She was a joy to work with! She responded timely to all communications, was flexible during the planning stages, and developed a custom topic for her keynote address that fit the goals of our conference. The tagline she shared resonated with the youth and was continually brought up throughout the rest of the conference. Anne's enthusiasm and kindness were contagious! Her upbeat attitude and genuine personality engaged the youth as well as the hands-on presentation activities encouraged audience participation. If you are looking for a dynamic, motivating, fantastic human being, you should hire Ms. Anne Bonney for your next event.
Anne provided practical tips on Online presentations at a time it was really needed.
The energy and enthusiasm Anne brought to our event was infectious. Her tips for igniting the courage to connect with others were tangible, and her keynote was woven with hilarious stories about her own experiences connecting. She went the extra mile to meet with our panelists ahead of the event, hear their stories, and facilitate a thoughtful, entertaining, discussion.
Anne presented Coaching Tips and Techniques to a group of high level leaders who coach up-and-coming frontline leaders. Anne was so professional to work with. She has a way of putting everyone at ease with her humor, listening skills and powerful message. The group of about 30 were blown away by the fact that she memorized every person's name after just hearing them introduce themselves once. The experience was engaging and highly interactive. I would highly recommend Anne.
Anne is a motivator, an energizer, a coach and a teacher - the kind of speaker that you cannot ignore. Her anecdotal affectation makes Anne super relatable. She is charismatic and fun, yet tough-love and all business at just the right times. Anne is much like a Punk-Rock Mary Poppins; floating around, imparting her wisdom where and when it is needed, then floating away, with the lesson, "what I was REALLY teaching you all along was how to do it yourself." And we could all use some real-life Mary Poppins.
Anne Bonney is without a doubt one of the most engaging and inspiring speakers I've listened to. Her ability to understand the needs of her audience is remarkable. She commands the stage and orchestrates the ebb and flow of the presentation for maximum effect. I highly recommend Anne for corporate functions, youth development conferences and as a motivational speaker. If Anne can't get your audience on their feet, well, they must be dead or boring.
Engaging, inspiring, raw and tenacious. Anne Bonney is classy and a little bit edgy, motivational and relatable. Her presentations (which I’ve hired her more than once) are empowering and refreshing. You just wanna be her friend!
Anne has been our Master of Ceremonies at three of our transformational Breaking My Boundaries - Women's Empowerment Conferences! The role fit like a glove - she is dynamic, engaging, funny, intelligent, flexible, relatable, and thinks quickly on her feet. She was the glue that held our day together! Highly recommend Anne and look forward to partnering with her on future projects!
Eclectic, just damn fun to be around, positive energy, a downright breadth of life experience, offbeat humor. Ya gotta have this gal speak to your group or facilitate your sessions - she's a gem! I've worked with Anne for 3+ years in her colleague role on the staff of the Rotary District 6290 Life Leadership Conference and we're just blessed to have her skills interacting with large groups of youth and keeping things REAL!
WOW! So energetic and fun!
Anne was even better than advertised! Her stories are worldly and relevant, and she had our group laughing and engaged the whole time. I can't wait to hear her again.
Anne provides engagement, education, and inspiration! Her speaking style kept our audience engaged (and having fun!) from the very beginning to the very end of her presentation. Highly recommended!
