Testimonials

‘There are some speakers who can engage and entertain, but impart few if any useable insights.  There are others who can impress with sheer intellect, but send you to sleep just when things should be getting interesting.  Penny Burke is one of those presenters whose grasp of marketing and communications is unsurpassed and better yet has the ability to lead an audience on a journey through detail and nuance that leaves them wanting more.  A confident and engaging communicator who can make you laugh and think at the same time.’

‘Penny thank you so much for making our conference in Shanghai one of the best we’ve had. We had outstanding feedback from our delegates, they found your session inspiring, engaging and funny – but they learned so much too! You really delivered an outstanding session that our members got such great value from – we’ll be booking you for a round Australia roadshow for next year too!

‘Penny has superb skills as a facilitator, which was evident in the workshop she conducted for senior management and in the focus groups she conducted for market research.  She enthused and invigorated the participants and led us in a disciplined and structured process which resulted, somewhat to our collective surprise, in a robust brand essence.’

 ‘Recently I had the pleasure to see Penny present a keynote presentation in front of a 100 people. For someone who presents as a living I was so impressed with Penny. She had great content, she presented it in a really engaging way and she was naturally humorous. I loved Penny's presentation so much I was compelled to purchase her book. Her content is relevant and practical. Thinking of working with Penny - I don't think you will be disappointed - she is a gem.’

‘I'm very intolerant of lightweight, "fluffy" speakers - so I was blown away by Penny's content-rich, entertaining and dynamic keynote presentation. THIS is the sort of stuff that makes attending conferences worth the time, effort and energy’.
