Testimonials
If you're looking for a kind, charismatic, common sense, captivating speaker - look no further! As the co-organizer of an annual conference, I'm constantly looking for relatable speakers with relevant leadership presentations. A co-worker heard Pete speak at another event and recommended him emphatically, saying "He's entertaining and his message resonates." He is the same guy in person as he is over the phone as he is in email as he is when he's presenting. He embodies authenticity in a way that people believe the helpful information he's sharing. His genuine spirit is contagious and I had a wonderful time working with him from start to finish. If I had the resources to hire Pete multiple times a year, I would.
I highly recommend Pete Blank to come and speak for your organization! We have had Pete here at Aims Community College twice now and our employees truly enjoy him! He tailored his trainings to our current college needs and our employees walked away energized and excited to bring resources back to their positions and in turn support our students. We hope to have Pete back again for future sessions! He is a true GEM here at Aims!
Hands down, Pete is one of THE BEST facilitators I've worked with. From engaging with me on the front end of the planning to really dig into the details of the goal we hoped to achieve with his presentation to delivering a highly engaging and spot-on presentation that truly resonated with the audience, Pete provided the perfect solution to our training needs. Pete clearly did more than took the information I gave him to build/deliver his presentation. He also managed to find the time to network casually with some of our participants prior to his session (he did this in a matter of MINUTES) and incorporated some of their thoughts, comments, and concerns. This even more so made the presentation perfectly suited to this particular audience. Pete has a gift for listening to really hear what's going on and turn that into a session that pushes the audience to really consider where they have an opportunity to learn, adjust, and/or change for the better. I've been training and consulting for years and haven't come across anyone that delivers quite the way Pete does.
We had Pete speak to our entire Services team, that are located in 4 different offices and includes remote team members. Pete did a great job engaging the group he was in front of in Birmingham as well as everyone watching via Zoom. Our team heard some great stories and analogies to make them think differently, especially when dealing with difficult customers. Our Service organization is around 180 team members and we received nothing but positive feedback. I recommend Pete for any Services organization or any company looking for a fun way to remember how to put customers first.
Pete's presentation on customer satisfaction was fantastic! His ability to interrelate his knowledge of customer service with health care was outstanding. He kept a room full of health care finance leaders engaged. A great way to start off our last day of a three day conference! Our team heard some great stories and analogies to make them think differently, especially when dealing with difficult customers. Our Service organization is around 180 team members and we received nothing but positive feedback. I recommend Pete for any Services organization or any company looking for a fun way to remember how to put customers first.
We hired Pete after receiving numerous recommendations from our members. Pete exceeded all expectations which in itself is quite an accomplishment as our expectations were high. His presentation was concise, polished, and full of practical wisdom and advice. Our attendees rated Pete and his presentation as "Exceptional" and many have requested that we have Pete present again. We intend to do just that!
Pete Blank is an engaging and captivating speaker. He has the amazing ability to connect with the audience and stay connected for the duration of his presentation. We felt very lucky to have him present to us at Trenholm State Community College. Pete ranks among the very best speakers we have ever encountered.

He was invited back a second time because he received outstanding evaluation scores while providing value to our employees. Our survey responses showed a superior level of satisfaction. Our entire faculty and staff rated his presentations very good to excellent. In sum, it is a pleasure to give Pete Blank the highest recommendation as a speaker. He will deliver valuable information and analysis in an inspiring and entertaining manner. He is a dynamic speaker. I would recommend him to any group.
