Michael Licenblat

Michael was engaging, funny and connected well with the audience. The content was very relevant and he was professional to deal with.

Michael Licenblat's principles resonated deeply with us and although the session was delivered via Zoom (due to lockdown) it did not detract from the engagement and participation, and in some ways, actually even increased their involvement in the session.
Courage to Care

We had booked Michael Licenblat for a face-to-face conference, however (due to COVID), this had to be postponed but we were able to do a Hybrid Conference with Michael presenting virtually from Victoria. The feedback from the client on his talk was excellent and even though presenting over zoom, they loved the way he was still able to engage with the audience – the fact he was standing and animated and not sitting just in front of the camera really made a difference to the delivery.

Michael Licenblat is highly skilled in presenting online and also managed the online Q&A via the chat box making it an interactive event. I can only imagine how amazing he would be presenting in person.
Banyule City Council

Today was perfect! The conversations in the chat rooms were great and the engagement level was high. Zoom definitely did not affect the level of buy-in from the team. I am so looking forward to our next session.

After a mad year of COVID in 2020, Michael brought his much needed expertise in resilience to the Hodges Real Estate company. Michael worked with our group prior to delivering his program to tailor the content to suit the varying needs of different departments within our business. Michael was able to draw from his personal experiences to teach our staff how to bounce back and remain pressure proof in a practical and engaging way.

Thank you for a great presentation that you delivered to the retail sales team of Scotts Australia. Your high energy and interactive style engaged the team right from the beginning and kept them interested and involved all the way through.  Everyone in the conference took away new ideas and skills to enhance their resilience and working stamina that will, no doubt, help them reach their sales targets.  Michael, I thought your program was 'spot on' for our team and look forward to working with you again in the future.

Michael delivered a fantastic seminar for our clients, where he energised the audience with his simple to understand style and exceptional knowledge and skills. The audience was engaged right from the start, and left committed to improving themselves, overcoming reluctance and staying motivated. Michael is an exceptional ‘people coach’ who delivered a wonderful program.

As a speaker bureau, my reputation is on the line every time we put forward a speaker. In saying this there are some speakers who you know you never have to worry about. Michael Licenblat is one of those truly professional and reliable speakers. Michael represented our agency as a keynote speaker and received great feedback from the delegates. I was also in the audience and was very pleased that Michael was a representation of our brand. Michael is engaging, entertaining and most importantly delivers valuable content.

Michael was by far our best presenter to date. From the beginning to the end you kept everyone engaged. Your common sense approach to building resilience gave people the confidence to put these principles in place both in their professional and personal lives.

An outstanding presentation! Not only was the delivery of the presentation inspiring, but it dealt with the topic of dealing with adversity on a very practical level that lends well to implementation in the workplace.  Thank you again for your time and dedication, which was instrumental to making our ALC conference a success!

When Michael starting speaking I looked around the room and noticed a lot of engagement and many heads nodding in agreement, relating strongly to his concepts.  I knew at that point that this guy knows what he is talking about.

Wow. What a presenter!  Insightful, informative and engaging.  Michael really connected with attendees by involving conference participants in the presentation through movement and asking for real life anecdotes.  We highly recommend Michael as a presenter and would be delighted to see him on our speaker list again in the future.

We chose to work with Michael because a lot of our Franchisees are self employed business people and it can be tough running a business on your own, whilst looking for new clients, and we wanted to help our people become more resilient, stay positive, and proactive in their prospecting.   Michael not only inspired our group to stretch their comfort zones, but also showed us how to do it in their sales and business activity.  Michael has worked across our organisation from our annual conference, to state manager mentoring, and Franchisee training.

I highly recommend the sales resilience matrix as a tool for managers to break down conflict barriers and as an effective tool to driver team performance. The tools are very user friendly and the program itself has become a real part of our operational culture. Michael is an outstanding presenter and I would highly recommend his services for your next sales conference.

Following an exceptional key note address on resilience at our National conference we rolled out Michaels Business Rainmakers workshop sessions across the country targeting Advisers running their own businesses. This initiative has created a much needed focus on increasing productivity. If you aim to rejuvenate and refocus your sales force Michael has the tools that work!

You may be interested to know that we had a nurse meeting today and the nurses said that they are using your training tips in the course of their triage phone calls to great effect.  As we know, many people attend training and the learnings disappear after a while and people can slide back to old habits. I think it is a great testimony to the efficacy of your session as it has formed part of their work practices and still does.

We usually only have speakers from within the real estate industry speak at our events, however the choice to bring in Michael Licenblat, an external speaker, has proven to be an excellent choice.  Michael quickly engaged our group and showed that he understood our industry.  Michael's resilience presentation was both entertaining and hands on, giving our property management teams some practical communication tips, and self management tools, that will add great value to their relationships with their clients.  I look forward to working with Michael again.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your professionalism and excellence in the delivery of the workshops to our consultants on “How to deal with negative and difficult people – without becoming drained”.  The feedback from the session has been extremely positive.  You provided a ‘toolbox’ for our people on both a personal and professional basis so that they are able to tackle each and every appointment with a clear mind, and you provided practical tips on how to handle a work-life balance.  Most interesting was the segment about reading and understanding pressure profiles.  This segment has motivated our consultants to think about our internal and external relationships and why they, and the people they work with, react to pressure situations in different ways.

I am very happy, and I must say unsurprised, that all the feedback received from your recent seminar for the NIBA Young Professionals (National Insurance Brokers Association) has been very positive. The Insurance Industry is certainly finding that we have much more pressure put on our day to day activities than every before, and the techniques and knowledge provided by you will no doubt be invaluable to the attendees. I would like to thank you for your enthusiastic and interesting presentation and would have no hesitation recommending you to anyone working in a high pressure industry.

I am writing to thank you for presenting the session on ‘Pressure Proofing yourself in work and life’ at the Maurice Blackburn and Associates’ and Senior Associates’ Conference.  I appreciate the time and effort you invested in the preparation and presentation for the conference in the weeks prior.  Your presentation provided attendees with relevant and useful information, and practical ways to manage the pressures experienced in the workplace and at home.  The energy was fantastic, and the supporting materials great so that all is not forgotten once the conference is finished. I look forward to working with you in the future.

Your presentation and interaction with the staff was commented on extremely favourably and we wish to thank you for making the staff feel extremely comfortable yet captivating their attention on a subject that was crucial to their professional development.  It was pleasing to have the topic delivered in a relaxed style, knowing it hit the mark and has now made the staff aware of what is available to them.  Your attendance helped us to make this year’s conference a success. It is pleasing to report that your presentation ranked as one of the highest in our 3 day agenda.  Feedback from staff was very positive and they look forward to the challenge of managing their day and lifestyle better now!  Again, sincere thanks for your attendance and valued input.

Your presentation helped to show us how we can turn stress into energy and enthusiasm to benefit not only our business, but also our quality of life.  Your use of humour, personal anecdotes and audience interaction both entertained the members and gave them practical strategies to enhance their personal performance when working under pressure.  Thank you for taking the time to customize the program and getting to know our industry.  Your presentation definitely contributed to the overall success of the conference. I look forward to working with you in the future.

Your practical strategies on work-life balance and personal maintenance were also very well received. Thanks you for an entertaining and enjoyable presentation and for helping us to build a ‘resilient workforce’.

Michael is very open with sharing his own life experiences and relating them back to the simple techniques/tools he took us through.  As managers we are juggling many things at once that at times impacts our work life balance, I really felt the tools Michael took us through will help us achieve greater resilience in challenging times. I would highly recommend Michael to any organisation looking to build resilience in their workforce.

As teachers we are helping to mould and guide young lives, so it is important that we stay focused and enthusiastic with our work.  It’s hard to do that with the everyday rush of the job.  Michael’s program has helped us to just that.  We need to take a moment each day to release the pressure and rebuild our resilience.  Due to the interest in the program, we had over 100 teachers and support staff attend Michael’s half day program on ‘How to Pressure Proof yourself and become resilient to tension and burnout’.  The only venue that would cater was the school gym.  Even with a room this size, Michael’s dynamic and interactive nature ensured that everyone was engaged and participated all the way through.  The follow up resources (CD and personalised email follow up program) ensured that the learning has stayed fresh in the participant’s minds months after the program. I have also very positive feedback from all who attended and some who were unable to get there have accessed the CD and notes which they found worthwhile. I am very happy with the outcome.

I would like to thank you for the invaluable sessions you presented at the Fenton Communications staff conference. The content was excellent and was delivered in a most engaging and appropriate way. At out post conference review, every staff member reflected that they had taken some key actions from the session and had incorporated them into their working day. It is not easy to present to a group of experts in communication and Michael exceeded our expectations ten fold.

Our company was going through some very significant changes and we decided to have Michael Licenblat run his bounce back series to revitalize the staff.  Michael’s sessions were truly inspirational and our staff walked away with a new lease of life and engaged in their work once again.

As a result of the Matrix Training we have identified and acknowledged that increasing the weekly activities in particular, property inspections and open houses, we have created an increase in our sales activity and subsequently higher commissions.  This has been very evident with our lower income producers who we have worked extensively with the Matrix training model and it has been successful.

Michael presented at the end of our two day conference, at a time when energy levels are quite low.  Michael was incredibly engaging, the energy and enthusiasm from the participants was palpable.  His common sense approach resonated with the team, reminding them to get back to basics and giving them simple but effective tools to take into the field

Michael Licenblat was an outstanding presenter and his format was both informative and interactive so the time went very quickly.  I found the session positive and rewarding; the concepts he covered and the breadth of experience he drew on resonated with men and women alike, from my observation, more so because they were real situations drawn from his life. As his training is very soundly based in both his academic and broader professional training his genuine commitment to the concepts he espoused was obvious.
