Here's what a sampling of her satisfied clients have said about her presentations:

"What a way to start a conference!  Our leadership wanted a high-energy, high-impact presentation to kick-off our 3-day event and Bridgett McGowen delivered!  The audience was engaged and responsive, even on their feet and speaking to each other – which I thought a speaker could not make happen.  Bridgett was easy to work with through contracting and payment and was responsive to questions throughout the process.  She even initiated a pre-conference meeting to discuss our group and our event so she could customize her presentation as much as possible for us.  Thank you, Bridgett, for your humor, knowledge and expert delivery – well-done!"  --Bill N., APEX

"We brought in Bridgett to kick off our annual company conference and she brought the energy and gave the team practical takeaways that helped shape the experience at our two-day conference but will help all of us going into the next year. Highly recommend her as a speaker!" --Dan J., Madden Media

"Bridgett is a dynamic and inspiring speaker and leader. She shares real world, practical counsel on how to communicate effectively and build stronger teams. She opened up a new level of thinking for our team, resulting in self reflection and deeper connections. Her energy drives the discussion ... it comes through powerfully, even on Zoom. Her content and delivery are transformational. Bridgett sets the standard for professional development." --Julie C., Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)

"Wow! Working with Bridgett was an awesome experience! Our organization partnered with Bridgett to host a keynote on inspiring others and gaining leader followership....we were blown away! Bridgett is high energy, funny, engaging, and sends an impactful message. It is not just the 'same old stuff' when it comes to keynote speakers, she brought in new and enlightening content that even our C-Suite walked away with new insights! Several leaders have shared this was their favorite leadership development opportunity yet!  ... [F]rom a partnership standpoint, Bridgett was easy to work with, flexible, supportive, and a great listener. Looking forward to having her back for future endeavors! --Demi B., Together Credit Union
