Shawn taught us about presentation skills. He was exemplary in preparation and execution. We changed our behaviour with how we create presentations. The prework he developed made our training session very productive. Shawn's follow-up was astounding. He asked us how well we were implementing the new skills we acquired. He also provided numerous published references for us to use to keep the training alive.

Post one year training, Shawn supplied further resources, and reminded us of the main tenets of our training. There are not a lot of sessions I have had where I am using the material immediately and am still using it today (as well as the rest of group trained).

The preparation, execution and follow-up, are some I have not seen with other training/educating organization. Shawn is a wealth of information.

I had the privilege of hiring Shawn to coach my team here at LinkedIn and it was very successful. He received the highest NPS score of the year. Shawn offers a unique perspective and brings content to the table in a way that is both engaging and easy to replicate. I've also had the opportunity to work with Shawn outside of my current role and will continue to do so into the future.

Shawn and I have worked on and on for more than a decade. And through that decade, I opened two restaurants in New York City, given two stars by The NY Times, featured in an international documentary, wrote a critically acclaimed best selling cookbook, left a relationship that was not working and now I’m well on my way to becoming POTUS! Well, that last part isn’t in my sights but knowing Shawn, if it were, he’d help me get there. Now, my dreams have always been my own, and he helped me prioritize what was important, encouraged me and helped me get to my dreams with integrity and character. Now, in my second act of this three act play, I’m working with him to find out what I want to commit to as my next projects. I can’t wait to see what’s next.

My professional success and personal sanity this year can be directly attributed to Shawn's coaching. No self-help, productivity, or leadership book will provide the personalized actionable items to uncover what matters - it's Shawn's guidance and accountability that will transform the way you think. His coaching sessions have been a key component to fundamentally changing the way I not only work, but live purposefully.

I attended Shawn Shepheard’s Mastermind session at a point when I was in the process of changing my business model. I thought it might help me with the change but I had no idea how much it would help. Shawn’s coaching helps you to think about the very core of your issues, both professional and personal and to confront them and deal with them. The session was of immeasurable assistance.

For several years the highlight of our annual conference has been Shawn Shepheard. The audience is laughing one moment, dabbing at a tear the next and all the while being challenged and inspired. He delights all ages and backgrounds and his message is universal. At a recent conference, an octogenarian said, "Shawn teaches me something new about life each time and I am so energized now!!!" And THAT is why we have him back each year.
