"There are many speakers and Mr. Gassert is one of the best. With his energy, wit but also profound manner he inspired our participants like no other. It is the mixture of his presentations and in a few seconds you can feel how a hall with 1,400 people is transformed into an energy field. Whoever has not heard or experienced him has missed something in his life. His impulses remain in the memory and enrich our lives."
Jochem Kehl, INLINE Unternehmensberatung

 

"Marc Gassert's presentation inspired and moved our employees with lasting effect. The energy, motivation and charisma impressed all of us and especially me personally. He was an absolute enrichment of our event and I can recommend his lecture without reservation.” 

Herbert Bockers, Vorstand, Dimension Data 

 

"With his youthful demeanor, his great qi (energy) and his very profound way of rhetoric, he captivates the audience like few people can. Even with 700 people, everyone felt personally addressed. As a keynote speaker, I can highly recommend him and have one more piece of advice: put Mr. Gassert at the end of the event - the following speakers will have a very hard time otherwise." 

Wilhelm Hakim, IFG Internationale Fortbildung GmbH
