Vincent Phipps is absolutely contagious with joy. He infects everyone he meets with that joy and a large dose of positivity. I’ve seen him command stages and challenge and change organizations through his transformational principles. But greater than his stage presence is who he is off the stage. He truly exists to help others achieve their goals and dispenses wisdom to any who simply ask. I am a better speaker, a better helper, and a better person because of him. If you get a chance to see him or book him for your event, RUN, don’t walk. Get there and grow and learn and laugh. - Ken Hartley, Keynote Speaker, CSP, Illusionist, Best-Selling Author

Verified @woostercountryclub.comMr. Phipps is a true Southern Gentleman with a tremendous amount of energy, professionalism and and uncanny ability to touch everyone in the room. There was not one person that was not fully engaged in this session in some way or another. He spoke on Leadership Skills and Retention of Key People. His message was energetic, fun and extremely educational. In reviewing the evaluation comments, we received nothing but rave reviews. If fact, a number of attendees contacted me following the event just to thank me for bringing Vincent in. I have never experienced these types of positive reactions or feedback about a speaker during either term I have served on our board. I personally wanted to share our appreciation for Mr. Phipps' presentation and would highly recommend him as a future speaker or even a keynote speaker at National Conference.

Verified @coralridgecc.comA small confession on the impact of his presentation, while in the middle of his presentation, I had an enlightenment about my communication style, so much so, that during a break I wrote an apology letter to all of my Directors, my wife, and my daughter. Vincent provides life changing messages if you have the courage to look inside, take an honest assessment of yourself and are willing to do something with the new information. I enthusiastically recommend Vincent to all my friends and colleagues.

Verified @att.netI attended Vincent Phipps's three-day Professional Speakers workshop called "Pro-Speaker's Kit" or PSK in May 2022. During this time, my cohorts and I were given the tools to develop ourselves into professional speakers, not mere public speakers. As a University professor, I speak in public all the time. Mr. Vincent unpacked a phenomenal toolkit that one can use at any level of their journey to become a professional speaker. If you view every speaking opportunity as a nail, then the only tool you will ever need is a hammer. We spent three days customizing our presence as either a Keynote Speaker, Workshop Facilitator or Break-Out Session Host. At the end of the first day, I went home, completed my homework, and even dreamed about being a professional speaker. The small class size allows each participant one-on-one mini coaching sessions to prepare them to schedule their next speaking engagement. Through candidly sharing his successes and lessons learned, Vincent Phipps's PSK provided me the T.R.U.E. tools to become a professional speaker and get PAID!

Verified @cclr1902.orgI have had the pleasure of both attending and hosting events where Vincent Phipps has conducted dynamic workshops and presentations. Vincent is always “on”, providing energetic and engaging events while drawing all participants into thoughtful conversation and reflection with regard to interactions, both personal and professional. I remain amazed as to how Vincent can get a group of any size and demographics to open up and venture beyond their comfort zone. His story telling and anecdotal references flow throughout his presentation and are always lighthearted and entertaining, without losing site of the group he has tailored his workshop toward. This, and the impressive level of pre-conference research and inquiries he undertakes are the main reasons I call Vincent back to address the CMAA Razorback Chapter on a regular basis. I am a big fan of Vincent Phipps, and recommend him, without hesitation, to any organization looking to improve their communication skills, teamwork and camaraderie. Not only is he a talented speaker, but a great individual as well!
