Empowerment Therapy

It is with greatest pride and actually an honor to provide this speaking endorsement for Brian J. Hubbard. I have known Brian Hubbard for over ten years, having worked for him as an assistant in setting up his previous workshops and speaking engagements. In fact, it was through the inspiration of my association with Brian that I obtained my graduate degree in social work. I am currently the Director for the Valley Community School (Middletown, RI), and have spoken extensively myself and have observed countless other speakers.

In summary, Brian Hubbard’s speaking ability is incredible. I have reviewed some of the other endorsements provided for Brian, and I definitely agree with Dr. John Curry, President Emeritus, Northeastern University, that Brian most definitely ranks in the top 5% of speakers. In fact, he is without a doubt one of the best speakers I have ever listened to. The minute he takes over the podium, the audience is electrified, and Brian immediately, without the use of notes, has the audience totally captivated. When I witnessed his talk on October 4, 2000 and at the RI State House on June 27, 2001, he received sustained standing ovations. What is also very remarkable is the quality of Brian’s speaking ability for a person who was born pre-lingually deaf. Without a doubt, Mr. Hubbard’s speeches have been highly motivational and inspirational to anyone who has heard him. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
