Don’t take our word when it comes to the power of a Target Leadership keynote. Read below to see what our customers have to say!
Jeff is the epitome of professional and impact. With a mandate to inspire over 250 people across the US, Canada, and Ireland via video, Jeff did more than deliver; he conquered! Using humor, emotion, experience, easy-to-use tools, and storytelling, Jeff brought the importance of safety home, BIG TIME. He reached the hearts of everyone, and his video is being used over and over with our teams to bring safety to the forefront in an accessible and powerful way – for the company, for our families, for our communities. Thank you Jeff. Bath Fitter loves you!
We selected Odie to be the keynote speaker for our 7 days of annual MSHA refresher training for all Rio Tinto employees. The professionalism, care, motivation, and inspiration Odie brought to our event made it one of the best ever. Attendee evaluations spoke volumes about how impacting his message and delivery were:
“The speaker [Odie] we had was great. Makes me want to be safe at all times”
“Keynote speaker we had was awesome – great humor and powerful message that was relevant to our work!”
“I enjoyed this year’s keynote speaker better than the previous eight years that I have attended this event.”
“Odie was a breath of fresh air as far as speakers.”
Beyond all of his great work, Odie is an incredible person who lights up every room he enters. He brings joy and inspiration in mass. Thank you Odie, for making what could be a dry compliance event come to life with who you are and the message you are so passionate about sharing. We are better off having you this year to drive home our “Be Here Now“ theme in so many meaningful ways.
Jeff reinforced that I have the ability to change the course of my life as well as those I influence by setting an example. In the process of reassessing my personal and professional life, Jeff’s presentation couldn’t have come at a better time. I’ve use this as a reminder to live more mindfully and begin to understand the scope of my impact.

My thanks to Odie for a great and impactful presentation this morning. I would be pleased to provide a referral to any company that may want to ‘see how it went’
Odie spoke at our annual employee event. Our theme this year with safety. I cannot say enough positive things about Odie and the message he delivered to our employees. I had folks coming up to me all day telling me how much it impacted them. He took a tough topic, broke it down into the core issues at hand, and delivered it with a passion and an energy that took people on an emotional roller-coaster ride. Thank you.
Last fall I was at the NRECA Safety Summit In San Antonio and Odie gave a presentation on “It’s the little things”. It was without a doubt the most compelling presentation I have ever heard.I showed it to our Co-op in our January safety meetings this week and I have never had the response from our people as I have had since the meeting. From our most senior lineman asking if I had him in mind when I showed it because of him taking a short cut and having younger apprentices assuming then that it was ok to cut corners.He told me he had some soul searching to do on his work practices as a senior leader.I didn’t get the chance to speak to you after the meeting last fall but I thought you needed to hear what a powerful impact your presentation has had on our people here
Odie gets the message across to his audience. He spoke to over 5,000 of our utility employees. His content and body language sinks so well that his message stays with his audience for long time.
Outstanding presentation at our event this week. Odie was a perfect fit! Captivating, motivating and meaningful, with touches of heartstring and humor. The group was truly captivated by his presentation and workshop!!! A Big thank you, he is a pleasure to work with..
Odie, I enjoyed meeting you in person. I feel like I know you having watched your videos for several years now. Hats off to Rod Nease for hiring you to sweep our entire southern region with your powerful leadership message
Odie, Thank you for a great keynote and opening our leadership workshop yesterday. I received fantastic feedback that you “NAILED IT” with the message!
Hi Odie, I was blessed to be in attendance to hear your presentation at the Apache AIM Up meeting today.Your gift for presenting valuable information in a very entertaining manner is truly remarkable. Because of this, your information is easily retained and your message is contagious. This will not only help me be a more effective team player but a better contributor to society as well. Your message to “Be accountable, not held accountable” and “Did I make the day or did I make a difference” are two statements that struck a chord with me. Thank you for making me more aware of the little things that can/will make a difference to others..
I am happy to report that Jeff did a fabulous job for us. He started our conference off with a real vibrant presentation that got everyone talking and thinking. Just what we had hoped he would do. I am very happy to say that I would recommend Jeff to any other safety conference group looking for a dynamic and vibrant speaker with a topic that dovetails nicely with the needs and challenges of the occupational health and safety world.
Everyone loved your presentation and personality. Everything you brought to the table certainly sets up a challenge for us on how to become inspirational leaders. Thank you for your help and thank you!
I was very impressed and your message really impacted me.
