What Clients Say

  • "Artie helped us bring attention to our company as an innovation leader by sponsoring a workshop breakfast during an international trade event. By making it quite participatory, he really changed up the 'trade show as usual' and engaged participants with each other. Artie challenged us to adapt some regular creative practices that we learned and I am personally committed to doing them."
    — Mark Crawford, Mont Blanc Gourmet

    "I recently had the pleasure of working with Artie on a major research initiative. He ran a series of complex and quite challenging brainstorms and work sessions. Participants were excited and happy to be involved the entire time — no small feat when each session lasted four hours. More importantly, we generated a tremendous amount of rich insights and business ideas. I recommend Artie without hesitation if you're looking for a unique and inspiring moderator."
    — Avin Narasimhan, Arnold Worldwide

    "Artie presented at our national corporate meeting. He met with our executive team in advance to understand requirements, developed a targeted presentation, and delighted everyone with his blend of business strategy and performance. I recommend Artie for any meeting where you need something more to engage while entertaining your teams.”
    — Kathryn Kendell, Crown Partners

    "Arriving Chevy Chase Bank in 2002, I presented Artie to earn the confidence of my new 412 employees. They LOVED him. (I loved him!) He challenged their paradigms and the status quo, re-igniting their passion. Artie is a magician. I’ve never seen anyone walk into a room and command as much thought-provoking insight on human behavior and how it relates to business and obtaining your goals."
    — Chas Roscow, Tactical Auto Training

    "Artie is a master at engaging people in group settings to draw out innovative and creative thinking. And he makes it fun."
    — Sherief Meleis, Novantas

    "We trust Artie's creative program design and improvisational instincts. His 2010 brainstorming sessions with retail personnel were instrumental in developing our innovative 24-Hour Grace™. So we again turned to Artie for more sessions this year, to help explore how to apply a core ethic of Huntington that could be our competitive advantage. We are delighted with the ideas generated during his productive sessions with our front-line bankers in key business segments."
    — Glen Zehr, Huntington National Bank

    "I've engaged Artie on projects for 10+ years. He's one of the most creative, personable and intelligent people I have ever worked with. He has the highest integrity, delivers on time, and exceeds all expectations."
    — Deborah Sutor, Huntington National Bank

    "Artie Isaac's articulateness, compassion and intelligence are simply unequaled. He has unmatched understanding of certain situations, of teachable moments, of drawing people out into learning arenas that they might not have discovered on their own. If you are considering hiring Artie Isaac, you should."
    — David Trautman, Park National Bank

    "Artie helps us think differently, enabling our perspectives and ideas to blossom beyond usual industry boundaries. His communication skills are unique and inspiring, lifting our team to new innovative heights."
    — Lee Lemke, Huntington National Bank

    "I knew he'd be the highlight of the day, and start us off on a thought-provoking, positive, be-your-best-self note. I was right. One leader remarked to me after the meeting, 'I don’t know anyone who thinks like that guy. I’m thinking about things I never thought of before. He was the best speaker we’ve ever had.' Artie lives his values, and brings them to everything he does. His humor, charm, integrity, intelligence, and quirkiness make him a real treasure."
    — Zoe Klopf Switzer, Goodwill Columbus

    "Everyone I spoke with that attended said that Artie was fabulous, and that they would definitely use some of his suggestions and ideas. Our only regret is spending a brief one hour with him. We wanted more!"
     — Keith Yun, State Auto Insurance

    "Artie spoke at a conference we held for approximately 400 non-profit executives. His session was packed. Some of the attendees' comments are: 'Artie's presentation was great — he's dynamic and the enthusiasm he shows is contagious.' 'Artie's session was great, as expected.' Artie's session received the most positive comments."
     — Debbie Beyer, Fifth Third Bank

    "Artie wowed our audience with a thought-provoking, entertaining and creative presentation. The audience loved his quirky ideas and funny and innovative visuals that aptly illustrated his thoughts. Without a doubt, one of CMC's best speakers and we host more than 100 speakers every year. You can't miss with him!"
     — Jane Scott, Columbus Metropolitan Club

    "Artie Isaac is someone I admire greatly. He exudes tangible charisma and exhibits impeccable character. He is confident yet humble, energetic yet peaceful, brilliant yet filled with a child-like curiosity that enables him to see the world in completely different ways. He is both explorer and teacher, mentor and student. He seems to live life in a way that most of us want to, but never quite figure out how to do. He is a generous, brilliant, and thoroughly delightful person. I learn from him every day and continue to improve my life by learning from his."
    — David E. Bowman, LUCRUM, Inc.

    "Artie Isaac is an incredible facilitator. His unique skill set (gained from experiences in corporate conference rooms, in college classrooms, and on theatre stages), along with his unique style (a blend of good humor and sensitivity), create an environment where the great ideas and insights are developed. He trains and encourages — to unlock the creativity of battle-hardened people who have been unexpectedly called upon to think imaginatively."
    — Glen Zehr, Huntington National Bank
