Daniel Burrus is a strategic advisor to many Fortune 500 companies and a highly successful entrepreneur who has founded and managed five businesses, two of which were national leaders in the first year.

"Your presentation to our staff was very well received and created a 'new optimism' for agriculture's future. The feedback I received not only praised the presentation's content, but also your lively and entertaining presentation skills. As you know, the farming industry needs a little sunshine. You certainly shared a few 'rays of hope'."
