Mr. Hickman provided leadership training to my FEMA Emergency Response detachment here in the Seattle area and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive from an audience of seasoned emergency managers and military veterans, to include comments like, “Awesome,the best leadership course I ever taken.” And “Bill gave me an entirely new perspective on leadership and management, sometimes I can immediately use with my team!” Bill is an enthusiastic instructor and coach who know how to hold an audience, and deliver the good. He has my recommendation.
Lee Champagne, Emergency Respose Chief, FEMA
Your talk was bold, entertaining, factual, hard hitting, and a wake-up call to many in the audience. The timing was perfect and you connected with everyone in the audience.
Roger Blackstock, Parkway Business Association, Atlanta, GA
Bill Hickman is the “REAL DEAL”, not just a person who talks the talk. Bill shares real world experience with his audience that comes from the heart and soul of networking. If you have a desire to learn effective networking technique, Bill is about as close to perfection that you can get.”
Jeff Glaze – www.atlantaevent.com, America’s #1 Networking Web Site
Bill took the time to tailor his seminar to our company’s needs. He spent a significant amount of time understanding our culture and matched it with the opportunities that we had as a leadership group. The seminar had a smooth flow to it making it exactly what we needed. The audience was fully engaged throughout the course. Couple that with Bill’s special way of delivering his message and we had a winner!
The leadership group had nothing but rave reviews. We use Bill’s techniques in our daily work lives. Even better, the tools that Bill provided extend beyond the workplace. They can be effective in relating to others in your personal life! Thanks for your energy Bill!
Mike Boyzuick RVP Southwest Region, Brinks, Inc
When I first heard Bill deliver his message on networking, it was to a marketing professional group. Just as the presentation began I heard one experienced marketer say, “We are all experts on networking, what can this guy possibly teach us?” Well, five minutes into Bill’s presentation we were all scrambling to get out pens and paper to take notes! This is the finest presentation on networking I’ve ever heard!
David Stedman, CEO, The Alliance, Houston, Texas
Bill is a dynamic, engaging, and passionate speaker!! You won’t be disappointed…His speaking and presentation skills are outstanding, and his ability to connect to an audience is art in the making. Bill does a wonderful job of balancing a commanding presence with seeking to understand his audience. He is a master at creating an experiential environment for my students, where all their senses are aroused and where learning truly is fun.
Bill’s preparation is constant and impressive. You can always count on him to conduct his due diligence, to probe, to look for the nuances that many others will miss. He is detailed, conscientious, and perseverant, which is exactly what you’d want in a speaker.
Net-Net…..Bill knows his audience, he’s passionate, and he connects. I highly recommend him for any public speaking engagement you may have.
David Spear, Goizueta Business School Emory University
I asked Bill to speak on Networking at one of our major events for senior executives and he showed just how good he truly was. He explained Networking in such common sense terms that he held the audience’s complete attention the whole time. It was a masterful performance.
Bruce McCullough, CEO, IT Management Partners
Bill Hickman is an incredibly talented individual who can fill a variety of roles. An astute coach and advisor, a master facilitator, a visionary of organizational structure, and an experienced process engineer, Bill can help establish meaningful corporate governance systems that ensure you get the most out of every part of the company.
Rob Hogan, Senior Vice President, Equifax, Inc. Atlanta, GA
We did not have the executive bandwidth to drive the creation of our prior case studies. Bill did a great job of crystallizing our priorities, focus, and content…he really helped us see through the haze.
Greg Comrie, SVP Delivery Solutions, AGSI
Here is what Bill’s Coaching clients have to say:
Working with Bill I was able to get the job I have been seeking for years! The one I really wanted but didn’t know how to get. Without Bill I would still be sitting at my desk, miserable and frustrated, wondering what in the world I was going to do with the remainder of my career…Bill gave me the confidence to go out and get the job I really wanted.
Peggy Crawford, Managing Consultant
As a burned out, depressed software salesman in my third miserable job, I was only looking for a way out. Overcoming stubborn pride, I finally decided to get some coaching…After a few sessions with Bill I had a different attitude about myself, my profession, and my industry.
Mike Darrish, Regional Manager
Thanks for the kick in the pants…You’re a great coach and have made a huge difference in what could have been several months of severe worry and crisis.
Marcus Skeel, Senior Project Manager
Bill has personally coached and advised me at times that absolutely made a difference in my ability to see the true alternatives before me and make the best decisions and choices.
Rob Hogan Senior Vice President, Equifax, Inc
Bill is literally responsible for tripling my hourly rate. As a new entrepreneur I was unsure of my talents and my worth. Bill encouraged me to broaden my thinking, narrow my niche and test the demands of the local market to earn fully what I deserved. With his guidance and support, my career has been significantly more profitable.
Charlie Waters, President, Professional Services Inc.
