Danny Makkelie exceeded our expectations with his presentation! He made sure his stories connected to our industry and our team, which made the presentation very relevant. His professionalism and charisma kept the audience captivated. We are very pleased with his contribution and highly recommend him as a speaker for corporate events.

His use of impressive video and audio clips where Danny had to make crucial decisions as a referee kept us glued to the screen. We could easily empathize with the pressure and responsibility he experienced as a referee and immediately saw the similarities as a manager.

Danny spoke about the importance of effective communication and team trust. Sharing his experiences as a referee and police officer, he confirmed how important it is to gain and maintain the trust of your team. He emphasized that accepting mistakes and supporting each other is essential for a cohesive and efficient team, especially in situations where every second counts.

What a great speaker. For our sponsor evening at the soccer club we were allowed to host Danny. Very blank we went into the evening. But what a good energy. Beautiful inspiring stories. A look through the "ears" of Danny and his team. Not to mention the perfect interaction with our audience. In 1 word great.

Danny spoke before a group of about 60 people, and we received nothing but positive and enthusiastic responses to his performance. What made this so special? Danny has a natural talent for speaking in front of a group and creating interaction. He switches effortlessly between a personal story and supporting visuals, such as a video that reinforces his message. He actively engages his audience by asking and responding to questions. Danny exudes calm, both on and off stage. Before and after his performance, he mingled with the audience in a relaxed manner. We perhaps had the advantage that he knows the police organization well, so he was able to make wonderful connections between his work and ours. But honestly, I think he could do this effortlessly at any organization. And that's what makes him so interesting. His story does not stand alone; you recognize your own dilemmas in it and pick up new insights that are applicable in your own field of work. (via E-mail)

Danny was an absolute star at the event in Amsterdam. His presentation was the best rated session of the entire two-day event! He brought tremendous energy, insights and inspiration, and completely captivated the audience - even those without any interest in soccer. Many participants reported that he gave them a new perspective and increased their empathy for his field. His passion and expertise made a deep impression and his presentation was widely praised. Even within Google, I shared his work with colleagues hosting similar events. I would without a doubt recommend him to anyone looking for an inspiring and compelling speaker! (via E-mail)

During our Easter drinks party, Danny gave a lecture. This was a great success and we received only rave reviews from our guests. Danny a sociable and approachable person who also takes the time after his lecture to talk with the guests present. As far as we are concerned, it was a great addition to our program and we will definitely invite it again.
