“You took the near impossible task I gave you and parlayed it into the best program my group has ever seen. I knew this could be a hard crowd to please, but you had them at hello! It was a resounding success, as evidenced by the enthusiastic standing ovation at the conclusion. We are all still talking about your perfect keynote!”
