Jim Cathcart is the best in making what you are telling..compelling!” Denis Waitley, author The Psychology of Winning “I’ve known and admired Jim Cathcart since the late 1970s when we were both aspiring speakers growing our careers. We have served together on boards and committees, shared social times and business collaborations. Through it all I have found Jim to be a man of character and a compelling speaker. We invited him to serve as Artist in Residence at High Point University. That should tell you that Jim is a speaker you can trust to bring great ideas to your organization.” Dr. Nido R. Qubein, President, High Point University “There are many resources on delivering a better speech, but my great friend Jim Cathcart has written the Bible on how to be a distinctive speaker. There’s an enormous difference between the two. Jim not only teaches how your presentation can make a greater impact on your audience, he gives you every conceivable nuance on each step you must take – on and off the platform – to stand out when you stand up to speak.” Scott McKain, CEO, The Distinction Institute; author of “The Ultimate Customer Experience” and “Iconic”
