What They're Saying About Shawn
The comments below are just a sample of the thousands of clients and audience members worldwide who transformed their organizations through Shawn’s help.
We brought Shawn in to speak at our national conference, and our goal was to engage manufacturing leaders and give them implementable changes to bring back to their offices. Shawn definitely delivered. He spent time prior to the event interviewing our members to customize his keynote in dozens of ways to our industry, and we gave a copy of his book Pivot Point: Turn On A Dime Without Sacrificing Results to every one of our attendees at the conference. The book – and Shawn – were extremely well-received. I’ve been running organizations a long time and have seen good and bad presenters. I definitely recommend bringing Shawn in as your keynote speaker.
We just finished listening to Shawn speak. We had an audience of 200 businesspeople and Shawn challenged them – they were sitting in their seats paying great attention to him. Cell phones were not being checked, they were listening to every single thing he said. They were thinking about their business and how they could improve them because of what he said. He gave real-life examples for what they should be doing, with lots of note and picture taking from his slides all the time. Our folks probably have a 20-minute attention span and Shawn kept them engaged for an HOUR AND A HALF. Shawn was great!
I run the Vinoy Business Alliance program at the Vinoy Resort, and every month we bring in really interesting speakers – we were fortunate this afternoon to have Shawn Rhodes as our presenter, he packed the room and sold out the venue, it was one of the most professional talks we’ve ever heard in six years. The audience was completely engaged, we had to cut off the questions and answers section at the end. If anyone’s thinking about a keynote speaker, one who would keep the room totally mesmerized, I would highly recommend Shawn Rhodes.
We just got done hearing Shawn Rhodes speak and let me tell you- what an engaging, riveting talk it was! Our people were spellbound and super engaged. I highly recommend that you invite Shawn to be part of your next program or event.

I was able to bring Shawn Rhodes into our program this year and I have to tell you – you could have heard a pin drop in that room. He had them mesmerized from the moment he walked in. He’s speaking to leaders in the business world, drivers and thought leaders and he held them spellbound. I would strongly, highly, enthusiastically and unequivocally recommend Shawn Rhodes as a speaker.
Shawn is an incredibly engaging speaker and he helped us identify how we need to approach our team, keep everyone engaged, and knowing that even though something looks like a great outcome, nothing’s perfect – there’s always more to be learned. I highly encourage you to reach out to Shawn for your next event!
We had Shawn speak to our group. It was an amazing, engaging and motivational talk that had our folks taking notes and amazed at the information we received. I would recommend him anytime.
As Shawn took the stage, all were expecting the usual motivational message that speakers have. Instead, Shawn’s message was loaded with real-world insight and implementable strategies for our audience, it was presented in a manner that totally captivated our audience. The evaluations and feedback we received made it clear our audience learned from what Shawn shared and will use it long after. Its usefulness for all of our attendees, coupled with Shawn’s world-class delivery, gave us an experience that will be hard to top.
We heard Shawn was going to speak to us at Cherry Bekaert about change management; I was interested to learn about his approach in identifying small wins, making sure we know what the finish line is, and now that we’ve heard it I’m excited to put it to use!

We will be a greater company because of his impact.
