"Angus was a guest speaker at SFU Alumni Association’s young professional event held in the spring of 2013. If you want to inspire an audience for a similar event (or any event for that matter), I would highly recommend Angus as the feature speaker. Although other athletes may have similar stories of overcoming obstacles to achieve success, Angus was able to translate his lessons learned on the field to meaningful advice for anyone in any career. Angus was able to pull on the audience’s heart strings, made them laugh and overall, made us ponder on how to improve the lives that we lead. "

"When I asked Angus to come and speak to our team, I thought I was going to hear fun stories about the battles of a winning football player. Much to my surprise what we got were eloquent, touching, and inspiring life stories about failing, trying again, and triumphing against all odds. The parallels that Angus was able to illuminate in our imagination about professional sports and our day-to-day struggles as a start-up, resonated with all of us. Every leader of an organization should facilitate for his/her team the opportunity to listen to what is a remarkable person with a remarkable story."

"The Bears Quarterback Club, a fund raising organization for our local high school, recently hosted a dinner for 200 community leaders and business owners where Angus Reid presented the keynote address. His message was thoughtful, inspirational, valuable and very entertaining. Angus's high energy presentation style, along with his powerful message, made him a hit with everyone in the room, including those with little or no football background. Business owners, coaches, athletes, students, and just about everyone else benefitted from hearing Angus and his message. We can't thank him enough for taking the time to come to our small community where he has left a lasting impression."

"Great Canadian Gaming Corporation is a gaming, entertainment and hospitality business with 6,000 employees at 22 properties in five jurisdictions in Canada and the US. In September 2017, Angus Reid delivered a keynote address at our company’s annual business planning session in front of 150 of our senior executives where he provided a compelling and powerful overview of the importance of effective and efficient communication, drawing on his experience in professional football. In short, our team was mesmerized from start to finish and had useful takeaways in terms of how important the art of communication is in our professional and personal lives. Angus’ long career in professional football gives him a unique vehicle to deliver a message we often overlook and forget, irrespective of the industry we work in. I hope other companies and organizations take the time to engage Mr. Reid so their teams can learn from his experiences and his message, like we had the privilege to do so."
