“Stephen O'Keefe truly teaches us all how to communicate and listen. He's so funny and has a style that is truly his own.”

"Stephen O’Keefe is an incredibly witty, charismatic, and moving speaker. On behalf of an audience of more than 850 students, teachers, and organizers, we would not hesitate to recommend him as a speaker at any conference. His keynote on overcoming communication barriers was perfect for our Model UN conference which was centered on international relations and debate. It was an absolute pleasure to hear his insightful stories and experiences. His presentation drew not only the attention of our delegates, but delightfully entertained all attendees with his unique, expressive sense of humour."
