How Did the Talk Impact You?

Trooper Ben did an outstanding job speaking to our group of rural students before our week-long trip to Washington, D.C. As our first speaker, he truly set the tone for the entire experience. His message about safety and situational awareness was both relevant and impactful, especially as our students prepared to travel to a large, unfamiliar city. What stood out most was how relatable and engaging he was with our student leaders. He connected with them in a genuine way, making his guidance easy to understand and apply. His practical advice, combined with his approachable style, ensured the students were not only attentive but also confident as they began their trip.

Trooper Ben's Go & Grow was the best keynote I've heard in a very long time. A powerfully deep message that hit home and tugged at the heart strings, but somehow also brought joy and laughter at the same time. A message for everyone of all ages and at all stages of life!

Trooper Ben is a great speaker who draws in his audience from the get go. The most touching for me was his growing up years. Struggling in school, wondering where he got in. Having a son who struggles, my only complaint is that I didn’t bring him to hear the talk. Hoping we can have Trooper Ben back at Plainville soon, talking to our students

You did amazing explaining the concerns of your job (before your retired)and our jobs. You have the ability to calmly elaborate the actions that need to be taken for safety and what would be required under certain guidelines. You enlighten people!

Trooper Ben was amazing to listen to! He not only talked about things that were relevant to the event, but also brought in some of his personal events that went with what was being taught at the event. Amazing to have as a speaker! Would love to be at another event that he speaks at!

Such great messages for our young people! I often think about the story you shared about the social media post and how much impact they can have. Keep doing such awesome work!

I have attended 3 different events with Trooper Ben over the years. As a 911 Dispatcher at a conference, and twice as a community event in Osborne and Beloit. Every one of them has been inspiring and fun. I hope to attend more in the future!

One of the best instructors I've ever had the pleasure to learn from. Truly cares about what he does!

Trooper Ben, I absolutely loved your presentation. We don't take the time to slow down enough and enjoy life. Your message was inspiring! My family says I love you every time we talk or see each other. It's refreshing to hear someone else say how important it is to say and hear. Thank you again! God bless.
