I learnt a great deal out of the two days especially from Bruce’s stories. I walked around and talked to over 40 team members 4-5pm today. Feeling 10 feet tall and that’s actually one of the most enjoyable part of my career with ANZ to date.

Heard Lisa speak and to say it resonated was an understatement! Love your thinking and approach Lisa – thanks for sharing!

An excellent handbook that reminds us of the distinction between management and leadership. The former is about sweat; the latter is more about vision, strategy and inspiration. Cotterill laces his prose with memorable aphorisms and intelligent reflections.  A very good read for reflective executives and eager students.

It’s not often that you get a speaker who connects with everyone in the audience from 25 to 65 years old and ranging from small business owners to senior corporate managers. If this is what you are after, Bruce is your man. Ranging from leadership to management, managing millennials and sharing entertaining and thought provoking anecdotes Bruce nailed it. If you haven’t yet had Bruce as a keynote speaker you have a treat in store.

As I mentioned to you when we spoke at conference, I found you to be very inspirational. I have implemented many of your principles back in my store and had great success. Every staff member is working towards the same goal, and we have a quick meeting every morning to reinstate the day’s objectives. As managers we know that simplicity is the key to running an effective business but we tend to over complicate things and end up getting confused about our focus, not to mention staff getting confused as well. Listening to you speak, it made me remember why keeping it simple is so important and reinstating that daily with your principles has been an enormous help to me since conference.

I know for sure – if I can use all of Bruce’s advice I will have a team that strives every day, loves working for our company, has job satisfaction, understood what they need to do, were the culture they wanted to be, knew that I cared, and had a boss that was not afraid to break the mould for them!

Amazing, 90 minutes of informative, inspirational, engaging and very practical presentation … your stories are certainly excellent teaching tools.

For over three decades I have observed Bruce transition from successful office solutions salesperson to inspiring Stanford Business School trained CEO, Director and Chairman.  In “The Best Leaders Don’t Shout” he now shares the lessons, insights and ideas, from his remarkable leadership journey.  I thoroughly recommend this book as compelling reading for any leader of business and people.

Your stories about needing to increase output by 20% every year and people never being satisfied with just what they received last time really resonated with me and we should never forget those. Thanks very much for helping to make it a memorable day.
