Testimonials

Cisco’s global audience of over 3000 people were hanging on John’s every word.  He is a masterful speaker, who conveys his story with humility and inspiration.  After many years of choosing keynote speakers for events, I can truly say that John is the best we have ever hired or that I have ever seen. 

Wendy BahrSenior Vice President, Global Partner Organization at Cisco

John’s story on facing and conquering adversity as an incomplete paraplegic, to achieve astonishing physical and mental feats, both amazes and inspires me. His approach to embracing change, not fearing it, resonates with me.

Steven WorrallMANAGING DIRECTOR AT MICROSOFT AUSTRALIA

The impact that John Maclean had on our company was unlike anything I’ve ever witnessed. I’ve been fortunate enough to attend to many “guest speaker” events through my career - John topped them all. His humility coupled with his motivating and poignant story-telling was fantastic. And his message of balance, optimism, challenging yourself and your perceived limits couldn’t have been more in-line with the type of spirit, life approach and thoughtfulness that we’re trying to instill across our company. Everyone was both deeply moved, but also was immediately translating and applying his message to the personal and business changes that they would be making.

Doug MerrittPRESIDENT & CEO AT SPLUNK

For the last 10 years we've hosted some of the world's most compelling TED speakers at our annual customer solutions summit, but we can say without reservation that John Maclean is by far the single most impactful presenter we have ever hosted. John's story is obviously amazing and inspiring, but it is the sincere and deliberate way that he engages with your audience after that fact that makes the difference. He created long term connections with our people and our customers that are still being talked about, daily.

Paul GiobbiPresident of Zumasys Inc

I came across John Maclean's book one summer and couldn't put it down. Inspired by his story, we invited him to speak at our annual Partner Conference. Three weeks on - we're all still talking about it! 

Mark AverillCEO PwC NZ

John is the most inspirational speaker that I have seen. That is saying a lot considering the 100s of professional speakers I have been exposed to. His story is amazing, delivery flawless and his resonating connection with every one of our team members will remain forever. We as a leadership team have never had so much positive feedback about an outside speaker. Inviting John to speak to your team will be one of the most significant things you do for your team.

Radek Sali, Chief Executive Officer SWISSE WELLNESS PTY LTD

I cannot recommend John highly enough for any conference or motivational appearance. He would be the best speaker I have ever heard (and I have heard dozens). Not only is his international standard story inspirational it also has practical messages that can translate into any business. He makes you proud to be an Australian. You would be mad to look past John for any conference or event.

Janine AllisFOUNDER OF BOOST JUICE BARS
