"After seeing Mike Lannen’s presentation at the NSAA and SKI NY-PA Expo in 2023, I knew our team at Greek Peak would benefit from an onsite A.I. Bootcamp with him. Mike engages his audience well and connects complex concepts across multiple departments. He was well-prepared, addressing our specific needs ahead of his visit, and explained new ideas and solutions in a way that empowered us to set projects into motion. I highly recommend Mike as a presenter for any seminar, workshop, or webinar, with extra value in having him onsite to facilitate actionable takeaways."
