Nick Bontis Reviews

  • I was one of the folks lucky enough to see you speak at the Century 21 chairman's circle. I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation and believe you really were the highlight of the entire event. Over the course of the last few weeks I was on vacation and read your book. It is incredible. The facts, stories and insight you shared and that book have changed the way that I view and will use technology and information sources.
    Century 21 - May 12 2020

  • Dr. Nick Bontis hit the stage running during his keynote talk and never let up. It was pure excitement and energy! 'Sustained success begins with you', was our conference theme and Nick's message to leadership that it must work more smartly to embrace the meteoric pace of information overload, clearly resonated with our audience. He engaged with tenacity and his creative genius had the crowd laughing, thinking, questioning and wanting for more. He is the perfect storm combining intellectual expertise, comedic relief and exceptional speaking skills all in one...you simply have to bring Dr. Bontis to your next event.
    Co Chair, Association of Manufacturing Excellence international conference - May 12 2020

  • As an executive member of the MDRT (Million Dollar Round Table), I was charged with finding a speaker that would impress one of the most discerning and sophisticated audiences around: an association of the top producing financial professionals in the world! My committee and I culled over 500 speaker videos and proposals from all walks of life. After dozens of hours of research, fact checking and comprehensive reviews, we selected Dr. Nick Bontis to speak at our Top of the Table event, an exclusive international MDRT conference for the world’s top performing professionals. He did not disappoint. In fact, Dr. Bontis not only blew away the conference committee but provided one of the best keynote presentations I have ever seen. He was even more of a smash hit than we anticipated. The international audience absolutely loved him as he had spent considerable time and effort researching our needs and learning about our association membership. The result was a rousing standing ovation! The following year, as we planned for another global event, Dr. Nick Bontis’ name was again on the top of everyone’s list. It was extremely rare for our association to have a speaker invited back. But he is no ordinary speaker. His presentations are a perfect mix of serious business-based messaging, backed with academic credentials, along with a very funny and engaging delivery. Our committee selected Dr. Bontis again to present on our main platform stage as a keynote speaker in front of over 6,500 financial professionals. His presentation was beyond outstanding! Once again he delivered a highlight performance that resulted in a standing ovation. It was unforgettable for our audience. The professionalism and efficiency he brings to the planning, execution and post-analysis phases of event planning is fantastic. He made our committee look great and made my life a lot easier. It is so nice to know that when you work with Nick, he is an engaged partner and he provides you with a fantastic return on your investment. I have no doubt, I will be working with Dr. Bontis again in the future. He is a crown jewel in the world of professional speakers.
    MDRT member, Andreoli Financial Services - May 12 2020

  • Nick Bontis is brilliant! He is one of the most energetic speakers I have ever met. Nick has the ability to bring his sessions to life. He is provocative and pushes the envelope in our thinking and how we do things. He does an amazing job in helping people focus on issues which would otherwise be brushed off as "unimportant" or "irrelevant". I have seen Nick at a few events and after every event I am left in awe of how he manages his audience and how he is able to engage the entire room. For our session, he was able to engage all levels of the organization in a fun and interactive way. He manages to create a sense of urgency and priority to the issue he is presenting. It is difficult to capture Nick's essence into words, but when trying to describe him and his presentations, the words talented and thought-provoking definitely come to mind.
    Speakers' Spotlight - Jul 13 2011

  • Bontis' talent for forcing the audience to think differently was of great benefit – a completely new view on how organizations can be left behind should they decide not to change.
