Anthony Bourke

Major Anthony “AB” Bourke’s presentation to our marketing sales force was one of the mosteffective and inspiring we have had to date.  Getting the ultimate insider’s view of how fighter pilots hone their performance (because mistakes or sub-standard performance are not an option) had our audience spellbound.  Their “brief” and “debrief” concepts have become a standard operating procedure for our teams and have aided in improving our performance by a large measure.  We would heartily recommend Major Anthony “AB” Bourke to appear before any group that is looking to be inspired and galvanized to perform at the optimum level every day.

“AB, we have contracted many consultants and dynamic presenters over the years, but let me say, your work, with the “mission objective” assigned, was the best I’ve ever personally experienced. While I could go on and an, let me close by simply saying “great job,” and we are looking forward to pursuing some additional special project work with you shortly, in some of our more challenging markets.”     

“You were a huge hit at OPCON! Very applicable and timely. I had countless people come up to me throughout the day Wednesday and compliment on your presentation. It was really fantastic”

“Once again, please accept my thanks for participating in the ADT National Account Sales Kickoff Meeting. As you know we tend to be a high-energy group and it’s not often a speaker or a program really lights a fire under us but you did just that last week in Las Vegas. Your high energy, fact filled program resonated in a very positive way with the ADT National Account sales organization.”

“I was blown away by the excellent presentation. As we are combing through the evaluations, I am not alone in saying that the experience was awesome.”

“Thanks again for providing us a World Class Speech at our PCS Annual Conference. Your message was a perfect fit for our group and our theme. Most importantly the term “Debrief” is the new buzzword at Russell as we continue to “Come Together” and focus on always doing the right thing for our clients, our associates and our investors. I commend you on your hard work up front, learning our business and our language. You seamlessly wove our themes and verbiage into your presentation and this was noted by all who attended.”

“You were the highest rated speaker at our conference!”

“Thank you for your work over the last several months. Finally seeing your session come to fruition was terrific. The early anecdotal feedback is very positive, as is the feedback for the overall meeting. So, my immediate reaction is SUCCESS!”

“Thanks again for all of your great work this past week.  I have gotten nothing but incredible positive feedback – you made quite an impression!  I can also tell you that people referred to your presentation throughout the remainder of the sessions, and people are starting to adapt the briefing and de-briefing mentality.”

“Interactive presentations are the top educational events and AB’s was one of the best I have seen – a “10” definitely! His experience as a fighter pilot and the ability to transfer the same skills to leaders is fantastic! They came away understanding the importance of making the right split second decisions as a leader and the resulting impact on their teams. Chapters should sign AB up now for an exciting and dynamic flight lesson!”

“AB, your speech and brief/debrief were extremely well received by the Partner team and fitted in perfectly with our conference theme.  I’m hoping many Partners adopt this approach with their teams so that they become more engaged, aligned and continue to learn and develop.”
