Customer feedback (excerpts)
“Alex Woodruff not only gives lectures that are underpinned by theory, the stories he tells are peppered with practical examples based on personal experiences. This bridges the gap between theory and practice. He also has an excellent ability to tune into the audience, build trust and make people feel comfortable with the topics. This is all reflected in the outstanding feedback he receives from students.”
“That was an enthralling and inspirational event. I was amazed how different one and the same campaign can be perceived by different cultures and all the things marketing managers have to think about.”
“A lively and exciting talk delivered by a marketing expert with international experience. The history and development from one-channel marketing into advertising dialogue underpinned by social media was extremely insightful. Mr Woodruff presents without coming across like a schoolmaster. He’s a terrific and adept keynote speaker!”
[Alex Woodruff] “introduced an alien topic to a group from a different culture and did this in such a way that everyone (!) felt they were in a position to go off and translate what they had learnt into practice, without further need for support.”
“Alex Woodruff wins people over, not just becuase of his blog – he’s a brilliant speaker.”
“I’m so glad Alex Woodruff teaches for us as a guest lecturer.”
