Testimonials
"Daniel Schutzsmith is one of the strongest new presenters I've had the pleasure of working with. With one of the highest attended business oriented presentations at our last event in Toronto, combined with attendee comments like "Very concise, very informative. Great Talk!", we are looking forward to having Daniel at many of our future events. And in case you need further proof of Daniel's presentation skills, his attendee presentation cards showed an average score of 9.18."
"Schutzsmith delivers...his insight, experience and humor helped make WebVisions 2007 a huge success!"
"Daniel really came at project management from an interesting perspective. He’s not a PMI, and he’s a trained web designer who ended up in project management almost by accident. His emphasis was that project management isn’t nearly as complicated as people try to make it. What it boils down to is making sure a project is completed within a defined scope, time, and cost. Just like the classic triangle, a project can be cheap, fast, or good - pick two. He encouraged having reviews and postmortems after a project to analyze what went well and what went poorly, and to keep a playbook of these things for future reference. He advised staying highly organized with records of everything, and that you should always underpromise and overdeliver."
"Dan Schutzsmith not only knows his stuff--the business of web design and development--but he has an extraordinary skill for speaking, presenting and teaching. His ability to hold a highly constructive, insightful, and entertaining one-on-one discussion with a roomful of several hundred people at once is a pleasure to watch. It's Dan, seated at a table, absolutely relaxed, laptop off to one side, talking with *you*. Making eye contact with you. Smiling and speaking with let's-cut-the-crap candor. Sharing war stories and lessons learned. Asking questions from the crowd; from *you*. The answers seem to be well-worth standing up in the back of the room for an hour, to judge from the Q&A throng that follows him out the door and down the hall after he's finished."
