Recent Comments about Dr Schwarz

It gives me great pleasure to write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Robert Schwarz.  Robert performed exceptionally well when he worked for Daiichi Sankyo. He presented “Cultivating Cultures that Sustain Women for the Long Haul: Lessons from Mars and Venus”. He captivated and engaged Daiichi Sankyo employees for the full sixty minutes. He effectively highlighted gender differences that exist in the workplace and provided numerous solutions for overcoming these differences. The presentation was not only useful, but it was entertaining as well! Robert is an excellent presenter who can combine wisdom with humor.

I really enjoyed working with Robert. He was flexible and worked diligently with the Women Forum Committee members to ensure all of our goals and objectives were met in his presentation. I would highly recommend him for your program.

Dear Bob

Thank you most sincerely for making the 2006 Business Practices meeting a great success. Your insights on communication and miscommunication were wonderful. They were well received by the audience and helped to make this a memorable event for all.

Dear Bob,

Thank you very much for your presentations at the 2005 Alabama AGD meeting at the Sandestine Beach Resort. I think the true test of a speaker’s ability is to hold the audience’s attention on a gorgeous afternoon at the beach and not have one person sneak off for some R and R. And, that is exactly what happened at your workshop. We hope to see you back real soon.

Dear Bob

Thank you very much for the wonderful presentations. We received excellent feedback from the 125 audience members. It was a great combination of useful information and humorous examples of how men and women differ. I have used some of the information myself and it has been helpful. The improvisational performance that you and the actors
put on to bring out the different aspects of the Mars and Venus Material was a resounding success. You have an engaging style that was popular with the audience. The stimulating presentation was lucid and compelling well interspersed with stylish graphics, humor and audience participation.

To Whom it may concern

Dr Robert Schwarz presented a workshop entitled Cultivating Creativity innovation and Connection at the Renfrew Center Foundation Conference Nov 2005. His presentation received among the highest rankings of our program. Bob’s combination of Humor and delivery of important information made this workshop wonderful. We plan to bring him back in 2006 to present his material to the entire conference.

Hi Bob,

Just wanted to write a note and let you know how GREAT the Mars and Venus session went at our Executive Conference. We have heard back from our attendees and they really enjoyed the session and thought it was extremely valuable.

I also want to let you know that I appreciate how flexible you were with how you presented your material. You really listened to my request to let the panelist talk about their experiences first and then responding with insight from the Mars and Venus workplace. The session really flowed well and it had a great balance of audience and panelist participation.

Also, please feel free to give my name and contact information to anyone who would like a reference on your seminar.

Dear Dr. Schwarz,

On behalf of the American Academy of Dental Group Practice I just want to thank you for your great keynote presentation at our 2005 annual conference in New Orleans. “Mars and Venus in the Dental Office” was highly rated and well received by all those at the conference. On our meeting evaluation forms attendees commented that your presentation was “fabulous” and “ I learned a lot to take back to the office”. Thank you so much for sharing this great topic and information with us.

Most Sincerely,

Dear Bob,

Well I did not think it was possible that you could have been better than your last presentation, but I was wrong. The Maryland event was fantastic. The Mars and Venus in the workplace material was great again. We received perfect feedback scores (5 out of 5) from just about everyone. It was great to watch you engage the audience during the keynote address section. You see the people were very much taking in the information.

It was fascinating to watch the creativity training workshop using the improv. I could see the similarities with the performance version of last month. I now understand your point that the workshop approach lends itself more to engendering creativity itself.

I highly recommend the Mars Venus Workplace material to organizations desirous of improving the productivity of their people. I can just as easily recommend the creativity training through improv workshop for organizations that want to help their people think outside the box. You made sure that everyone felt safe and included so that they could explore their creative potentials. Keep up the good work. I look forward to sponsoring you again.

Dear Bob,

Thank you again for your engaging presentation of Mars And Venus at Work at our monthly ASTD chapter meeting. The evaluations of the meeting were very positive, though we didn't even need to review them to know the meeting was a success.

We enjoyed the video Clips, the interactive aspects of the program and especially how it raised our awareness of how to better understand and work with the Martians and Venusians in our lives.

You presented a dynamic program and I would not hesitate to recommend into other organizations

Dear Elaine and Bob,

On behalf of the NJPQCA, I would like to take this opportunity to say what a great privilege it was to attend, and thank you for the Mars and Venus in the Workplace Seminar you provided to our members. It was a dynamic, thought provoking and result oriented session! You are an outstanding team and it was a joy to watch you present in your enthusiastic spirit! The NJPQCA is still talking about how wonderful the seminar was and how much they got out of it. We're all looking forward to another round next year. We realize how busy you both were and still you managed to put this together in such fine fashion for us in such a short time. While I personally enjoyed it all, I particularly thought the examples you gave were the most fun and beneficial to the membership. The coaching opportunities it brought out for us to take back to our workplaces were tremendous and I know we truly got the most from it. We also enjoyed your positive outlook throughout the seminar! The day was an outstanding success in every way, primarily due to your approach, organizational abilities, creativity, warmth and interpersonal skills. I believe the lessons you taught us are critical to the success of our Program and we send you our gratitude and thanks.

Once again, it was a pleasure to watch you and your enthusiasm as well as the positive sprit you presented. The NJPQCA hopes to utilize your talents in future programs. Thanks for the education!

With gratitude and thanks,

Dear Mary,

We just hosted Dr. Robert Schwarz to do some Mars/Venus workshops on family communication. He was terrific and I highly recommend him to you. In just three short hours he gave a lot of information on gender differences and how respecting those differences and using that knowledge appropriately can enhance intimate relationships. It's a great prevention program because no one who uses his recommendations could become abusive. His workshop was greatly enjoyed by everyone who attended and everyone came away with practical information they could immediately put to use. Participants found him to be a warm, comfortable person to be around and almost immediately responded to the material presented.

To whom it may concern:

Robert A. Schwarz was the keynote speaker at the 2003 annualconference of the American Association of Office Nurses.

Dr. Schwarz pleased our audience of office nurses immensely. He held their attention for 90 minutes during the keynote address and later in the day conducted a well attended workshop where they were taught how to put what they learned to use in their medical practices and family situations. Our attendees gave Dr. Schwarz very favorable reviews.

We heartily recommend Dr. Schwarz for any medical association where the Mars Venus differences create problems. Dr. Schwarz is insightful, humorous, and entertaining.

Sincerely,
Michelle Aronowitz, Managing Director
American Association of Office Nurses


Dear Dr Schwarz,

Thank you so much for speaking at the Pennsylvania Chamber's 2002 Annual Human Resources Conference . People told us the education was superb and that they walked away with a better understanding of gender differences.

It was a pleasure having you on the program.
