“Leslie, when I first contacted you to customize a Program for Emirates Hotels & Resorts, I was not sure if our unique challenge could be handled by you and your team. I must say, having had both the Harbour & Green Lakes, go through your 2 weeks training , my staff and management have not stopped singing praises and I am personally pleased with not just the Impact and End Result but the forming of a culture we can now call our own. Thank You!”

Hans Hensel – Divisional Senior.
Vice President – Emirates Group

“Leslie is one of those people who can motivate you to the extreme- if he would tell you to jump out of the window and fly; you would do- because he made you believe you CAN.
Thanks a lot for this eye-opener Leslie and Boooyaaaahhh! “

“He amazed me with his way of speaking and communicating with us! He is a great speaker who knows what is he talking about and who knows the ‘KNOW HOW’! He is a person who honestly enjoys life with passion and fun and at the same time he is able to make a huge positive influence on other people. If you heard him to talk once you will never forget him! My only advice to get a chance to listen to him! “

“Leslie has truly been an inspiration to me, and for all those embarking on a talk with him, buckle up, it’s going to be an awesome ride !”

Daniel Galatis,

“An astonishing man, the David Blaine of the talks, simply the best. What I learned best from Leslie is that you find what you seek and focus on. You will never see your true potential unless you apply what you learn. Also don’t let other people take control of your life, your life is your own and only you, yourself, can change that! “
