Testimonials

I had the pleasure of meeting Stephen Shinn back in 2000 when I gave my FIRST lecture. I had never spoken to a large audience before and I was scared. When he arrived he had to stop me from crawling out the window, really, he did. His words boosted my confidence and he was very reassuring. His humor was great and he got me outside of myself and my fear. He told me that I could do this and it would be fun and exciting and to just go out there and be me! 14 years later, I am still on the speaker circuit and to this day, when I get nervous or anxious over an event I hear his words and rely on his professionalism and confidence that all is running well. He will have your back! I still work with Stephen and over the years have seen his ability to bring media, sponsors and audiences together! He is fantastic and you can count on him to do the job and do it right!

It's a measure of my relationship with Stephen Shinn that I'm not actually sure when we met, or how long we've worked together. He's just been a constant in the industry, offering unexpected opportunities or high-value interviews even before being asked. And since I get to look like a genius for scoring said interviews, I am obviously appreciative.

Stephen and the team at Shinn Communications simply go above and beyond as they cover every detail of the task at hand and still manage a friendly and personal touch.  Simply a delight to work with from beginning to end.
