What Others are Saying

John Hindle cares. I have had the opportunity in over 35 years in the recreation/fitness/wellness industry to hire and listen to many dynamic keynote speakers. The measuring stick that is always used is "impact". Did they get the job done? Was the desired end result evident in the audience?

John Hindle ensures that he hits the ball out of the park ! I have never seen a pre-speaking information gathering process as thorough as John's. He met with us, he attended sessions in the conference and got to know what was in the minds and hearts of our delegates. He asked us precision questions about our audience that allowed him to connect with them in an extraordinarily meaningful way.

When it came time to deliver the Keynote, John was able to look into the eyes of the audience and know who he was speaking to. He knew their struggles and opportunities and crafted his speech based on what we needed them to hear to enhance their profession. He connected, he inspired, we laughed, we thought, we will march forward in a new way.

Thanks John for caring enough about us to understand us and take us to the next level.

“The Manitoba Baseball Association has had the pleasure of having John Hindle speak on two occasions at our annual awards banquet – both times were a delight for our audience. John is very comfortable speaking to a crowd and has been a natural fit for our association due to his long-time involvement with the sport of baseball, including managing the Winnipeg Goldeyes and running his former company, Home Run Sports. His understanding of the sports and business worlds provides an entertaining mix of stories and morals for all ages. We had nothing but positive comments when he spoke.”
