Aaron did his homework and customized his presentation to be relevant to the banking industry and to my company specifically.  His understanding of and discussion around the Millennial generation is critical knowledge for every company and manager in today’s workplace.  Aaron’s presentation style is relaxed and confident, which allowed him to really engage with the audience individually and as a group.  Aaron was a true pleasure to work with, start to finish.

As a professional speaker and workshop facilitator myself, I take a much more critical and unique view of speakers I hire for events. I have found few that can top Aaron McDaniel. His topic around hiring, coaching and nurturing millennial talent is most timely and he executes on stage with style and grace. From the initial meeting to his post-session follow up, Aaron is world class. He beats deadlines and provides outstanding and easy to understand materials that are customized to the audience. In front of the group he provides practical insights. He knows his subject inside and out. He lands relevant stories into the lives of the audience. He does it all with humor and an easy to listen style that keeps people engaged regardless of age. If you are looking for someone to discuss how to blend millennials into the workplace, hire Aaron McDaniel, hire him now.
— Jack Hubbard, Chairman & Chief Sales Officer, St. Meyer & Hubbard
Aaron was very collaborative in preparing his keynote for our agency conference. He stayed in touch in the months leading up to his session and interviewed a few key stakeholders in advance to customize his remarks. He was very professional and personable, and his presentation was engaging and informative. If you’re looking for someone who knows the Millennial generation well and brings a lot of enthusiasm to a presentation, Aaron is a strong choice.

In his session “Redefining Age in the Workplace: Diversity is More Than Just Ethnicity and Gender,” Aaron McDaniel provided workable solutions... Participants learned tips that would be beneficial throughout their careers. McDaniel helped them understand the importance of being patient, stepping outside their comfort zones, making careful decisions and being open to career coaching. Attendees also left with a clear understanding of the value of collaboration among different generations in the workplace. In his session, McDaniel inspired millennials to become engaged and empowered to succeed and helped prepare them to lead those who will eventually follow in their footsteps.
— Sheron Rose, Vice President, Montgomery Area Chamber of Commerce
