What historical figure
would you most like
to speak at one of
your meetings?
“I would say Ronald Reagan. You could always depend on him to bring
in the crowds. He also had a way to relate current world affairs to
the type of group he was speaking to. There was always a good
‘take-away’ for everyone when you heard the man speak.”
William L. Youngs, CMP
Meeting Planning Specialist
Forest Research Institute
Jersey City, N.J.
“As an investment bank with roots in
Australia, we would like to have Major General Lachlan Macquarie,
‘the father of Australia.’ He was the governor of New South Wales
and was instrumental in the establishment of Australia’s first
bank. On a personal note, I would love to have Elvis at one of my
events.”
Laureen L. Rego
Event Coordinator
Macquarie Securities
New York, N.Y.
“Andrew Young [former congressman and
ambassador to the United Nations, an ordained minister and human
rights activist]. I feel he is a great example of what we all
should strive for as far as his natural ability to relate and
interact in diverse situations globally.”
