Matthew King

"Matt’s messages are clear around the power of teamwork, linking in well with the rest of our content, but the magic of Matt’s presentation is Matt himself. He is inspirational and the stories of his achievements in the face of adversity that most of us cannot imagine are very powerful and moving. All delivered by an intelligent, witty and charming guy. He received a well-deserved standing ovation from our leaders and we’re hoping he has the same effect on our management population in May."

"Matt took to the stage to close a one-day conference in front of 600 of American Express' valued employees, and you could have had a pin drop throughout; he utterly captivated his audience with his inspirational story, but more importantly, empowered delegates to face and overcome their own personal challenges. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Matt."

"We celebrated our International Men's Day today with Matt King OBE, a positive role model who should be heard by as many people as possible... The world would be a better place! #positive #rolemodel #kindness"

"Words cannot do justice to the impact Matt has had on our workforce. As a speaker he is inspirational, as a person quite unbelievable and as a tool to engage our employees, he has been invaluable. Matt's unquenchable desire to succeed and overcome is now ingrained in our philosophy at Lend Lease."

"Thank you Matt for sharing your story with us. The first ever standing ovation we have seen at our Annual Conference and Exhibition!"

"As a patient, Matt has experienced many care episodes by nurses and care staff in the NHS. His powerful and emotional journey through recovery and rehabilitation is one I would recommend all nurses and care staff to listen to and hear."

"Matt King is quite a force of nature. He delivers an inspiring view from the perspective of someone who has gone from rock bottom, literally in an instant, to blowing the doors off of life… Listen to him, and be inspired to believe that there is ALWAYS a way forward!"

"Matt's impact on our staff has been phenomenal and they report that he has truly influenced their outlook on life. The atmosphere when he told his story was nothing less than electric, you could have heard a pin drop. From an organisational perspective, he is superb value for money. From a personal perspective, his value is immeasurable."

"Your presentation was honest, emotive and truly inspirational and you captivated the entire room. Your story of exceptional courage and determination will stay with us forever and will drive us every day to deliver an even better service to our customers."

"Matt's presentation is powerful and emotion churning, bringing all the attendees to their feet with a spontaneous, standing ovation. I have been facilitating Professional Development Days for many years and have never had one evaluated as well as this!"
