Conference Keynotes

A memorable speaker that attendees will remember. I can tailor a custom keynote to match your audience and event theme and deliver it in an energetic, engaging, and imaginative way.

Jim McKenzie was one of two keynote speakers for our Edvance Christian Schools Association annual Educators Convention in Ontario, attended by over 800 educators. Jim addressed us twice on the final day of the conference with his keynotes “Do Something” and “Future Ready.” And he did it with attention to our own Edvance context, honouring our past work in this regard, even taking the time to celebrate a specific learning story from one of our own schools that embodied his focus.

His communication skills as a presenter are top-notch. He was meticulously prepared in his delivery; he engaged his audience with great humour and playful seriousness. Attendees describe his keynotes as “inspiring and applicable,” “amazing,” “moving,” “one of the most important that we have heard in a while,” “the best in all my years.
