Malcolm did an outstanding job at our 2012 National Conference. He built a great rapport with delegates, cleverly summarized each session, kept the day flowing and injected terrific humour throughout. The feedback has been universally positive.

Thankyou for the laughter you created for the Hyundai Team. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed your sense of humour and many have phoned to say how wonderful the night was and commented on some of your quoyes. You really helped make the night a huge success.

HYUNDAI

This was the second time Woodside has utilised Malcolm's services and he certainly did not disappoint. It was very, very clever and extremely funny: a most polished performance.

WOODSIDE

The best speaker was the loud, brash 'American' whom we fell for hook, line and sinker.

Thank you so much Malcolm for tailoring your presentation to the specific requirements of our group. The National Conference delegates founf extremely funny and entertaining - even more so once they realised it was a Hoax!

Respct the Wee folk

AuthorMalcolm Dix | DateTuesday, August 14, 2012

 

So said the wonderful Ms Aretha Franklin.

This applies especially with the shadow people we encounter every day, the people we hardly notice, pay little attention to and/or ignore (consciously or not)

Lately I've been facilitating a lot of conferences, and while most delegates are fantastic, you can guarantee that 10% of them will be an absolute pain in the arse for whatever reason.

They will disrespect the band, the bar and wait staff, ignore the tech Crew and give venue staff a hard time.


They fail to understand that everything, everyone, every event is inter connected.

So can I suggest that at your next visit to your lunch bar, cafe, when attending your next conference, dinner, awards night, whatever it is, take the time to thank the 'nobody's,' the anawin, the hidden folk.

They have more power and influence (good and bad) than you will ever know.

And yes, behind the scenes, back stage or in the greenroom, they know exactly what the deal is and trust me, word and deeds spreads fast.

So if you want your next coffee, lunch, Conference to kick arse, then take a few minutes to say thanks to the little people in the shadows.

It takes sod all time but trust me it will makes one hell of a difference.

It's time to start paying attention to the little things hidden in plain sight.


Rock on good people.

Malcolm.
