Testimonials for Jonathan MacDonald
“Jonathan did a fantastic job at the Tesco Mobile event last Thursday. I got some great feedback from the team who found him to be inspirational, engaging and extremely interesting. He’d tailored his presentation really well and he was extremely knowledgeable and a huge asset to the agenda. Thanks for recommending him. We think he’s absolutely brilliant.”
From the Head of PR, Tesco Mobile
“You made a great impression on us. With a risk of telling you what you already know; you have an absolute world class, unique talent combining vision, strategy and challenge which, based on your lovely sense of humour, is incredibly effective to open minds. Thank you.”
CEO of Ikea of Sweden
“We brought Jonathan in to help our senior team understand how we were going to achieve more relevance in our customers’ lives going forward. Primarily, he helped us to understand the business that we are today and the business that we’re going to be in the future. I would absolutely recommend Jonathan to any company in any industry. His insight is invaluable.”
Jonathan Earle, Head of Customer Strategy – O2 Telefonica
“We challenged Jonathan to be the final speaker at our conference on digitising the construction industry, a sector that is not known for its rapid adoption of technology. As well as reinforcing and driving home the underlying theme of the day, he thoroughly entertained and educated the audience on digital and disruption and gave us a number of ‘laugh out loud’ moments. His messaging was clear and unambiguous, and was delivered in a challenging but non-threatening way. A great way to end the day.”
Richard Waterhouse, Chief Executive, NBS
“It was a brilliant session and it was really clear that the audience was engaged throughout. As well as learning from the amazing content, I know I’ve also picked up some tips on how to deliver an impactful presentation from an absolute expert.”
Esther Basra, Marketing Training Manager, Tesco plc
“We invited Jonathan to speak at our Annual Conference after seeing him present previously at another hotel industry event. He did not disappoint! His presentation was engaging, interesting, entertaining and filled with anecdotes that were relevant to our industry. We would gladly work with Jonathan again.”
Geoff Andrew, CEO, Worldhotels
“Having Jonathan as a keynote speaker at our event turned out to be a recipe for success. He challenged, inspired and entertained the audience with his strong message, relevant industry examples and anecdotal quotes and stories. Jonathan’s speaking style and message fitted in perfectly with the theme and atmosphere of the event.”
Key Retail Account Manager, Google
“Jonathan was very well-received by the audience. I am often disappointed by our paid speakers and don’t feel like we got our money’s worth, but I didn’t feel that way at all with Jonathan. I was particularly pleased with the way he tailored the message to the location and audience, and how he spoke in an insightful way to the industry without trying to portray himself as an expert.”
