Mark Stevenson

"Mark’s presentation was uplifting, entertaining and enlightening. Working in Pharmaceuticals we have a very limited view of the world and his talk delivered important messages around change, breaking rules and the importance of innovation, presented in a manner that was both humorous, practical and entertaining."

"Mark had an auditorium of 1,500 people spellbound from the outset. He captivated a discerning audience of surgeons with an informal, humorous and very personal style: his concluding points were brilliant and his final message was met with thunderous applause. I very much look forward to hearing Mark again and strongly commend him to any conference organiser in search of a stimulating and engaging speaker."

"A really powerful session and encouraged people to think differently without being patronising and without over-simplifying things. It gave us time to look at things from a completely different perspective and an opportunity to consider how we might influence the bigger picture, not only just of our organisation, but of the whole health agenda in general. Mark’s ability to engage with the audience throughout was excellent and his knowledge of the subject matter brilliant. His ability to relate futurist concepts back to the work that we do was very thought provoking and helped to put everything into perspective. An excellent speaker and presenter (and very funny too)"

"Our delegates sat down in the session not knowing what to expect from a futurologist and what Mark gave them was an excellent presentation that was both amusing and thought provoking. The topics he discussed were broad enough to interest the wide spectrum of businesses in the audience, yet the information was also useful enough that everyone could take something away from it. Mark was easily one of the best speakers we have booked and our delegates couldn’t stop talking about him afterwards."

"Mark was the highlight of the whole two day event. His session was perfect from start to finish. It was absolutely the right fit for our agenda and he did an amazing job tailoring the message to the group and really making us think. People couldn’t stop talking about how great he was."

"Mark was absolutely brilliant and went down a complete treat. Informative, refreshing and had the audience hanging onto his every word!"

"Mark did a spellbinding job. It was a tremendous speech met with a standing ovation. It is not often that you can hear a pin drop in a room that size – but the audience was enthralled. Wonderful!"

"Mark was an excellent, thought provoking and highly entertaining speaker, opening the annual international conference for our profession. He was just the right mix of informative, humorous, challenging and engaging. He was well prepared, rehearsed and professional. We had only positive feedback. Mark was also very giving of his time throughout the remainder of the conference. I can highly recommend him."

"Mark is an entertaining and engaging speaker, and has a rare gift for making complex subjects clear and accessible without straying into glibness. We were impressed that several audience members commented that his talk spoke directly to their own desire to create change. Mark is practical yet has the capacity to inspire – you don't get both very often."
