Adam Rodricks Speaking Testimonials

Adam Rodricks greeted every single member of our crew personally, even climbing to the top of the hall to thank the camera guy for his hard work. Fast forward to the end of his (spectacular) talk and the entire hall rises in ovation. Adam turns his back to the audience and starts clapping too.
