“Thank you Brent for attending our FOCUS event yesterday. You inspired me, you inspired my team, and you inspired my clients & colleagues. Your talk moved us in so many ways, including laughter and tears, which I think is a very powerful thing. The great Jim Valvano said “if you laugh, if you think and if you cry, that’s a full day.” Well the hour you spent with us made us do all three, so I think it was a full day and made it a great day. I know I took away so many things that I can use in my day to day activities with my team to make us better and make me a better leader. It was such a pleasure to meet you and was an absolute honor to get to introduce you on stage. I thank you again for spending some time with us in little Sioux Falls, SD and I sincerely thank you again for your service. I hope our paths cross again my friend. All the best!”
