AT&T
It was a pleasure seeing you again and have the opportunity to work directly with you on our last Leadership Conference. I can truly say that our meeting was a success. Your presentation was not only entertaining, but also informative and educational.
The comments and excellent ratings that you have received on our feedback forms are confirmation of the great job you did. Their comments were also a reminder that you were the light at the end of a rather intense meeting. The best measure of your impact on our group was the overwhelming standing ovation you received at the end of your presentation. Jim as an attendee I really enjoyed your presentation, and as a meeting planner, that applause sounded good to me!
What a hit you were. Your presentation on humor was the perfect way to end the Software Marketing College. Feedback from your session was very positive, and the evaluations had one of the highest ratings of the college. The overall rating of your session was 1.24 (1 = Very Satisfied, 5 = Very Dissatisfied)
Wow!!!! Truly everyone enjoyed your presentation . . . Did you get a personal insight into what’s going on in the industry? How could you possibly have picked up on the fact that changes in distribution are probably the industry’s primary concern right now? Jim, many thanks for a fantastic job. Your on my short list for a return presentation.
You taught members of our industry a needed lesson on how to bring humor in the work place and how to laugh with others! I know some will benefit a great deal. It’s about time some learned that life can be fun-filled with a good attitude.

Thank you for entertaining our Cast Members during a rare afternoon off. You have caused all of us to attack our jobs with renewed vigor and energy. Please know that you delivered a simple, applicable message to our group that was very well received.
I cannot tell you how many of our Cast Members have stopped me in the hall to say thank you. Most of the comments revolve around how they have personally changed for the better. Such as:
“Jim made me think differently and gave me an overdue attitude adjustment.”
“Who was that guy? He talked about real things that are happening to us now! How did he know what we’re struggling with?”
My only wish is that you could speak to all 14,000 of us at once someday.
I wanted to take a moment and personally thank you for helping make the Downey Savings Managers’ Conference a huge success!
Some of our managers remarked that you were “Fantastic,” “Wonderful” and “Superb.” Many mangers relayed to me that “Jim Pelley was good entertainment” and “Pelley’s presentation tied well with our industry topics.” Other comments ranged from “Funny” to “Helpful” to “EXCELLENT”!! We all thought that your message was very positive and enjoyed the emphasis placed on FUN!
Needless to say, you were a BIG hit with our managers!
I can’t thank you enough for your witty, humorous, mildly irreverent (yet incredibly insightful and motivational) presentation at the Clean Air Awards Luncheon. Your willingness to spend a significant amount of time with us shooting the video and learning about air quality issues speaks to your penchant for professionalism and your commitment to your craft.
Many folks have told me that this was the best Awards Luncheon the Lung Association has ever produced (and that encompasses 21 previous luncheons). What more can I say?

I wanted to take this time to let you know that over the years Laughter Works Seminars has “made a difference” with my group here at Intel Corporation. Doing special upfront customization in our material, developing around our themes to enhance our marketing messages has made our classes #1! Another important factor you have brought to us is that humor can and should be in the workplace. I look forward to working with you again in the near future.
You presentation was terrific. The audience loved you and the evaluations showed you were the most popular speaker at the conference.
Thanks again for speaking to our group and making us all laugh. The feedback from your session was GREAT!
Thanks so much!
I was impressed by your advance work in getting to know our organization and in how you delivered a personalized presentation incorporating the tools and skills needed to cope with today’s fast-paced business environment.
Your ideas fit right in with our theme of: Mission Possible.

Thank you very much for such an OUTSTANDING presentation last Friday. It was a refreshing break to be so well entertained while learning the practical value of a more humorous perspective on life.
The group has been raving about how much they enjoyed you and how your humorous stories have already helped them cope with very stressful situations. The design group was more excited and appreciative than I have ever seen them.
It was really a pleasure to meet you and have the opportunity to work with you. Thanks again for a great job!
…I have heard nothing but rave reviews about you and your great talk. Everyone enjoyed it immensely.
You were the hit of the conference with your program on “Embrace Risk, Manage Change, & Laugh Often”! It was one of the most entertaining and funny keynote presentations I have ever had the pleasure of attending. Your use of humor was well received, and extremely effective in presenting your message on managing change.
I would recommend your presentation to any organization or group looking for and entertaining and enlightening look at today’s business challenges.
