More than a great story teller, Jason is a genuine human being. He knows what he values, and he's able to articulate these values through an authentic and transparent communication style which quickly connects with his audience. He's relatable. People immediately feel comfortable listening to him. Jason is entertaining and can easily laugh at himself. Yet at the same time, his knowledge, professionalism, and ability clearly shine through. I think people enjoy and respect that. With Jason, you are getting so much more than a great speaker! He is able to set a great example for others without focusing too much on himself. He is reliable and hard-working. Whether it's for a live televised sporting event, or a speaking engagement among colleagues, he will relentlessly prepare for success - and this is repeatedly shown in his work. Jason is a man true to his word and his values, who consistently leaves his audience feeling inspired, entertained, and empowered.

As a summer camp director, one of my biggest challenges is finding the right speakers to who are able to effectively communicate to a staff of primarily high school and college age individuals. Jason was able to engage my team, have them laughing, participating, and genuinely enjoying staff training. His topic were perfect for my audience, and it was clear that his message made an impact. We would welcome Jason Benetti back as a speaker any day.

Jason Benetti made a powerful, positive and uplifting presentation to about 200 people at the closing session of the Cerebral Palsy Associations of New York State Annual Conference. He used humor and personal anecdotes to convey how he uses his ability as a broadcaster to change how his audience perceives people with disabilities. Jason is a talented and successful sportscaster. He is able to make people forget about the disability and accept the man and his abilities. His message to others is to embrace their abilities and refuse to let others label or limit them simply because they do not fit easily into a preconceived expectation.

I am writing this reference on behalf of Jason Benetti who was a guest speaker at our Paralympic Sport Tampa Bay "Imagine the Pasta-bilities" Fundraiser last year. He spoke in front of 250 athletes with disabilities, coaches, family, friends and sponsors. Jason has an outstanding speaking voice, is charming, witty, and his zest for life comes through in his presentation. He demonstrates a high level of energy, enhanced by many personal anecdotes as he follows his life's dream and passion. Jason is the best motivational speaker we have had in the five (5) years we have presented this event.He would make an excellent guest speaker for any program.
