Testimonials About Bob's Speaking Ability
► Thanks for your spectacular story Bob. The Glengarry Historical Society has seen and heard a lot of interesting speakers over the years. But never with your terrific combination of knowledge and showmanship. It was a great evening, you were a hit! The best yet! Bob Abrames was the one of the best guest speakers the society ever had. He was funny and serious and at times dazzling and wonderfully informative throughout. Rarely have we had one at once so knowledgeable and so entertaining. I recommend Bob without reservation.
Dane Lanken, Past-President - Glengarry Historical Society

► Bob Abrames was a huge hit. It was the right type of speaker to wrap up a long day. His focus on leadership was extremely relevant and his content and delivery was refreshing and entertaining. Needless to say he was a positive discussion point at the reception that evening. I have seen many speakers over the years some effective some not. Bob was exactly a perfect fit for our theme, content, and audience.
