Leadership Speaker in Greensboro, NC

"Mike Goodwin is a fabulous presenter! He immediately connected with the audience and provided a session of meaningful dialogue and humor, just as we were hoping for and more! His stage presence is perfect and his comments relatable to our conference participants. Leadership and Laughter was very well received by our audience of over 700 participants!"

Training Manager, NCWorks Training Center
Motivational Speaker in Farmville, NC

"Larry Weaver captivated our audience with humor related to our field of interest (safety and construction) but emphasized the importance of having a clean and safe work place at the same time. He showed interest in the audience by wanting to learn more about our company and the people, and used that information to appeal to the audience even more. His Southern charm and sense of humor related to our audience and provided a much needed laugh as we celebrated 15 years accident free, which is unheard of in our industry. He demonstrated professionalism through his courteous demeanor and respect for our audience with good, wholesome comedy. His performance was definitely a game changer when it comes to the guest speakers we look for in our awards ceremonies! Our audience really enjoyed his personality, and he was a pleasure to work with."

"Larry Weaver nailed it talking about a positive attitude, resiliency, and kindness! I believe this goes a long way today in the sales/business/ healthcare world. In fact, just in our daily life if you are a father, mother, friend, or coworker this is very valuable and important. I saw this many many times over the week when we were at the Summit."

"Larry Weaver brought humor, levity and fun to nurses at our Annual Convention this year. His presentation was just the right 'medicine' at the right time!"

Director of Nursing Education and Practice, North Carolina Nurses Association
Teamwork Speaker in Greensboro, NC

"We loved Paul Miller! He not only did a great job as per our expectations of his official 'Act' but he was able to truly 'go with the flow' as we did have some technical issues along the way. He just went with it and our crowd loved him. Such a great demeanor and fun. I will highly recommend him and hope that we might have opportunity to hire him again."

Client Hospitality Manager, Newbridge Bank Corp
Motivational Speaker in Troy, NC

"Larry Weaver presented at Montgomery Community College as part of our Welcome Back at the beginning of the fall semester. Larry responded to my initial inquiry and provided a quote within the same day. Additionally, he provided guidance in planning the event and incorporated information about the local area into his presentation. Larry was a pleasure to work with and our employees thoroughly enjoyed his hilarious keynote."

Motivational Speaker in Thomasville, NC

"Larry Weaver inspired and encouraged our School Nutrition professionals all while keeping us laughing! During the initial ironing out of details as well as the days leading up to the event, Larry was quick to respond and easy to work with. He was knowledgeable of the audience and sensitive to the feel of the room. He made his presentation even more personable by tying it all back to his mother, who worked in a cafeteria for many years. I would recommend Larry to be your next keynote speaker!"
