With his down-to-earth style and presence he reached the hearts and minds of the members of our diverse multi-cultural organization to see change as an opportunity. “Oh Yeah” was authentic, inspirational and memorable. It was easy to understand and follow his positive, energetic, very professional and also entertaining speech. Everyone in the organization was inspired to take ownership of the change process, allowing change to make way for a better life and a brighter future. This paved the way for one of the best Kick-off conferences we have held for our Global Salon Business Organization and ignited the positive mindset for the way we will experience change in the future – not only in business but also in our private lives. The positive feedback was overwhelming – big Thanks to you Ilja.”

From first contact, he was easy to work with and his preparation was immaculate, he worked seamlessly with our conference production company and was generally very easy to get along with – a very likeable individual with a good, positive and constructive message. Just what we’d been looking for!”
