What Christopher Howell's clients say
"Christopher transformed our global sales conference into a truly special experience. He has an extraordinary skill using magic to bring the narrative of the conference to life. He immediately clicked with the audience capturing the imagination of each participant. The presentation was deeply inspirational, uniquely relevant and enthralling on all accounts. Christopher’s magic touch left us all awe-inspired gifting us an unforgettable time."
"Delegates were extremely pleased by the presentation as it wasn’t just about fixing professional problems that sometimes seem insurmountable, but it was about how to tap into creativity in all activities of your week to be more grounded and resourceful. Then to tap into that creative resource pool when you need to do it at work."
"Christopher rose to the challenge of providing an energetic keynote after lunch for our week of UK conferences. He met with us several weeks before our conference to craft a presentation using his magic skills that took on board our objectives and messages for the day and expressed them in an entertaining way. The feedback from our delegates about Christopher's spot was positive and it added a fun and memorable element to a day that otherwise would have just been full of hard work. It was a pleasure working with him and we highly recommend his presentations."
"Christopher was a blast of fresh air, delivering a powerful and thought-provoking workshop which not only challenged us to think in new and innovative ways, but also gave us plenty of tips and techniques to help us apply the lessons to our business and personal lives. All this, while keeping the group entranced and thoroughly entertained. One of the most effective, original and enjoyable sessions I have ever experienced."
"What we experienced was far more than a masterful illusion. Christopher’s session was extremely thought-provoking in a very positive way. The surprise was that he engaged the issues at both deeply philosophical and temporal levels simultaneously. I was very impressed by the way he engaged the group. He did not ‘act’ in front of us; he pulled us into a world which we created together. I have no hesitation in recommending him to other organizations."
"Thank you so much for your excellent and very inspiring workshop. You delivered everything we hoped for and more. With such a diverse group as ours, it is often hard to please everyone but what you did was spot on – a perfect balance of entertainment, drama (how apt for us!), education and inspiration. The feedback that I have heard is all very positive. (You demonstrated) how to do something slightly outside of most people’s comfort zones and highlighted what can be achieved by looking at things differently."
"Thank you so much for contributing to the success of the event. It was great having you as a speaker at the conference in Istanbul. Your session was very interesting and thought-provoking. The exercises not only were intriguing but they also clearly illustrated that “things are not always what they seem”. All too often we don’t stop and think about a solution in the right frame of mind. I would also like to comment on your professionalism which I really appreciated."
"As a magician we can imagine that Christopher is able to bring wonder and joy to a multitude of audiences, however he took that joy even further by being able to weave in a narrative of inspiration and motivation, and creativity for us. As a corporate demography these are traits that we often demand but don’t really allow ourselves to explore. Opening our eyes to this was literally magic."
"Christopher's unique approach to unpacking and landing key principles in a way that is engaging, magical and entertaining, elevated our summit to be the best event of the year."
