323 or write to her at Mariah@MariahBurtonNelson.com Home ©
