Duncan Kirkwood Speaks - Buffalo, New York

Kaelyn Oliver

Duncan is an amazing human. He changed lives and continues to change even more, including mine. I was able to make it to a youth leadership conference and he was there presenting. Never did I know one single person could make such a big difference and great impact on others, until I heard from Duncan. He is so inspiring it is insane. After the presentation I could already see a difference in myself and my mind set was more positive. My ideas about the future were more positive, everything was more positive after hearing from Duncan. If you had to check one thing off your bucket list I would simply suggest hearing from Duncan as one. Thank you Duncan for such a once in a life time experience! Continue to do what you do because it is absolutely amazing!!

We invited Duncan to address a group of 50 student leaders at our organization, and couldn't be happier with his workshop. He was articulate, engaging, and inspiring - all who attended felt very moved by his talk! We look forward to working with him again on future programs.

Duncan is a dynamic, engaging presenter with a level of energy that inspires participation. His willingness to share his personal story allows for meaningful connection and thus deep learning. Connecting with youth is a gift he shares generously with sincerity. Every meeting, conversation, or engagement with Duncan you can rest assured you will walk away seeing the proverbial cup half full. He is a deep thinker, motivator, and positive influence in the lives of all those he works with. I have had the distinct pleasure to work with him and highly recommend him for training, presentations, and consultation.

I have had the great fortune of working with Duncan over the years. He is honest, transparent, mission driven, and passionate. He has addressed the families in my charter school to great response. Duncan's energy is contagious and his audiences just love listening to the pearls of wisdom he drops on them. Any task that Duncan has taken on has been done with excellence and great passion. I highly recommend Duncan to you. You will not be disappointed!

We were absolutely thrilled with Duncan's presentation during our Sunday service. Our congregation at Unitarian Universalist Church of Niagara invited Duncan to speak at our Thanksgiving service. His message on resilience and gratitude was incredibly impactful. Duncan has a beautiful gift for addressing difficult issues and topics in manner that is not only uplifting and inspiring, but also practical in its everyday application and practice. As a follow-up to his discussion, we are going to read his book "Rerouting: Resilience Tools and Tactics" as our book club selection next month. It was a wonderful day and we look forward to welcoming him back in the future.

Duncan Kirkwood has dedicated his life to the service of his community, youth, and his country. His insatiable appetite for knowledge and helping those around him is inspiring. His workshops are personable, informative, and bring out the best in others. I highly recommend his organization to any group of people longing to learn more about themselves and become active agents of change.
