Testimonials
"Marlon is a man on a mission! His workbooks are a MUST read
for all young people. In fact, I am sharing his books with my
own children."
- Les Brown,
Internationally Acclaimed Motivational Speaker
"Your energy and message had a profound impact on the
delegates. I was especially impressed that you did your homework
on our organization by reading our book. In doing so, you earned
the respect of everyone in the JAG National Network because you
customized your message to fit our specific needs."
- Jim Koeninger
Jobs for America's Graduates, Inc.
"I consider him to be the best youth speaker in the country
at the present time. Youth audiences are considered to be the
most difficult to impress. The feedback from teenagers in our
programs is that they consider Marlon to be one of the few truly
authentic speakers they have heard."
- Dr. June Thompson
California Association of Student Councils (CASC)
"As MEC's executive director, it has been my pleasure to
attend every assembly you have presented for us since 1993. In
the last eight years, your inspiring assemblies have been
attended by more than 25,000 students and nearly 1,500 teachers.
I am confident that you touched the soul of every member of each
audience, by challenging them to realize their potential."
- June Bogushefsky
Montgomery Education Connection
"On behalf of every member of AIESEC in South Africa, I would
like to express our sincere thanks for the awesome presentation
that you shared with us at our recent National Conference in
Port Elizabeth. Many members could not stop talking about the
impact that you have made on their lives."
- Michael Goldman
AIESCE in South Africa
"The ratings from your sessions at The National Conference on
Student Services, as well as The National Conference on the
Advancement of Student Diversity have been consistently high.
Comments have ranged from 'What a motivator' to 'The best there
is!' We often receive comments requesting that we invite you to
speak at future conferences."
- Carrie Jensen
Collegiate Conferences, Inc.
"As INROADS seniors, these students have heard a lot of
speakers over the years. Many mentioned that Marlon Smith was by
far the greatest that they had encountered. INROADS President
and CEO, Charles I. Story, witnessed Marlon's presentation
during the conference and commented that in his 17+ years with
the organization, he has never seen a speaker connect so well
with the students. That certainly says a lot."
- Anissa M. Jones
INROADS/Atlanta, Inc.
"I first wanted to be sure that you and your staff know how
pivotal and inspirational your talk was to our students and
their parents here at LMU! The parents absolutely loved you. The
administration is still buzzing about the standing ovation you
received from the parents! The students are asking for you to
come back. It amazes me that you manage to move both parents and
students with each of your presentations."
- Lisa Farland
Loyola Marymount University.
"Marlon's presenting style was dynamic and motivational. Some
of the quotes from the students called him: 'One of the most
motivational people I have ever listened to.' 'Fantastic stage
presence with great ability to hold student interest.' 'He made
me realize how I want to spend my next four years; he really
inspired me.' "
- Lydia Marden
Colby College
"Through his upbeat and high-energy presentation style,
Marlon captures the attention of the audience immediately. His
ability to establish rapport quickly and facilitate interaction
among individuals is quite exceptional. His willingness to
assert his own perceptions and open up with 'true life stories'
contributes to making any audience attentive and engrossed in
the message he so easily gets across."
- Monica Hunter
Ratford

"The overall evaluations for both activities were
outstanding. Both students and counselors were inspired by your
message."
- Dr. Constance Clark
The College Board
"I loved the way you involved the audience. Several people
said that they felt you 'were speaking to just me.' Your
presentation was the talk of the conference. It was everything I
hoped for, and more."
Ester Hugo
National Association for
College Admission Counseling
"Young or old, it makes little difference! Marlon Smith will
empower you to do your best."

Dennis Kimbro
Best-Selling Author
"I have gotten a kick out of the evaluations from the
students. When asked if they would advise a friend to attend
Leadership Quest, one responded 'If Marlon Smith is the
facilitator, DO IT!' Another said, 'I learned more in this one
day than I have learned in four years of college!' That might be
a concern for our BSU administration, but for me, it just
confirms how effective you are as a leadership facilitator and
motivator."
- Maureen Sigler
Boise State University
"I sincerely appreciate your contribution to our National
Leadership Conference in Anaheim. I heard very positive comments
on your presentation."
- Patricia Morrell

African-American Employee Network, thank you for your
inspiration."

ALL!"
