I am a big fan of Christmas. So much so, I have collected over 20 glühwein (hot mulled wine) Christmas mugs over the years. They are fantastic! (so is the glühwein) When I was a kid I used to make my own Christmas trees. There was a styrofoam version, pinecones, wall panel, even one made of Star Wars paraphernalia. (The Star Wars Holiday Special was a one-star heap of television trash, so perhaps that's where I got the misguided inspiration as a seven-year-old.) The R2-D2 We Wish You a Merry Christmas song is as bad as it gets. Anyway, back to the point. There are all sorts of Christmas songs that I look forward to spinning every December. Here is a 10-pack of some of my favourite Christmas tunes. Merry Christmas to those that celebrate. (and Happy Holidays to those who celebrate something else)

We are so proud to have had you at our event. Your talk was a big hit. It moved us. We can’t thank you enough.

Malin Björnell, Salesforce
Dan challenged us to have clarity of purpose, both as individuals and as an organization. He related inspiring stories drawing on his experience in business, technology and academia. As he said, ‘There is no ownership without belonging.’

Christian Pantel, D2L
Fantastic engaging talk for our global partner summit. Thank you so much, Dan!

Barb Kinnard, CEO Response Biomedical Corp
Dan not only brought his presentation to life with his charisma, but also content, style and presentation finesse. Our members were especially interested in his thought provoking and top of mind topic on the future of work and how we’re going to be leading the next generation of leaders.

Cheryl Goodwin, CPA
Dan is a conference organizer’s ideal speaker. Not only did he inspire and energize our group, but he also masterfully adapted his content so it resonated with the audience and our conference theme. As a bonus, Dan is able to nimbly navigate to adjust to a reduced time slot when other speakers went over time without sacrificing the impact of his session.

Director and General Counsel
Dan accomplished what we set out to do, which was not only to be inspirational, but also to leave everyone with tools and food for thought / self-reflection to improve their personal and professional lives.

Hermann Handa, FCT
