Testimonials

"I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Lanton in several capacities. He helped me in the early days of my career by giving an eager somewhat green speaker the chance to present and speak. He was always full of encouragement and support and wanted nothing more then me to be successful. I was also able to see him present to a variety of audiences and the thing that always shone through was his desire to serve. His passion, his heart, his love, his skill, they all come from a place of service. His focus is always on how he can best be of service to those his is working with and not how those he is working with can be of service to him. It’s such a rare thing to find in today’s world. In whatever capacity you have the opportunity to work with Lanton, do it. It will be in your best interest to do so because that’s what he strives to do – serve those around him."

A powerful presenter that delivers his message with passion, energy, honesty, support and has a way of connecting people, really shows why Lanton is a great leader. He spoke to our membership from the heart and they were engaged with his message by the way he interacts with the group. Lanton brought people together that never met and they developed a relationship by learning about each other and that created a great community with the group that Lanton talks about. You can also see the trust level increase. The conversations the members were having, connecting with one another and caring about the other person, a community was developing in the room, thanks to Lanton. I highly recommend Lanton and the power of C4 Leadership – A Difference Maker!
