Client Testimonials

There is no doubt in my mind that Drew is one of the most articulate, interesting and inspirational speakers I've ever heard. I have attended conferences from California to London to Beijing, but I have never heard a speaker who can captivate and motivate an audience like Drew. - Dr. Brian Harrington, Oxford University (United Kingdom)

Nuance increased the capacity of our Leadership program tenfold. The Nuance speakers were accessible for both the audience and my budget. Their commitment to good speakers takes the worry out of booking. - Mark Solomon, Manager of Student Development, Seneca College

We have never had a keynote speaker that everyone ranked so high in our evaluations! [Drew] received 5.30 out of 5.00 on the evaluations and the individual feedback was awesome too.” – Michelle Marino, Events Lead, Halton Industry Education Council “Breakfast with the Mayors"

Numerous members of our group have let me know how [Drew’s} words yesterday have impacted them in such a positive and inspirational way.  One of my colleagues has already taken the steps to repair a relationship with an old friend.  [Drew is] an amazing individual and we are so lucky to have spent our Leadership Retreat morning with [him].” – Amanda Bjorn, Director, Learning and Development, Providence Healthcare

Not only was the presentation engaging and highly entertaining, it left everyone with multiple take-home messages. In addition, Drew was a pleasure to work with leading up the conference (our phone conversations always left me smiling) and very willing to ensure the content of the presentation matched the subject matter we were highlighting at the conference. I would recommend Nuance over and over again! – Hannah O’Donovan, Executive Assistant to the Vice-President, MMPI Canada

Drew Dudley represents an inspirational melody of meaningful messages, colourful story illustrations and a true visceral connection to young smart adults. He rocks the audience because he’ll rock your sense of perspective, challenge your thinking, re-frame your paradigm and make you laugh at the same time. Above all, Drew Dudley is credible because he lives and breathes integrity. He knows true leadership depends on deep integrity. The qualities of honesty with self, sincerity with others, respect for human dignity and an extraordinary sensitivity to the human condition in all its manifestations – these are trademarks of Drew. His leadership messages incorporate these universal principles and are delivered with a provocative flair that will capture your attention, move your audience to self-reflection and a living memory of the event. - Tom Nowers, Retired Dean of Student Affairs, Special Advisor to the Principal & Vice-President, University of Toronto Scarborough

Drew brings an incredible amount of charisma and energy to everything he does. He is a talented public speaker, a passionate leader, and perhaps most noteworthy - Drew is someone committed to helping bring out the best in others. Highly recommended. - Dan Jacob, Co-Chair and Founding Member, TEDxToronto Conference

Drew has a remarkable ability to present leadership in a way I’ve encountered nowhere else. He deals with leadership as a normal and natural response to need where it occurs. For anyone who has ever struggled with thinking of themselves as a leader, either because the idea seems too self-important or fraught with complications or for any other reason, Drew’s presentations are invaluable. He offers a kind of leadership that doesn’t require followers or opponents, only natural human instincts of caring and respect carried to their logical conclusions. He challenges his audience to ask not how they’d like to be regarded by others but rather how they would like to think of themselves. - Jeff Rybak, Author of “What’s Wrong with University: And How To Make It Work For You Anyway”

When researching and hiring a speaker, presentation skills and confidence are a given. What impresses me most about Drew, and what I feel puts him apart from many of his peers, is that he is incredibly intuitive to the needs of his client, and to the audience to whom he is presenting. When Drew speaks, it isn't about Drew. It is about you, and me, and everyone else in the room except Drew. I love that! –Brock Warner, Stephen Thomas Ltd./Toronto Young Non-Profit Professionals
