Glen worked with our organization to develop custom solutions that allowed adaptation of his expertise to our culture. After delivering over 100 sessions for our organization, and receiving excellent feedback from our participants we know that because of his training our business will have better and more fruitful discussions on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Glen and his team were incredible partners to work with as we set our sights on training over 500 people in the span of 9 months, and that ease translated to the classroom.

Verified @hbma.orgGlen also stood out to us with his Certified Virtual Presenter credential. As an organization making a pivot to a virtual event for the first time due to COVID-19, having an experienced virtual presenter for this topic was extremely important to us. Glen is one of the most engaging virtual speakers that I have seen and is completely deserving of the designation. He incorporated a wide variety of techniques, including the use of music, polls, audience participation, and more. The hour went by in a flash and everyone was engaged throughout the program. I would also like to include a few specific quotes from our session evaluation here: - Hands down the #1 presenter of the conference. High energy level. Held my attention. Subject matter was awesome, relevant and timely - Great tools and take home messages. Things we can viably incorporate in our personal and professional lives - Presentation was excellent! Content and examples and communication with audience was great. Working with Glen was one of the best decisions that we made for our virtual conference. If you are seeking an engaging speaker on diversity and inclusion, especially in the virtual space, I highly encourage you to look closely at Glen Guyton.

Verified @hesston.eduFew speakers can truly bridge all age groups and I see Glen as one of those who is able to do this with ease. I have seen high school age students laugh out loud at his jokes and energized style. I have seen adults appreciate his genuine challenges and dig into the Word as they follow his message.

Verified @gmail.comGlen has worked toward developing diversity and promote inclusion in many life areas for over twenty years. His dynamism is unmatched in spaces where youth and young adults are developing. He entreats his audience to consider all parts of a scenario--I remember, "don't pack more than you can carry"--it's not just about strength. This statement I'm able to employ in my own clinical practice with many clients no matter their background.
