Testimonials for John Eales AM

John was great to work with. Incredibly flexible and John’s content was very well received. 
Laing & Simmons

He was a pleasure to have at our event. Very professional and friendly.
Civil Contractors Federation

Excellent. John was well-prepared and professional with a touch of humour that really hit the mark for a predominantly non-rugby audience however, all guests came away with a sense of understanding and a little of his infectious love for the sport.

Very Good. John was a very good speaker and had our audience captivated for the hour over dinner. He was very easy to listen to.

Excellent. From the moment John arrived at the function he became part of the night. He chatted with all of our guests and happily had photographs taken and signed footballs etc. John was an excellent presenter. He spoke for over 40 minutes and the audience were totally immersed in his stories. He was happy to take questions and stayed quite late chatting to customers. I would highly recommend him.

Excellent.It doesn't matter whether you follow rugby or not, John is a figure to be admired. What is it that makes John such an admirable figure? Since the WOPPA dinner, I've thought about that question and his talk a lot and I think the quality that struck me most was his genuine humility.John is a man who has achieved so much in sport and then in business yet there is a distinct lack of self-righteousness. The crowd was thoroughly enthralled for the 1hr 20 mins he spoke lapping up his talk which was peppered with words of wisdom and a gentle self-deprecating humour. John was an absolute delight to work with and nothing was too much trouble. What a treat!
