I took a leap of faith in contracting with Nancy Noonan as a keynote speaker because I had no prior experience in hearing her speak. That was one leap I will never regret. Nancy interacted with our membership prior to her presentation and was able to get a good feel for what we needed, not using a canned message. Our membership has recently been faced with many challenges; they found Nancy to be very uplifting, energizing, articulate and real; and her content thought provoking, motivating and very useful. I strongly recommend Nancy––you won’t be disappointed.
