“I didn’t know they were capable of this.”

“I’ve never seen them so attentive.”

 – Cheryl H., teacher

Mark has received high praise from some very high profile guests.  “You’re really good at this.  Your questions are unusually insightful,” said Scott Adams, famous cartoonist, multiple best-selling author and massive influencer.   “The conversation was most cordial—unusual and not what I’m used to” was the compliment given from The Amazing Lucas and and “You’re very perceptive” came from none other than John McAfee, inventor of antivirus, and controversial millionaire presidential candidate.

Mark Bradford uses these honed conversational skills in his talks, which are more interactive and intimate than one would expect from someone on stage.  His skills show, and his audience engagement creates a memorable, thought-provoking learning experience for his attendees. 

These talks are applicable to high school and college level, but can also be enjoyed by most audiences.  Talks are typically engineered to be about an hour, with audience interaction.
