"Patricia Digh is one of those rare speakers who can immediately connect with her audience, whether she is speaking to a small group of 10 or an auditorium of 10,000. She weaves stories and anecdotes into an amazingly perceptive and sharp look at issues and situations. And she brings her own fresh and thoughtful perspective, grounded in reality and research."
Gay Clyburn, Director of Communications & Information
The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching

"Having served as the director of education for several large associations, I am quite selective and critical when it comes to evaluating speakers. It seems so difficult to find speakers, especially female speakers, who are engaging and who have a substantive message. Patti Digh is one of them! Patti connects with the audience immediately with her stories and her tailored messages. I love Patti's speaking style. It's low key yet dynamic enough to command an audience of 6000+."
Anne Blouin, CAE
American Society for Training & Development

"Patti brings warmth and wit to all of her "conversations" and has an uncanny ability to connect with the individual no matter the size of the audience. Her ideas, messages and wisdom quietly come to life through beautiful stories based on the complexities of life and are seamlessly made part of the fabric of her presentation. She is a real person, a woman of principle, and a must listen."
William H. Banzhaf
Executive Vice President, Society of American Foresters

"The American School Food Service Association has an annual meeting for directors of our largest districts in the country. These members run multi-million dollar programs and demand top quality speakers. Patti Digh did an outstanding job of engaging this group on diversity issues over two days. She used a combination of interactive training, facilitating and knowledge sharing. The evaluations were excellent and I could not have been more pleased. I find her ability to build rapport with her audience through sincerity, warmth and being a good listener as well as speaker, makes her one of the best we have had.
