Larry was a fantastic speaker who would be warmly welcomed again! The Southwest Tennessee School Nutrition managers in attendance enjoyed the humor, teamwork tips, and personalized message that he shared, especially made even more relevant because Larry’s mother’s was a school nutrition employee for many years. Not only did he present well, he was flexible, accommodating, and very easy to work with prior to our event. Communication was always prompt, professional, and friendly. Booking was a breeze and the promotional materials provided were easy to utilize for participants. Larry’s positive personality and presentation were a great way to kick off our school year!
Larry was a wonderful speaker to have for the start of our school year. I received several comments from teachers thanking me for bringing in an awesome speaker this year. He was very funny with a great message for our staff.
Larry Weaver was the ultimate professional when handling the arrangements of the event and keeping me informed of his plans and intentions as we moved closer to the date of the event. The performance was engaging, informational, captivating and most of all, funny. His stories, his approach and his connection to our school staff audience were exactly what we were looking for in a guest speaker.
Our Welcome Back Convocation is how we launch each new school year. Over 1100 faculty and staff gather to get motivated to welcome back our students, celebrate achievements, and fellowship with each other. Larry Weaver helped make our August convocation become one of the most memorable in the 31 years we have held the event! After an exhaustive, months long search, our leadership team decided to invite Larry to be a presenter at our gathering; he didn’t disappoint. Larry was easy to work with and responsive to communication, and his performance on stage was wonderful. It was packed with audience-appropriate comedy that kept us laughing! Our team loved Larry’s jokes that tied in perfectly with his message of positivity.
