We were thrilled to have Patrick Perez as the guest speaker for our All-Employee ERG Summit, and his presentation "Rhythm of Resilience" was nothing short of phenomenal. Patrick's energy was infectious, and his ability to engage and motivate our employees was truly remarkable. The feedback from McKesson employees has been overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing how much they enjoyed and benefited from his segment.
Patrick had everyone dancing, including those who were watching from the watch parties and those watching virtually from home. His dynamic approach and insightful messages resonated deeply with our team, leaving a lasting impression that will undoubtedly inspire us moving forward. His unique blend of enthusiasm and practical wisdom made the session both enjoyable and impactful.
We highly recommend booking Patrick Perez for any event. His talent for connecting with audiences and delivering powerful, motivating content ensures that you will not be disappointed. Thank you, Patrick, for contributing to the success of ourAll-Employee ERG Summit!
Business Motivational Speaker
As a third-party planner, I first hired Patrick in 2013, and I continued to work with him on teen events including conferences, advocacy events and team-building retreats. Whether he was in front of an audience of 500 or 12, Patrick delivered an energetic and engaging audience experience. He received excellent feedback from both teens and their adult program leaders, plus my clients were consistently happy with his performance. Patrick is versatile often filling roles as keynote, emcee and youth leader. He has great program content and never hesitates to integrate this with event-specific topics and messages. If you’re planning a youth event, I cannot recommend Patrick enough! He’s easy to work with, brings a high level of energy and excels at motivating youth.

Raze has been working with Patrick for many years. He is a fantastic youth speaker. Kids love him and are always excited to see him at our tobacco prevention events. He is quick to engage with the youth and always knowledgeable about our topics. He keeps the energy level high! Our staff has complete confidence in Patrick and can relax at events, knowing that he can manage any situation that comes with having a large group or conference full of teens.
Leadership/Success Speaker, Motivational Speaker
Patrick has spoken at many youth tobacco prevention events for the American Lung Association. Most recently for PA, he was our main speaker for our advocacy day event. Patrick is always very knowledgeable in the topics we request him to speak about (such as Tobacco 21, being a leader, working together, etc.) and the students always love him!! At every event/activity, he gets the students energized and motivated. Not only that, but he's so great to work with! He can work with a plan but is also AMAZING at improvising (not to mention a great dancer)! Would recommend him to anyone, 100%.
Leadership/Success Speaker, Motivational Speaker
Patrick has spoken at our summer extended orientation event for the past 3 years and he never disappoints! He has a way to energize groups and get them on their feet and generate tremendous participation. I recommend him highly and would tell you not to hesitate in booking him for your school or organization. He is flexible at incorporating your event agenda and working with whatever time frame you give him. I look forward to bring him back next year.

Patrick is great! He is motivational, inspiring, and an all around awesome guy! He spoke to a group of high school students at the 2014 Key Club Convention in Natchez, MS. It would not have been the same without him! Thanks for all your hard work Patrick :)

What to Expect
Imagine your audience up and moving, laughing and being fully focused on this one-of-a-kind experience!
From the time he hits the stage until the last beat of music, Patrick brings a force of energy that leaves audiences buzzing! One comment event planners say over and over again is, "Patrick HAS SO MUCH ENERGY!"
Patrick is as turn-key as speakers come; once you reach out to him or his team you will be know that you are in good hands. From booking his own travel to arriving on site for sound checks, Patrick knows that you have a lot on your plate already; he wants to ensure that your event is a success and will work alongside you to make things go as smoothly as possible.
From keynoting conferences with 6000 attendees to hosting tuxedo galas with international VPs, Patrick brings a level of professionalism and "down-to-earth" approachability that helps win over audiences and event planners. As a keynote speaker Patrick loves to have interaction both on stage and off stage. Volunteers love being part of the show with Patrick and often times have their own personal mental breakthroughs just by sharing the stage with Patrick.
Patrick believes in inclusivity and uses technology to allow those in the crowd to still voice their thoughts and input via live-stream text during his programs. Working alongside Patrick will ensure your company and brand are protected and aligned with a true representation of your core values.
Rest assured your audience will feel a jolt of caffeinated motivation, inspiration and engagement as they take part in an introspective and interpersonal approach to leadership through resilience!

Additional Booking Notes
Logistics and Intro
The following audio/visual and staging requests are designed to enhance the
audience's enjoyment of Patrick's program. The best speech can be undermined
by equipment or room setup problems, so please discuss any changes in the
room and audio/visual setup with us beforehand.
Keynote
Microphone: Wireless handheld preferred or a regular ground mic with at least
50’ of cord
1 chair
Audio: Patrick uses a variety of music for his keynote and workshop presentations.
Patrick will require an audio visual system with VGA or HDMI input capability with
RCA cables or headphone style connection set up in the area of the assembly. It is suggested that larger events that have a sound technician have Patrick talk directly to that person.
Visual: Patrick’s programs utilize visual media to convey video and images that pertain to his message. Please have visual media such as a projector, screen or LCD screen. The visual media greatly enhances Patrick’s presentations and helps better engage the audience.
Cell Phones: While certain groups may prohibit the use of cell phones during the events, Patrick encourages their use as a medium to connect with the audience. During the program audience members have the opportunity to respond directly via text or messenger to questions posed by Patrick. This has been done with a great measure of success at both small workshops as well as large conferences.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++ATTENTION+++++++++++++++++++++
If your venue is adjacent to rooms with other programs going on at the
same time please be advised that Patrick’s music is loud and bumping!
This has caused some challenges in the past. Please plan accordingly. Live
loud. Play louder!
Lighting: A bright, well-lit room will enhance the energy levels.
Flooring: Please ensure that the floor is free of debris and obstructions (a good sweeping always does the trick), and the dimensions are at least 16’ x 16’. Carpet and concrete are not favorable locations. Non-slippery floors strongly encouraged.
Audience set-up: If the assembly is to be held in the gymnasium please keep all
students to one side of the gym and together. Should your campus have a large
number of students it is okay to have students on the floor and on the sides of
gym as long as there are no students behind Patrick. Teachers must sit with
the students even if your students are golden angels who feed the
homeless, care for orphans and nurse sick unicorns back to health (it cuts
down on mischievous behavior).
Recording: Should audio/video taping NOT BE ALLOWED please let us know PRIOR to your event. Should your event be doing in-house taping we do request a copy for our records and marketing purposes.
Volunteers: Each program will entail the use of several volunteers from the
audience. It is up to the client’s discretion whether or not volunteers are to be
pre-selected. Patrick prefers to select audience members at random.
Water: A dry mouth is a speaker’s worst enemy. 2 bottles of water.
Resource table: If your organization would like to have additional resources available for participants to purchase after the event, please let Patrick know. The books and additional resources can be of value to your students and staff. If you intend on making the resources available for purchase, please have a 5’X8’ table available after the performance. You may wish to let the participants know that Patrick will have products for sale, so that they may plan accordingly.
Breakthrough Workshop
Dry erase board: or flip chart with markers
Setup: Wide open space so students can move around, run, team-build, etc.
Mic: Handheld preferred.
Audio: Same as above
Patrick will go over layout with you as different size groups take on a different layout.
Visual: Same as above.
