Meeting planners testimonials

I've had the wonderful pleasure of working with 100s of professional speakers. Amanda Gore is a stand-out. I'm so appreciative of the work she does. She spent hours working with me to make sure her message would convey as well over the computer as it does in person. And, once again, she delivered a brand-new, authentically wonderful message that the audience needed to hear.

Amanda Gore is SENSATIONAL. Watching her wave her wand of magic across the whole conference room, positively igniting an energy of laughter and happiness is nothing short of miraculous. Amanda is the consummate professional, you absolutely know her presentation will be the show stopper for the event! And she is! Every single time!

Amanda’s session lifted the mood and left attendees energized to a point that they were literally singing and dancing in the aisles. We were greatly impressed by Amanda’s preparation and the effort she put in to understanding our business in order to adapt her presentation to suit our audience.

Amanda is able to very effectively communicate complex (science-based) concepts in an entertaining and engaging manner. I am also impressed with the effort she took in understanding our business before presenting. Excellent feedback from participants. We will use her again.

Amanda was an outstanding presenter. Her commitment to delivery of her presentation, in that she attended a session at the conference prior to her speaker appearance to ensure she was capturing the essence of our desired outcomes, displayed a professionalism I have not experienced from a guest speaker. Her passion to ensure she had the whole audience ‘in her hands’ was simply amazing, and an outcome she achieved.

She was delighted with their engagement with you. She said your message was perfect, that you were wonderful to work with and that all the feedback she’s getting is great.

Amanda Gore was chosen to close the National Mediation Conference held recently at the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre. Delegates who were unfamiliar with her work where left pleasantly surprised as she managed to connect with and make the whole auditorium feel engaged and part of the bigger picture. Both Amanda and her team were a pleasure to work with leading up to the conference and the highest level of professionalism and quality assurance was maintained throughout. For an engaging and captivating speaker that left delegates singing, happy and entertainment I highly recommend her services.

Amanda has the amazing ability to captivate, educate and motivate her audiences. Her message was on point, tailored and delivered in memorable way. The feedback we received from our delegates about Amanda's session was amazing. She was definitely a standout.

Amanda was a great speaker and fit for our franchise clients. Her burst of energy and natural enthusiasm is infectious and naturally brings people to engage and step outside their comfort zone. Amanda is flexible, adaptable and authentic. I look forward to working with her again!

Amanda is arguably the most respected professional speaker in Australia. This kind of recognition does not come without being truly exceptional at her craft. Enormously engaging, absolutely hilarious and exceptionally masterful in the management of the group, Amanda commands place at the very top of her industry for very good reason.

Amanda Gore is a breath of fresh air - the perfect storm of skill / experience and attitude. I have witnessed a number of Amanda's performances and marveled how quickly she had the audience literally in the palm of her hand. As a human being Amanda is also the 'real deal' - audiences and groups get that quickly. All in all Ms Gore is one of the most consummate professionals I have ever known. If you are wondering will she make a difference - don't waste your time - she will - just work out what sort of difference you want her to make.

Principal's in the North Coast Region, Department of Education, were privileged to have Amanda deliver the keynote address at their recent forum. Amanda was inspiring and professional in her delivery and had the audience literally on the edge of their seats. Her energy, enthusiasm, captivating stories and expertise on the subject left Principal's with valuable tools and strategies to implement into their everyday.

Amanda took the time to understand our business and tailored her presentation to suit. Our audience left extremely motivated and on a high!

Amanda Gore is an outstanding business woman and excellent platform speaker. Professional, polished and experienced she never disappoints her audience. She is skilled at bringing heart and soul into alignment and her message is applicable across all business sectors. Regardless of whether she is addressing 500 oil and gas executives or 100 small business owners she always manages to leave lasting footprints in the memory of those who's lives she touches. I can not recommend Amanda Gore highly enough. You won't be disappointed on engaging her services.

We had Amanda speak at our Conference and she was AMAZING. She had hundreds of people interacting and standing up smiling and engaged in her talk (which was tailored to our business). Her motivation was contagious and everyone left feeling energized and happy. Would highly recommend having her as a keynote speaker at any event!

WOW! never would I have imagined a room full of IT professionals getting up at a conference and dancing and singing with linked arms--- but Amanda made it happen!!! Amazing guest speaker full of energy, passion and enthusiasm. She made sure she knew her audience and delivered a result far greater than we asked for. Very happy with her contribution to our theme of "Success" and would have no hesitation in recommending Amanda to any audience as there was something for everyone in our 90+ group. Thanks Amanda look forward to working with you again.

Amanda was the Keynote Speaker at the Conference in Denver for Financial Service Sales Professionals. She thoroughly engaged the audience, and spoke of joy, gratitude, and happiness. All 130 attendees had great things to say about her, her message, and her method for "engaging" the audience in the presentation. I would highly recommend her as a Keynote Speaker.

Amanda is an electifying presenter and spirit ignitor!! I had the absolute pleasure of participating in the Keynote session at the HRPA Conference in Toronto where Amanda inspired a group of over 1000 Human Resource Professionals to move forward in a positive fashion. She engaged and captured the attention of her audience by sharing her approach to fulfill the needs of people in your business, therefore dispelling their fears and influence the desired behaviours that you seeking. Truly a delightful, entertaining and joyful presenter!

Amanda recently absolutely dazzled our members with her insights, practical strategies and encouragement to lead our best lives - all delivered in the most entertaining and hilarious way possible. We have been coordinating quarterly events for the past 18 months and have never received such incredible feedback from our members, who included people in the room and many groups live-streaming in from over twenty 'event hubs' across the State. Our post event online survey indicated the tremendous benefit gained by our members through Amanda's entertaining and insightful presentation.

Amanda took the stage and dazzled us all for an hour. She has an ability to read her audience and deliver the energy and messages they need. People emerged energized as they literally buzzed around the event reciting messages from her talk throughout the conference's remaining days. Evaluations that year cited her as not only one of the best speakers they'd experienced but also someone who delivered content that had a direct impact on their lives.

I have been a member of MDRT for 29 years and have seen some of the best speakers in the world. None has ever received 3 standing ovations like Amanda Gore.

Your talk took an audience of 6,000, already energized by a great program, to a new level. No wonder you were the only one, of some of the world’s greatest speakers on 4 days of main platform programming, to get 3 standing ovations.

Amanda Gore proved to be the best speaker we have ever brought in to speak to our organisation’s leadership group. Her very motivational and uplifting style has a way of communicating her message, even to those who are difficult to reach. By the end of the session, she had everyone laughing and truly enjoying the ‘Amanda Experience’.

Amanda, you were a smash hit!!! We did a review of the evaluation forms for the meeting and of course you received the highest marks and some of the most complimentary comments, many of whom demanded that we have you back EVERY year!

Amanda Gore is, quite simply, an outstanding presenter. I recently shared the stage with her at an 800+ conference and her combination of humour and quality content was brilliant. I'm still not sure if she's a health expert or a comedian but who cares...she's one of the best speakers I've ever seen and it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience watching and listening to her.

Amanda is a national treasure. She is the only speaker who has saturated the market in Australia, gone to the USA, saturated that market over a number of years and returned to Australia to do it all again. She does so well because she connects so well and she does that because she speaks into the listening language of the audience. She's engaging and delightful.

The reaction to your session at PIMS this year has been quite extraordinary, you scored 4.7 out of a possible 5. No one has ever done anything like this before. The Chairman of KPMG in Australia said the audience were captivated with your expertly delivered presentation.

Your overall rating was a 9.88 out of 10. You also got a ton of great comments, most of which had to do with getting you into the General Session next year.

Thank you for helping to put it together. This was, as the score and the comments indicate, a very successful event, and a galvanizing outing for our chapter.

You were fabulous on the main platform. The four and a half minute standing ovation was unprecedented. You are a special and gifted lady. It will not be long before you are the hottest US speaker around.

I just got the final event rating from the WPO office, 8.6 out of 10, based on 40 evaluations out of 135 participants. This was the highest attended event of the year, so far. Great speaker with an excellent message, a powerhouse of activity!

I ordered the video and showed it at a medical transcription symposium in Denver. You got all 4s with two people rating you as 5, off the chart! Thank you so much for helping make this symposium a success.

Congratulations on your high marks, and thank you for your help in making the IT Leadership Retreat such a success. Survey respondents gave your presentation an average score of 4.47 on a five-point scale, and your session ranked among the highest in value of the entire retreat.

As usual, Amanda did an excellent job with my smaller-than-expected audience. Our group gave her excellent reviews and she will be the buzz for some time. Our attending board members and sponsor were elated and thrilled with Amanda’s presentation.

I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation to the Oklahoma Restaurant Association. Your messages were diverse and on target. I’ve served on the ORA board for 17 years and past president; you were the BEST presenter we have ever had.

Amanda ticks all the boxes for me - and our delegates...she is absolutely wonderful and apart from the wisdom she imparts - she is so refreshingly unique...when I think of someone special and outstanding we have had present at our conferences over 12 years...Amanda is definitely in the Top 3!

Amanda- Thank you SO much for giving such an fabulous presentation to our Society of Incentive Travel Executives Southern California Chapter yesterday. Everyone loved you! Your words of inspiration were a huge example in how to package profound messages with humor and to be more appreciative of each other. After your talk, several attendees came up to me and said that was our best speaker presentation EVER! A couple of other colleagues who attended the event said it was so much more inspiring and enlightening than just hearing facts and figures from a speaker. At our SITE SoCal Board meeting later yesterday, we were all showing appreciation and saying "Ta-Da!" to each other! Thanks again for helping us laugh, learn, love, celebrate and for "lighting the pilot light in our hearts"! You're the best!

Amanda was the best key note speaker at a mediation conference I attended two years ago and what impressed me most was that she had clearly taken the time to understand our profession. Her key messages were delivered with relevant examples and scenarios. If two years later you can still remember the key messages of a presentation, then that is surely a mark of success? Amanda inspired us to bring joy to parties who come to mediation (not by waving a magic wand - although it is often tempting) but by providing support to conflicted parties and helping them to find a peaceful resolution. I highly recommend Amanda Gore.

I first saw Amanda speak live at a Meeting Planners International conference. She wowed the audience so much that she received a thunderous, lengthy standing ovation. Her program alone uplifted the mood of the overall conference. She had the attendees smiling and singing in the hallways during breaks. Basically, what Amanda does is educate people while they laugh - with great content on how to effectively deal with change and delivered in a way that makes a real lasting difference.

Amanda is one of the best speakers I have ever experienced! She shines and gets the audience in a magical state. She performs with humour and wisdom and I can´t wait to hear her again. Whenever I think of her I smile and sing "Always look on the bright side of life"

I have seen Amanda present about 20 times. So, I knew she was a sure thing when I approached her to present at the In Business In Health conference. What I didn’t expect was, that compared to the last time I saw her speak (about 3 years ago), she was about twice as good. I didn’t think it were possible! Amanda’s presentation was the highest rated from our conference, with repeated requests to invite her back for next year’s event. She makes the audience believe that they can change their world, and then the world. She talks about the hard stuff… and combines these lessons in a hilarious manner that makes it easy for the audience to digest. Some written feedback from our evaluation survey included the following comments about Amanda's presentation: "What an awesome way to finish the day! Amanda had everyone up out of their seats, dancing, motivated, inspired and left us in a atmosphere of love, joy and positivity, could listen to her all day!" "Amanda energised the room as soon as she stepped on to the stage! Her passion, love, enthusiasm and joy was so refreshing and motivating." "Amanda is an absolute legend! Big TA-DAs to her!" "Amanda perfectly balanced education with humour. Fabulous use of different learning styles and engaging communication." "Best keynote I’ve ever heard!"

Amanda Gore is an amazing speaker and an even more amazing person. She brings humor, knowledge and Joy to every presentation. I first hired Amanda for a keynote presentation at the Creative Memories Annual Convention and the attendees loved her. They laughed, they cried and they spoke "Amandaisms" for months after her presentation. I was so pleased with the results that I had her back for a presentation at the CM Leadership Conference. I also had her speak to the Creative Memories Canadian Annual Meeting where she received a standing ovation. I arranged for Amanda to speak to the Direct Selling Association Annual Meeting on the same program as Dr. Phil. Amanda was the star of the Meeting. Her insights and delivery opened doors for her to speak to dozens of additional DSA companies. I asked Amanda to speak at the Scentsy Annual Meeting to over 6,000 attendees and as expected, she did not disappoint. She brings amazing insights into human nature and enables one to change themselves from within. It is with great joy that I recommend Amanda as an amazing speaker, trainer and entertainer. She is the best!

Our company tends to be very conservative and, truth be told, probably a little difficult to please. We are a tough crowd. There were undoubtedly 'safer' choices than you… I had nothing to worry about. You were hilarious, amazing, touching and unforgettable. I would have thought it unthinkable to have everyone pleased with your performance, but I have literally not heard one negative word!

Our evaluation tool rates a speaker on a 1-5 scale with 5 being excellent. Your total was 4.95, the highest of any of our previous speakers. Several people changed your score to a 10 or added many pluses next to the scores of 5! The comments were reflective of the impact you had on our staff. Adjectives such as ‘awesome’, ‘excellent’ and ‘the best’ were interspersed with full comments like ‘best speaker yet, have her back’!

The critiques that I previewed gave you the highest of ratings. I was worried that the presentation would be too long for this group to sit through, but everyone thought you should have had more time. Figure that out! I did a presentation at one of our larger companies yesterday and the folks that attended your session raved about you. So you made me look good too!

It was not a surprise to see that you were the highest rating speaker at the SOLGM Conference in Palmerston North last September. Your keynote address rated 3.8 out of 4! Excellent!!!! Here are some of the comments we received (from engineers!): ‘Amanda's approach to motivation was not only fun but provided a valuable learning experience.’ ‘Amanda Gore was in a class of her own - absolutely top class!’ ‘I have seen a large number of ‘inspirational speakers’ at conferences over the years and Amanda was easily the best.’ ‘wow, Amanda Gore - worth attending just for that’ ‘Amanda Gore was fantastic amusing and practical - Love to see her back.’

I had the pleasure of attending Amanda Gore's presentation at a leadership conference sponsored by Burger King Corp several years ago. Her presentation was so insightful regarding the dynamics between parents, their children, and how those behaviors show up in the workplace. Her presentation was so enjoyable, humorous and insightful that it was the most attended key note speaker event ever for Burger King Leadership. I would highly recommend her for any organization or group.
