Testimonials

Lee Rubin is by far one of the best speakers we have had in our organization! Lee was the keynote speaker at our annual company-wide internal meeting, bringing employees together from across the country. Lee’s session on extraordinary teams is motivational, inspiring, engaging, and proved absolutely critical in helping our employees recognize not only the greatness we have already attained, but also the work we can still do together. So many “ah-ha” moments and thought-provoking points delivered with humor from Lee created a memorable presentation our group is still talking about."
– Kristen Greer, Director of Marketing Operations, ImagineSoftware
Lee was the opening keynote speaker for our hybrid event and provided an amazing talk about building teams. Both our in-person and virtual audience were buzzing about how they were inspired and entertained by his session. Aside from giving a great talk, Lee was a pleasure to work with. He was always willing to get on a call to customize his presentation and even worked with our marketing team to promote him with our event. I would highly recommend Lee and believe he would be appropriate for any audience!”
– Brooke Passy, CMP, DES, Senior Meeting Manager, Association Headquarters
What an absolute pleasure to have Lee in to speak to our TPO salesforce this week in Nashville. We have had numerous speakers over the years and I can tell you that Lee provided far and away the most impactful message our team has ever heard. Passionate, truthful, and honest - traits that define our team and our company, and will serve us all well as we continue to work towards achieving our goals in 2022 and beyond. We cant wait to have Lee back, and we are proud to have him as a partner, a friend, and part of the Flagstar family!"

He captures the audience’s attention and consistently engages them throughout his presentation. His message about building and strengthening extraordinary teams can benefit organizations and work groups of any size in any industry."
– Jen Adix, Conference Co-Chair, South Dakota SHRM
Lee Rubin = Superstar. It can't be emphasized enough how important it is to have great speakers at your events for them to be successful. Now, with most events turning from Live in-Person to Live on-Screen, it may be even more important. I have seen Lee in-person and was very excited that he agreed to participate in Alloya's Annual Symposium. Due to the Pandemic, we were forced to present our event virtually. Lee could not have been more accommodating and with our post-event survey results now in - he couldn't have done a better job - highest marks from our members!"
– Tim Bruculere, Senior Vice President, Alloya Corporate FCU
We were delighted to have Lee Rubin be our opening Keynote Speaker at our NSCP National Conference. Lee’s message to our audience was not only energetic and engaging but also inspirational and “great for all facets of life,” as one of our attendees commented. We received rave reviews of Lee’s keynote and how relevant it was to them as compliance professionals, while also applying to them on a personal level. Lee’s storytelling style, infused with humor, practicality, and truth, made a huge impact on our audience. We would absolutely recommend Lee Rubin as a keynote speaker to any organization because his messages of leadership and teamwork collaboration are timeless and applicable for all industries."
– Holly Orefice, Conference Manager, National Society of Compliance Professionals
We sponsored Lee at our annual Advisor conference, and he was tremendous. Lee brought high energy, passion, and total engagement among the 300 Financial Advisors in attendance. His delivery was direct and he reinforced the messages our team was trying to deliver to a very successful group of employees. Lee was passionate, with high energy and he tackled tough questions head on, and was a crowd FAVORITE."
– Frank Consalo, Citi Personal Wealth Management
