"I hired Curtis Campogni for my annual conference after a well-known, high-profile speaker had a sudden schedule change. We coined Curtis as our “wild card” presenter. Throughout the process of planning our meeting, Curtis was overwhelmingly professional, prompt and understanding of my program's unique needs and audience. Curtis’ presentation ignited and inspired our staff after a long and very different year. Our staff laughed and engaged in ways we haven’t seen in a very long time. Thank you, Curtis."

"As someone who works in direct care with youth, it was great to have a trainer who has experience working directly with youth and families. I have had trainers before who were trying to teach staff without having that direct care experience, which led to the material not being practical and understandable. You made the material easy to understand and apply to our daily work. Thank you!!!"

"I loved the engagement of the audience and the tips to use when first meeting with clients/job seekers. It makes you take a step back and realize that even though we may have lots of experience in this field, it is still important to let your client lead their case plan or goals. Also, we should assist when needed but not force opinions and respect their boundaries and goals, which will assist in building rapport."
