PARTNER TESTIMONIALS
Authentic. Engaging. Honest. Practical.
Just some of the words that come to mind after Daron’s talk. Daron delivered an equality, diversity and inclusion talk to AbbVie’s External Affairs and Legal group and inspired us all. His passion and energy were contagious but more than that, he gave us practical tips on how we can use our “sphere of influence” to generate “micro wins” and positive change. He taught us that vulnerability is a strength. And that if we are willing to listen and learn we can be the change we want to see. Can’t recommend Daron enough!
Daron is a wonderful person to invite to your next team meeting or event!
He's engaging and inspiring, and has a gift for sharing his wisdom in a way that's applicable to your team and the work that you do. Our team at Google thoroughly enjoyed having him speak with us, and we'd recommend him to anyone who's looking for a thoughtful motivational speaker!
It was a pleasure to have Daron come speak to our Four Seasons management team on Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging.
Daron has a special way of connecting with the audience and providing a safe space to have open discussions about real issues. His wealth of knowledge allows him to engage with the audience, while providing credible sources for those interested in continuing education. Our team highly recommends Daron for your next speaking engagement or fireside chat.
Whenever we have the occasion to hire a speaker, Daron always comes to mind first.
On stage, Daron is dynamic, engaging, funny, accessible, masterful, and authentic all at the same time. I always walk away feeling inspired by his story and his vision to lift others.
In 2016 we asked Daron to help us with a first time project involving our head coach, an internationally renowned spiritual thought leader, and 250 high school students.
We could not have made a better decision. Daron was the perfect fit. He led the sensitive conversation in a powerful and motivating way. When his smarts, work ethic and vision meet...watch out! We are fortunate to share the Central Texas and sports landscape with him.
