Testimonials for Andrew Gaze AM
Andrew was so engaging! He was open to change due to a snap lockdown and able to pivot to an online presentation with a different format (Q&A session). Our team absolutely loved hearing him speak.
Andrew White Real Estate
Very personable and relatable to the kids. Was able to interact and engage his audience throughout the session. His story and message was exactly what the boys needed to hear.
White Friars College
Andrew was outstanding and had everyone captivated from the start of his presentation. He was able to help us achieve the message we wanted to get across to our workers from his personal experiences which were both entertaining and humorous. Everyone found Andrew a down to earth and genuine person who they could relate to. Our employees went away from the session both inspired and motivated. We would not hesitate to have Andrew back for future training sessions.
McDonnell Dowell
Our experience of working with Andrew was a breeze. He graciously accepted our very last minute invitation to join our National Conference in Hong Kong as our closing keynote speaker with only a few weeks’ notice. He was happy to work to a loose brief and demonstrated a clear grasp of what we hoped he would share with our delegates. Andrew’s mix of motivation and humour had our audience captivated, along with insights into what it takes to achieve greatness. We are sure that Andrew will be one of our keynote speakers our delegates will talk about for years to come – and will look to create an atmosphere of greatness in their own businesses, thanks to Andrew

Andrew's presentation was terrific. He managed to tailor his talk to suit the requirements of the function, providing interesting stories in regard to his time in basketball as well as some advice for ensuring the right environment is created for sporting excellence.

Excellent. Andrew was absolutely brilliant! A more likeable and inspiring speaker you will not find.
Automotive Global Insurance
Excellent. Even though the workshop was a government initiative where the audience was predominantly aimed at a specific Government program target group and the information we provided contained tracts of technical government policy, Andrew was able to grasp the main issues and conduct his presentation focusing on two or three key points that related to the audience and the rationale behind the workshop. Andrew is very genuine person which shines through in his presentations.
Department of Employment and Workplace Relations
Andrew was fantastic. His talk was perfect for the group of delegates and he was most entertaining. He is just such a likeable 'bloke' that he was the perfect fit.
