"I have personally worked with Rex Hagon and have also referred a number of colleagues to him over the course of the last ten years. Rex is an extremely effective personal communication consultant with the ability to create demonstrable results across a wide variety of individuals and interaction styles.

His coaching is very personalized and focussed on communication impact – not just presentation style and techniques, but also the clarity and relevance of the underlying messages. Rex has had a lasting positive impact on me and many others he has worked with."
David Denison, President & CEO, Canada Pension Plan Investment Board

"I first started working with Rex three years ago. At that time, I was being asked to raise the bar in terms of my presentations. I was finding myself in situations that I was not comfortable with (large audience, unfamiliar content, new AV requirements etc.) I knew that the approach I had taken in the past (i.e., building the slides the night or two prior to the presentation) was no longer going to cut it and this is when I started working with Rex.

In the years that have followed, Rex’s Effective Communications process has really helped me overcome all of the issues where I struggled in the past. I now look forward to presenting where as in the past I was extremely nervous. My messages are crisp, to the point and are relevant to my Audience. The final proof for me is that our internal survey feedback system now consistently ranks me as one of top internal presenters in Canada."
Sean Forkan, Director, Cisco Systems Canada

"The Institutional Sales Team for Connor, Clark & Lunn Financial Group has benefited from Rex's presentation skills insights, and one-on-one coaching for the past four years.

Our presentation preparation vernacular includes many of the key words from Rex's coaching, a testament to the impact of his spoken word training."
Bruce Shewfelt, Head of Institutional Sales, Connor, Clark & Lunn Financial Group

"On every occasion we've worked with Rex Hagon & Associates it has resulted in increased performance numbers at a personal and corporate level. Our corporate messages are now stronger, more memorable, and consistent.

Rex always has shared his deep experience in the field of Effective Communication in an open, intuitive, and comfortable manner that has inspired me and our people to be at our best. I like that in a coach. He understands our people, and our business: his constructive and creative coaching style is a pleasure to work with, and instills a high degree of confidence."
W. Kevin Drynan, SVP & Managing Director, State Street Corporation

"Since our sessions I delivered one major presentation to our Channel Partners during an offsite meeting. It was a wonderful feeling to be able to breathe and take those pauses. In fact, one of their SVP’s actually took the time to compliment me on my PRESENTATION STYLE.

She noticed that I was more composed, more conversational in speech and because of that she mentioned that I had a greater impact on the audience. She asked me what I did to change my style. It felt great to share with her that I had been at a Rex Hagon Course and that I was simply trying to apply these new Presentation and Communication principles."
Antonio Mastroianni, Dir. de comptes, Canaux de Distribution, Cisco Systems Canada
