Mr. Shapiro's humor and showmanship were perfect vehicles for his message, and set the right tone for the keynote.

During his presentation, Jonathan had our group laughing. Afterward, he had us thinking. He was insightful and humorous, on point and just plain clear. I hope we have a chance to hear him again.
