Recommendations For Jim Cathcart received in 2011

Jim Cathcart selected for 3rd consecutive year as Top 5 Speaker

Each year, Speakers Platform recognizes five speakers within ten popular topic areas. Excellence in speaking is based on: expertise, professionalism, client testimonials, presentation skills and original contribution to the field. The only substantive requirement is that the candidates’ standard keynote presentation fee be under $25,000USD. Once the nominees are chosen, online voters determine the final Top5 honorees.

Over 13,000 votes were received at Speaking.com for the initial 157 nominees- from business leaders, educators, association members and others from around the world. Many voters praised the nominees for having a profoundly positive impact on their lives; a living testament to the far reach and valuable work of all the nominees. Please join us in congratulating your 2012 honorees!

It is a great honor to be recognized in this way and to receive it for three years in a row is a very special honor!

In 2010 and again in 2011 I was honored to be selected as one of the Top 5 Sales Speakers in an online selection from among 150 nominees and voted upon by 15,000 respondents in the meetings industry. This award represents a substantial sentiment among those voting when you consider who the other nominees are. I’m truly grateful for the votes and the congratulations I’ve received.

I pledge to be constantly learning and becoming more worthy of your support with each passing year.
