Your energy is on another level Marco! It's amazing how unpredictable your presentations are! Super creative and great choice of metaphors and visuals and a lot of humour make you stand out! Keep going!! 😊

Hugo Barbosa

Your ability to be provocative in a nice manner, while showing up as knowledgeable and structured was really impressive. You have truly mastered the art of keeping it fresh, funny, and still interesting and credible!

Joana Santos

Marco is a special person and I don't say that about many people. He uses creativity to solve the simplest problems and aces storytelling, which says a lot about his capability for sharing his vision and bringing people along for the challenge.

Marsden Kline

Co-Founder

Thoughtfully told, these unfiltered glimpses into the lives of strangers remind us all we can learn from slowing down and talking to one another. Heartfelt inspiration for your coffee table. You will be so thankful to have put your phone down and picked up this book.

Becky Thalmann

CEO-Founder

It's a collection of stories about how leaders show up (imperfectly). Marco is a funny writer who offers unique perspective about who people really are that creates powerful, inspiring collection of stories. It's easy to read on the train to/from work or sitting in the car waiting for kids instead of scrolling. It's a form of mediation and a tool to embrace our imperfections.

Melis Altinoluk

DATA detective

When you give a presentation, your authenticity and passion shine through. You have a unique capacity to connect with others on a personal level, making complex issues more approachable and interesting. I would tell a friend that your presentations are not only instructive, but also transforming.

Alexander de Wit

Founder, Little Gym

Marco, I love how your presentations are presents. You share your passion and your best practice knowledge with people and you always strive to adapt to your audience to make it even more impactful. It’s never about you, always about helping others.

Mariam Kone

Manager, Coca-Cola

Your talent for breaking down complex topics into easily digestible pieces is truly admirable. Your passion, authenticity, and deep knowledge shine through when you speak, captivating and inspiring your audience. Your ability to navigate through diverse moods is incredible.

Gonçalo Gaiolas

Chief Product Officer

Diving into this book felt like having a heart-to-heart with a cherished friend over a cup of hot cocoa. It’s cozy, soothing, and brimming with tales that reassure us it's perfectly fine to trip over our shoelaces from time to time.

Lois McKenzie

Consultant

Marco is a breath of fresh air. His philosophies on the business of AI really give me hope for the future of business as we know it. If you have the chance to hire him for an event, RUN don't walk. Chances like that don't come around very often. He's exactly the kind of person the corporate world needs, and they needed him yesterday.

Mariah Edmondson

Global Marketing Director

A story teller that takes the audience along for the ride. Super pragmatic and relatable … never a lecture. Humour and the ability to make topics relevant and actionable. Ah ha moments peppered throughout.

Jay Nagrecha

Start-up Founder

1. Captivate the audience by mixing seriousness with humour.

Sonal Bhaskaran

Director - UBS

I saw a video of you speaking and it was the energy and fire you brought with you that kept me engaged Really felt the passion and knowledge you had and what you wanted people to learn from it all.

Helio Fujita

SVP HR Executive

I really appreciate Marco's bias to action approach, making things practical, keeping it honest and love the playfulness / humor he brings to his presentations.

Lee-Anne Zinetti

Senior Director, Novartis

You don't present, you communicate - by talking with the audience, laughing with them, being real. You look like you’re genuinely having fun so ppl forget they’re sitting in a presentation, rather instead like they’re catching up with an old friend/colleague and learning something new about the world.

Manuel Román Cantón

Marketing Director at Netflix

Marco is the very definition of a transformational marketing executive. His strength comes from his deep knowledge of traditional marketing, coupled with his broad digital experience. I first witnessed this when Marco built an incredible marketing operation in Portugal in the early days of digital marketing. He then went on to help transform some of the world’s most valuable consumer brands, which make me highly recommend him as the brand-builder that every team or business needs.

Brian Robbins

VP, Novartis

I’ve worked with Marco as his client, peer and manager. He has a track record of helping marketers build on their foundations and stretch into new territories — from the early days of digital marketing to his recent work on generative AI. Above all, he’s excellent at driving human connections.

Pedro Pina

VP, Head of YouTube EMEA

Marco is a marketeer at heart with a suave quality that hypnotises both clients and his teams. His emotional intelligence - in particular his empathy and his intuition - are powerful weapons to win the hearts and minds of clients and Googlers.

Tejal Vishalpura

SVP Marketing, Novo Nordisk

Witnessing your rise as a global thought leader at the intersection of AI, Marketing, and Healthcare is a true joy. Your journey is a powerful reminder of the boundless possibilities that emerge when we believe in and bring out the best in each other - the profound difference we can make in each other’s lives even in a short time.

Claudio Truzzi

AI Forum Director, The Conference Board

Available, passionate, unfiltered, authentic, energetic, unique, insightful" - these are the words often used to describe Marco, and I wholeheartedly agree. What truly sets Marco apart is his remarkable consistency. In a world filled with uncertainty, Marco's steadfast nature is a rare and comforting presence.

Elen Barber

I attended Marco's talk on Gen AI. He's a fantastic speaker. His energy is contagious and he captivated the audience right from the beginning. He navigated through intricate concepts, providing clear insights and real-world examples that inspired the audience to know more - and do more.

Wellington Cardoso

Associate Vice-Chair, Columbia University

Marco’s deep knowledge of his trade (AI, Marketing) makes him deliver complex subjects with the ease of those great storytellers, who are able to keep an audience of experts and lay people equally thrilled. Not many people can do that, and Marco does it with the spontaneity of a virtuoso musician or performer.

Alyssa Fenoglio

Marco's keynote at NextPharma 2024 was eye-opening. His expertise on AI trends and organizational implementation is truly remarkable.

Erika Lovegreen

SVP Marketing, ICUC-Dentsu

I can't recommend Marco enough for a workshop or any thought leadership you need around AI for your business. From using real-world relevant examples, to a little honest self-deprecation from his personal experiences, all of our team members felt comfortable getting vulnerable with and inspired by Marco.

Sammy Rashed
