Fire Service Instructor — Leadership and Officer Development

I have had the good fortune of having Jim speak on several occasions as a speaker, instructor, and master of ceremonies. Jim is a gifted speaker — kind, compassionate, and engaging with whatever audience is before him. At the IAFF Local 80 100-year anniversary, Jim guided our room of over 500 guests and dignitaries with grace and humor, to the appreciation of all attendees. Jim stands far above the majority in his abilities. Should you choose Jim as a speaker, you cannot go wrong.

The feedback SEPA received from members regarding the value Jim brings as a speaker and trainer was tremendous. Jim consistently creates a safe environment where people feel confident to ask questions and actively participate. His presentation style is engaging, and his use of humor keeps audiences craving more. At the end of every session there was a line-up of people wanting to talk to Jim to learn more. I could not endorse a speaker with higher regard than I have for Jim Brayshaw.
