"We are still all over “How winning works," and hardly a day goes by we don’t reference your time with us in Orlando. What is so awesome is that it kind of stuck without having to do a lot of follow up with people, although we have done that too. "
- Howard Halle, EVP, Florida Division Manager
"Hope all is well and life is great. Just want to let you know since our meeting in Orlando we are off to the best start in many years. We thinking is taking off. I have given your book to our three senior leaders at Wells Fargo Insurance services. One day I am hopping you visit our team and push us hard. You made a difference for me personally and for that I thank you. God bless and all the best talk soon."
- Bob Cangeme, Wells Fargo
"Thank You! You’re Awesome! Everyone is still talking about you and your message.
Before coming to Motorola 4 years ago, I spent 26 years in public safety (3 Fire/EMT and 23 Police) hearing many leadership and motivational speakers including Zig Ziglar, Stephen Covey, President George Bush and many others, you are definitely one of the best! I am so glad you were found by Motorola to attend our conference and present your message. I look forward to continuing in my second career now carrying many of your thoughts and ideas in my toolbox. Leadership is a journey and you just gave me fuel to continue my trek!
Best of luck in your future and keep changing people’s lives!"
- Trevlyn Pitner, Sr. Account Manager, Motorola Solutions, Inc.
"Having followed your career a bit over the years, I had a pretty good sense for how awesome you would be, but it would appear that I underestimated that piece. I say that because we have done these meetings for many years, and while I think they all have been very good, no question that the feedback on you was exceptional! We had our debrief this morning, and we gave you an A+!
Robyn, it was such a treat to be with you, and thank you again for the exceptional job you did. If I can help you in any way secure other events with our company I would be happy to do that; sounds like you are pretty busy as it is! I hope we have the chance to work together again, and in case I will look to you to help “pull me in” on one of the adventures!!! Let me know how we might help with the open water record attempt.
All the best and thank you again for everything. See you soon!"

- Howard Halle
EVP, Florida Division Manager, Wells Fargo
Robyn,
I want to personally thank you again for playing such a significant role in the success of our meeting! The feedback on your presentation and messaging, as well as your preparation, has been nothing less than fantastic!!
If I can be of help to you by writing a recommendation...please let me know!
Thanks again."

- Dave Roberts, Medtronic, Inc., Vice President, U.S. Sales, Cardiac and Vascular Group
Dear Robyn,
You have a new fan! Thank you for an outstanding presentation at the Nordic Personal Development Congress in Oslo during last weekend.
I have been running my own company for 6 years, working with branding, communication and stress relief. I teach communication skills and it is always interesting to experience good speakers on stage. You are the very best one I have ever heard. You have an important and great message that is easily applicable to the business world. You have such positive energy, you are genuine, humble, have self-confidence, use humour and great videos to strengthen the message.
I simply loved it! I hope to be able to get some of my clients to hire you so that we can have you back in Norway soon. What is the price you take for a presentation ?
I wish you a great day, and thank you again for lifting the whole audience.
- Catherine Lemaréchal, Communications consultant & NLP Certified coach, Nordic Personal Development
Dear Robyn,
I was one of the thousands of critical care nurses that heard you speak at the NTI. You truly stimulated my thinking about my team at work. As a nursing administrator, the value of kinetic leadership and a cohesive team can not be overstated. I have given each of the managers that report to me a copy of your book. My goal -- stimulate their thinking about how we all can work as a team to push ourselves to the next level of excellence.
Thank you for your down to earth reminder about the power of a synergistic team.
Best regards,
Karen Stutzer, Nurse
"Last month I heard Robyn deliver a marvelous presentation from the main platform at Million Dolllar Round Table. She kept the audience of some 7,000 people spellbound, and equally as impressive was her willingness to take the time and interest to listen to, and share with the participants afterward. Robyn has a powerful message and delivers it very effectively."
Arnie Pechler, Business Consultant Robyn,
Thank you so much for coming to our little part of the world. We have received a tremendous response on your keynote presentation. It was a good time, considering our growth, to have you here to speak about teamwork. Your journey, your heart, and the way you tell the story resonated with people. I am so glad they were able to see what I did when researching for a speaker. I appreciate your generosity in working with us on the fee, because we might not have otherwise been able to have you here.
Again, thank you to everyone on your team and it was such a pleasure to have you here.
Respectfully,
- Julie Salinas, Human Resources Manager, Allegiance Benefit Plan Management, Inc.

-- Siemens Emerging Leaders Conference

"Hi Robyn, Just wanted to thank you for your fantastic presentation at our Emerging Leaders Forum Summit in Orlando. Your talk was incredibly motivational and inspiring, and the leadership lessons were right on target for this group. Early feedback from participants is off the charts. We'll be thinking about ways to bring you back for other Siemens events!
It was a pleasure introducing you. Good luck with the solo kayak adventure; we'll be sending you positive mojo."

-- Shelley Brown, Director, Employee & Leadership Communications
Corporate Marketing & Communications
Siemens Corporation

"The conference went great!!! You were so effective in teaching teamwork, setting the tone is an understatement!!! We really got it!! That evening we did set up our committee by vote. We also redistributed 300 existing client business accounts for service with eager cooperation from everyone. The next day we increased the state's incentive fund contribution, set up a recruiting fund and training fund. These are monies that are deducted from everyone's statements and used to cover contest, conference etc. Anyway, that went very well too.
Our moral has improved 100%. The meeting surveys were all positive and gave you lots of luv for your roll in our conference."

- Steven W. Kaiser, State Sales Coordinator, Aflac Hawaii/Guam

"Hey Robyn... i saw you speak at leadership academy in 2006 and you were my ABSOLUTE favorite speaker..I got goosebumps when i saw your video footage and so admire all your dedication and strength! You so inspire me and when I have a hard time with workouts...I think of how kick-ass u are...and keep going! So much love to you Robyn...u rock!"

- Jennifer Brown, Anthony Robbins Leadership Academy

"...It's been just over a year since we did that meeting with you and people still talk about being the best teambuilding meeting we've ever held."

- Irwin I. Golub, Northrop
Grumman IT Solutions Team

I would honored to recommend Robyn Benincasa as a keynote speaker for any of your clients. Robyn is a captivating, dynamic speaker with a style that it is both approachable and extremely compelling. While adventure racing and Robyn's exploits are clearly larger-than-life, she is so natural and unassuming that her audiences are readily inspired and eager to put her lessons to work.
We have used Robyn as a keynote for groups as large as 550. She has no problem commanding each attendee's attention. She is consistently among our highest rated speakers. We've used, among others, Joe Thiesman, Jerry Linegar (the astronaut), and Ben Carson (the surgeon) for groups as large as 1300. Each has been very good. Robyn is better. Not only is her message as compelling, but her multimedia approach is well suited to very large groups; 1200 or more should be no problem.

-- Christopher Mortell, Sr. Manager, HR, Professional Education and Learning, Siemens Medical Solutions

"I have known Robyn Benincasa for a number of years, and have utilized her talents as both a speaker, as well as a leader of team oriented events. While the SVP for the Western U.S. for Starbucks Coffee, I selected her as both the lead speaker, as well as the team leader, for our annual Store Manager Leadership Conference, held in Tacoma, Washington. The event was an overwhelming success. In fact, 6 years later, they are still talking about the key learnings, the fun, and the excitement of working together as a team. She also addressed the national Leadership Conference for Starbucks Coffee, speaking to about a 1000 attendees, including the Board of Directors, Howard Schultz, the founder, as well as the senior leadership team, the corporate office, and the entire field organization for Starbucks. She was a great success.
Likewise, 2 years ago I was the C.O.O. for It's A Grind Coffee Houses, and we invited Robyn to facilitate a one day team building event, as well as deliver the keynote address at the first ever national Franchisee Convention. She went above and beyond, ensuring the success of the event, and providing much in the way of key learnings the each Franchisee could take back to their individual businesses. I can recommend Robyn and her team to provide an exceptional event that will thrill the audience short term, and provide meaningful change in the long-term as she provides key insights into the synergies of building a World Class team. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to call. "

-- John Alderson, Zone V.P. Starbucks/C.O.O. It's a Grind

"Your presentation was extremely motivating--WOW!! Your
life and the risks you have taken are truly inspiring
and phenomenal! I am 53 and will never be climbing the
Andes or any other peaks, but I strive to continue overcoming
difficulty with a positive attitude. You gave me more
hope and direction and reminded me of the little tiger
I used to be. Thank you so very much! Keep sending your
strong message of achievement and success! "

-- Linda J. Griffith, Director of Concierge Services

"Dear Robyn,
I want to thank you so much for coming to speak to our company this past week! As you know, my office facilitates the sales of residential units being built by a “New Homes” developer. Our sales efforts would not be successful without the team of contractors and consultants that contribute to the construction of these wonderful homes. The amount of teamwork required is immense! In attendance at your presentation were: contractors, lawyers, sales people, bankers, architects, brokers, insurance agents, engineers, and many other consultants.
The feedback we have received since the presentation has been overwhelming. Not only did everyone gain a fresh perspective about “Teamwork”, our company also gained a reputation as an office that cares about the growth and contribution of the people that are a part of this extended team. Many of the attendees said that they had not considered all of the facets of “Teamwork” that you offered and that the presentation had given them much to contemplate!
Your approach to the concept of “Teamwork” is unique. Even though most of us are not athletes, everyone could relate to the stories and situations that were shown during your presentation. I don’t think anyone realized how much “Teamwork” is actually required to “win” in the eco-challenge races. Your presentation showed us that not only is it crucial to the survival of the team, it is guaranteed failure if the support, caring, and cooperation amongst the players is missing. The videos you showed were not only entertaining, they were very relatable. We all saw a part of ourselves in those team scenarios. We laughed, we learned, and some people in the audience were deeply emotionally touched.
We all benefited so much from seeing you. I can already see the results of your presentation amongst the teammates in my sales office. We are now engaged in: “WE” thinking, and the amount of support and empathy for each other has tripled. We talk about it everyday! I feel honored and privileged to have had you with us. You are truly a living example of the benefits of “Teamwork”, and we will have you back to work with us in a greater capacity to improve our performance as a real team!"

"AWESOME!!!!! No other way to describe you or the
presentation that you gave at our Summit meeting last
week. I spent the week listening to a number of people
talking about the session, your achievements and how
they tied in so well to some of the issues that we are
trying to implement on the one hand and overcome on the
other. The 8 Human Synergies tied perfectly into the
messaging that we had done earlier in the day and we
tied a number of your key messages into the next two
team building events we did in the afternoon.
You were inspiring for me personally and certainly for my team. No doubt you and adventure racing have approximately 140 new fans.
I look forward to watching you race again in your upcoming event.
My very best regards and thanks
Just Awesome!"

-- Anthonie Goudemond,
Siemens Medical Solutions, Vice President, Human Resources

"Robyn, thanks again for the awesome presentation
you gave to our HR meeting this past Monday. It
was by far the best and most inspiring talk I have ever
heard. I have taken to heart some of the key
messages from your talk and have and will use them in
my personal as well as my work life. You really
made a difference and for that I am grateful."

-- Edward Hayes, Siemens
Medical Solutions, Director, Human Resources

"I cannot thank you enough for your dedication
and phenominal delivery at the Teambuilding/Bikebuilding
event at our National Managers Meeting. I received SO
many wonderful, positive comments about Robyn's presentation.
The audience felt you were very authentic, passionate
and that you really understood 'Jamba'. I/we were thrilled.
I suspect there will be many upcoming occasions for us
to work together. I look forward to it!"

-- Renee Kempler, Jamba
Juice, Director of Retail Marketing

"Hey Robyn,
I'm the Mastery University team Manager at Robbins and
I was at Leadership Academy. All I can say about your
presentation is....WOW!! I've been in organizational
development/sales management for 20 years and have seen
hundreds of speakers. You TRULY are the best of the best!
Of course, given your amazing background I can understand
that anything you do is done with EXCELLENCE!"

--Terry Moore, Mastery Manager, The Anthony Robbins Companies

"We had so much fun with you. I literally received
so many compliments on your message and comments about
how your talk touched people - some wanted to go home
and share with their husbands/wives/families. Several
others said you were the best speaker they had ever heard
(my opinion too by the way) and that more in Nestle should
hear you! You SO over-delivered both in your speech and
in your willingness to spend time with our team. I couldn't
have asked for a more perfect message to be delivered
at just the right time."

--Lisbeth Armentano, Director
of Communications & Promotions, Nestlé Nutrition
Division

"Robyn , Thank you for a fabulous and outstanding
presentation during our C3 Outfitters event this past
week in Phoenix. Your presentation style and message really
energized the attendees. We heard nothing but great comments
and feedback from many of the attendees throughout the
week.
Your flexibility to work with us on the message,
theme and your overall participation was very refreshing
and we appreciate all your efforts both prior and during
the event. Your presentation was one of the highlights
for the event and helped to make this one of our most
successful C3 events to-date. Thank you from all of the
management team and the C3 committee."

--Trent Cross, Americas
Software Marketing Team, Hewlett Packard

"Robyn,
I hope you had a good flight back to San Diego. On behalf of all my colleagues, THANK YOU for a wonderful, inspiring
and uplifting presentation this morning. The buzz around
the agency is fantastic, and many people have stopped
by my office or sent me mails to tell me how much they
liked it, and how much you amazed them. I'll be in touch
again next week as I have a number of things I'd like
to follow up with you on."
All the best,

--Annette,
Chief of Staff, New York Euro RSCG Worldwide

"In short, your presentation was amazing. You rock!
You move the audience emotionally. Your content is powerful,
and your energy and ability to be genuine on stage were
fabulous. I hope they were all taking notes."

--Scott Harris, Trainer,

"I am still charged by my experience participating
in Robyn's "AdventureTeambuilding" program,
and have put a lot of her team ideas into practice in
my business"
--Scott McGarrigle, CEO,
AKI

"Robyn's background and experience provide us with
a unique and much needed perspective for our RealTime
participants, and her award winning adventure racing team
embodies what it means to be a leader today. We always
get an INCREDIBLE response to her 'Building World Class
Teams' sessions and adventure events."

--Gina Imperato, Content
Builder, Fast Company Magazine

"The section of "Extreme Team String"
that I brought home from our event still hangs in my office
as a reminder of so many lessons, including "asking
for help is a gift to the helper". I continue to
be inspired by my experience with World Class Teams on
the beach in San Diego. You made a profound impact in
my life! Thank You!"

--Amy Peterson, Director
of Sales, Credit Union National Association
"I am back to my job and family life, but I have
to tell you that the World Class Teams experience last
week was very significant. Although I have done some teambuilding
processes before, I felt your ideas were unique. I had
fun, but I continually learned about giving, listening,
planning, thinking, and pushing myself as far as possible.
I also appreciated the teambuilding workbook, and will
find lots of uses for it. I serve as director for an organization
of over 400 people and teamwork is critical."
--Sharon Anderson, NDSU,
RealTime "Extreme Team" Participant

"Robyn does a fabulous job of bringing the principles
of adventure racing into the corporate environment. She
did a great job of customizing her session to meet the
needs and objectives of our national management meeting.
The audience was riveted and our managers continue to
talk about Robyn and the lasting impact she made!"

--Debbie Rubin, Assistant
to the President, Aramark Educational Resources

"Robyn has a singular energy which she transmits
to her audience, allowing them, at least vicariously,
to live what she has experienced. Her story is a call-to-action
to be more active at whatever level in the great outdoors."

--Lee Plesser Smith, Marketing
Manager, Timberland

"Robyn - I thought I knew the importance of teamwork,
but your presentation at our sales meeting drove home
just how critical teamwork is in every aspect of life...business
and personal! Thank you for bringing this to the forefront
of my everyday dealings in life, you reiterated and drove
home what I already thought I knew...just magnified it
1000 times. You truly are inspirational. After hearing
you speak, I am truly inspired to be a better team member."

--Lauren Harbour, Director of Distributor
Sales/Twinlab

"Hey Robyn,
Thank you so much for presenting at our sales meeting. I can honestly report that you were a highlight of the week. The team was so jazzed to hear you present. I will be sure to share the link with the team as well since we will definitely be pulling for you. Best of luck in the World Championships!!!"
--Kevin Amerio, Twinlab

"Hi Robyn,
I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for sharing your story with us. I left the hotel on Wednesday feeling more than just motivated, I felt touched. I wanted you to know how warm and open you came across, not only as an inspiration but as a person. I walked away honestly saying to myself, "Robyn seems like she would make a really great friend". Your story is so incredible but you present it in a totally credible way. I've learned a lot of things listening to people speak, but I heard things from you I'd never heard before. Thank you for touching my life. I will carry my new lessons with me for a lifetime and, because of that (and you) I will be that better person, friend, and teammate. Many blessings."

--Rebecca Burcher
, Sales agent with Coldwell Banker Real Estate

"Your "8 Essential Elements of Human Synergy" was by far the presentation was absolutely the best of all the sessions I attended at this years HDI Conference. In fact it was the best corporate presentation I have ever seen. I really DID leave the session inspired.
"

- Frank Hartnagel, IT Asset Management Analyst, HDI

"My team had a FANTASTIC time with Robyn and her
team. I can not 'glow' about the event enough! Everyone
from World Class Teams was wonderful - they really worked
with my executives and helped pull them out of their
shells and make them work as teams. The events
they had us doing were a lot of fun, challenging as well
as meaningful for our team to get the most from
the event (not to mention hilarious to watch!). The
end of the day/wrap up session where we re-grouped on
the day's activities and how everyone did also served
as a learning lesson.
All in all, it was a great experience and we really enjoyed doing it and learning
from it. It really did help bring my team together - from my executives
that work Internationally and in US Satellite offices, to the people that work
together on a daily basis in our LA office. Everyone got a keen sense of
'teamwork' and the challenges really made them bond. Not a bad word was
said about the day (other than 'I'm going to be sore tomorrow!')."

-- Sherri Cahill, Napster,
Assistant

"I was fortunate to be
a part of the It's A Grind seminar that you gave at the
Coast Hotel in Long Beach, CA. I'm truly awed by you and
your team's drive, enthusiasm and positive attitude, to
say the least. You are amazing! Thank you for sharing
your life lessons with others as it proves to be so inspirational,
motivating and uplifting."

-- Sheeba
George, "Its a Grind" coffee

"What can I say....you and your team were awesome! Our
team really enjoyed hearing your story and found the entire
session to be of tremendous value. Everyone
was still talking about it Thursday night at our dinner.

-- Reza Etedali, REZA
Investment Group, CEO & Founder

"You were awesome! Really. Anthonie was very happy
and everyone came away thoroughly inspired. Anthonie
did say that when you hugged him it was like being hugged
by Arnold Schwarzeneger. That was a compliment. :) I'd
ask him why he's been hugging Arnold, but that's probably
none of my business."

-- Christopher Mortell, Manager of Curriculum
Development, Siemens Medical Solutions

"My head and heart are still
reeling from the Fast Company Magazine "Extreme Team"
experience in San Diego! The breadth and depth of information
that was presented and shared during this event made it
the most inspiring learning experience of my career.
"Robyn and her team designed an event that was a perfect
balance of physical and mental challenges which required
collaboration, dynamic role shifting along the way and
a strong commitment to the team. My big win is that I'm
walking around with the highest level of self-confidence
I have ever known. Also, I learned to ask for help-- or
at least ask sooner; no longer will I wait for the offer
of help.
Finally, I feel confident that I will continue to move
past old boundaries. Thank you Fast Company and World
Class Teams for a priceless experience. It was absolutely
EXTREME."

--Loretta Ratliff, Keybank

"

- Loretta Cranbourne, Product Manager, Schering-Plough Corporation

"Just saw Your presentation at Ignition 2009 and it was remarkable. Thank you for the great Ideas. Being a Marine during Viet Nam I understand teamwork and u reminded me again of the principles of becoming 'WE' as an organization in order that we all succeed. Your adventure races were also incredible. Thanks for the inspiration."

- Bobl Ellinger, Major, USMC ret, Ignite, INC

"Thank you so much for coming to the Ignition 2009. I felt really pumped after hearing you and want to know if there is a DVD of your presentation. The thing that I carried away was that we all go forward together and we do not allow anyone to fail. So sorry that all the IGNITE ASSOCIATES in TX and GA couldnt have heard this. Really would love a DVD. Thanks again for your great inspiration."

- Beth Norman in Fayetteville, GA

"RB - Thanks again for your time in Orlando. The "triathlon" was a HUGE success -- having you there for the opening pep talk, run, ride and photo shoot helped to create the enthusiasm we were going for. And, as always, you nailed it. I hope we can do it again next year -- but with more creativity... Urban adventure, anyone?"

- Andrew Burns, Director of Global Marketing Communications, Smith and Nephew Orthopaedics

“Robyn is perhaps the best team building leader I’ve ever been around. Her ability to motivate is centered on her ability to see that people can accomplish way more than what they think is possible, then helps them laugh all the way to the finish. She is remarkably gifted, yet sufficiently disciplined to become and remain one of the top endurance athletes in the world. She is passionate about helping others, and gives selflessly on both the mundane and the grand scale. She knows what it takes to struggle through adversity arriving successfully with her team, and can communicate what it takes in a charmingly effective manner.“

- Bill Burgess CCIM SIOR, The Burgess Company

"I just wanted to thank you again for your participation at our recent Welk Summit. You turned out to be an exceptional speaker and I'm grateful for the impact you made on our team.
The overwhelming response from your presentation was exceptionally positive. Many people emailed me afterwards, especially some of the ladies on our team, grateful for a speaker that connected to them while still showing signs of strength and vulnerability. You, as a speaker, were the perfect fit at the right time.
Good luck in your future endeavors and send me the occasional photo of your Adventure Race exploits."

- Michael Gehrig | President, Sales & Marketing | Welk Resort Group

"Robyn was absolutely fantastic at the ORD conference in Toronto. She has an outstanding ability to immediately connect with the audience and 'shush' them with her incredible story. All hearts and minds in the room were captivated by her presence and detailed account of her personal journey and that of others who complete these amazing eco-challenge events. What resonated incredibly well were the elements of teamwork and how each member takes turns being the leader when it makes the most sense, particularly from a skill set or capability perspective – and particularly when it counts, i.e. when the fun stops! She exudes courage, strength, compassion, determination, and fun! All qualities that we want to emulate as leaders. I definitely would love to have her come back again sometime in the future – she is truly one amazing and inspiring person!"
