What People Are Saying About Steve Martin
“(The POP was) a great success! Steve Martin did a excellent job wrapping the principles into the ‘Teva’ world. Our representatives left not only with new information, but ways to apply it immediately. I had very high expectations based on the previous POP I attended, however Steve delivered much more than I expected.”
- Charles Gurera, Technical Training Manager, Teva Neuroscience
"He does for business what MTV unplugged did for Rock Music, bringing it back to core competencies and basics. (They) are badly needed." - Barry J Gibbons, Former World-wide CEO Burger King Corp and Fortune Magazine's 1995 turnaround champ.
"The presentation was lively and informative, the one on one consultation with individuals was insightful and directive, and the commitment to our plan by each of the Cialdini consultants was considerable." - Jan McKenzie, The Weather Channel

Shell Global Solutions International BV "Thank you for the great Principles of Persuasion Seminar that you held for us in GE Money Home Lending last Thursday and Friday, really enjoyed it. It is amazing to find out just how little we know and how much we already had available to make our campaigns and messages better." - Margaret Nastasha Nolan. GE Money Home Lending, Marketing Communications Executive
"FYI, I was one of your attendees in a session last month. I really wanted to send you a quick note to say thank you. I know I thanked you on the day, but having stepped out of classroom over 3 weeks ago I've really taken onboard reciprocity. It's so easy to do and the other parties are so willing to oblige. I hadn't recognised how often people say thank you to me every day, but having done the course I look out for it and pounce (responsibly, of course). Thank you for your efforts." - Marc Garrett, Business Development Manager, GE Home Lending
