We were honoured to have Kristian Porthill as the Key Note speaker at our recent National Franchise Conference held at ANZ Stadium in Sydney. As part of this engagement Kristian opened the conference for us and our 80 Franchisees that were present, setting us up perfectly for the day with what was a motivating and informative session titled ‘The Ultimate Choice In Life’.

Kristian also opened our afternoon program with a second session titled ‘The Anatomy of a Successful Business’. Kristian’s presentations were both informative and engaging and provided our Franchisees with thought provoking insights and facts that have received exceptionally positive feedback from all in attendance.

A master at his craft, Kristian kept the audience both entertained and engaged throughout the sessions. Kristian also mixed with our Franchisees during the breaks during the day going above and beyond to ensure that we were provided with a great experience as a result of his engagement.

Ashburton Primary School would like to acknowledge your presentation at our Assembly. We were very impressed that your were able to speak so confidently to such a large group of students, teachers and parents.

Standing in front of 650 people is not easy but there was an excellent response to your motivational presentation. Teachers are now using the key ideas in their classrooms. Listening to the group of students who approached you after the talk demonstrated they were very engaged and wanted to find out more.
