Al's one of the best I've ever heard. A great speaker for your next meeting. They'll be talking about him for months to come!

Because of his commitment to learning and his passion for teaching I have made Al one of my very first Psychology of Persuasion™ licensees. The fact that Al has utilized the principles and techniques of a master persuader to climb the ladder of greatness enables him to lead the Psychology of Persuasion™ seminar in a very effective and personal manner.

Kevin Hogan, 
Author of The Psychology of Persuasion and The Science of Influence

“When it comes to expertise on the subjects such as Emotional Intelligence and Communication Al Duncan should be considered one of the best.  After meeting Al maybe 2 years ago and having daily discussions on different topics, my life will never be the same.  Al is consistently inspiring me to expand my knowledge through questions and quotes.  A couple of weeks ago at his Magic of Exceptional Communication seminar I had a question concerning me being overly obsessed with my work or being too emotionally involved.  The answer that Al empowered me with has totally changed my approach to my work.  Since that conversation I'm able to balance work and personal activities much better.  In another situation where I just felt like my business was not expanding exactly how I wanted it to Al gave me a simple formula, which has almost doubled my business in the last few weeks. This formula has saved me time and money. The bottom line is when it comes to mental and emotional mastery Al Duncan can help your situation tremendously.”

“What can I say?  You promised an exciting motivational series and an exciting motivational series is what you delivered.  I think I can speak for all participants when I say that you left us all inspired and ready to go out and conquer the world.  We will be talking about this for days and weeks to come. Thank you so much.  First of all for agreeing to deliver a four part motivational series, and secondly, for a great first installment, “Operation Self-Motivation: How To Get Yourself and Others Around You Fired Up Without Burning Out”.  The seminar was inspiring and informational.  This was extremely though provoking. 

If you are available, I would like to invite you back to repeat this one.  It is one that a lot of people not only will want to hear, but need to hear as well.  Please let me know if you are interested in doing so and your availability. Once again thank you so much for an interesting and highly motivational series.  I look forward to hearing you speak again soon.”

“An eye-opening and unique experience! I have learned so much about my style and the likely impact on others that I will be able to relate to people far more effectively. This seminar is a chance for you to take a break from everyday business and focus on emotions, relationships, and connecting with others. I gained insight into my behavioral patterns and good tools to over come them.  To be honest I was amazed at how much of a command that Al has over this type of subject matter at his age. I couldn’t help but to think WOW when I saw him helping out a couple that has been married for nearly as long as he’s been alive.  Not only was this very rewarding, it was one the best seminars that I have ever attended.”

Your program Operation Self-Motivation (at The Knowledge Shop) was outstanding.  It has been a long time since I was so very much impressed with a training session. 

It was high-content with immediately useable concepts that was delivered with excitement and enthusiasm.  I have already started using several of principles you talked about.

You are definitely an expert on the topic of self-motivation.  Your wealth of knowledge was quite evident during the 2 1/2 hours I spent with you after  the program (note I said "after"). 

As we talked about additional ways to implement the concepts and the implications of these principles in my role as a speaker and trainer, I realized the depth of knowledge you had. 

I believe that parents and teachers would find the concepts you expressed invaluable as they attempt to motivate young people. 

Additionally, managers and supervisors would find value in your programs as they interact with their employees.  In fact, I strongly recommend your presentations to anyone looking to better understand what motivates them and how to best motivate
others. 

Al, I look forward to attending your other programs because I know I will leave with life-changing information which can help propel me towards success in my endeavors.

"I was hesitant about taking this seminar because I thought would be a typical communications class. But after taking it I would recommend it to everyone.  Al's concepts are unique, practical, and fairly easy to use for business and in a personal setting. Al Duncan is a very clear, well-spoken, and fine educator. It was so enjoyable to sit and learn with such a motivational and articulate man."

"The first time I saw Al Duncan speak I was mesmerized.  Every story, quote and point that he made makes you stop and think.  After hearing him speak you will never be the same.  Al makes you expand your mind and your view of life.  I have made it my mission to attend all of his presentations with a friend so they can also be forever changed.   Al Duncan captivates, excites, and stirs you.  Anyone who hears him speak will walk away better then they came."
