"Roddy Chong is an excellent speaker and morale builder. He has had great achievements in his life, but is humble. He did a great job of artfully explaining how his perseverance really paid off for him. He talked about seizing opportunities. His willingness to open up to the group about his thought process, successes and failures was very beneficial. What an inspiring individual! Our group truly enjoyed interacting with Roddy and having Roddy as a speaker."

"On behalf of the Broadcasting Board of Governors, Intl. Broadcasting Bureau, and Office of Civil Rights I would like to say thank you to Roddy Chong for serving as our Keynote Speaker at this year's "Asian American History Month" Commemorative Program. I have continued to receive high praise from program participants about Roddy's inspiring story and message on how "Little Jobs Lead to Big Time Opportunities." Also, his wonderful violin playing was mesmerizing. Roddy was the best speaker we have ever had for this program and he made it a great success!"

Roddy Chong was an amazing, engaging, and dynamic speaker/presenter for
my 2009 Leadership Forum. Armed with a fascinating story, intertwined
with music that bought out a myriad of emotions for my attendees, Roddy
was able to blend important life lessons with the sizzle that you hope
to find in a keynote speaker.
In addition to his on-stage presence, Roddy was also a pleasure to work
with as a planner. His attention to detail, follow-up, and accessibility
during the planning process are unmatched.
I whole-heartedly recommend Roddy. You won't be disappointed.

“We had the privilege of having Roddy Chong speak to our employees, where we had a standing- room-only crowd. The content was relevant for anyone as you think of growing and developing yourself as a person and as a professional. Roddy’s experience is very broad, and he taught us how to understand where our strengths lie and how to present those strengths to the world. You could tell by his speech and by his performance that he really is a rock star, yet has a humbleness about him and can relate well to any type of person. At the end, we all stood up and clapped because we were extremely inspired and motivated to go after things. On behalf of our organization, we really appreciated Roddy being here at Kraft Foods.”
Gil Delasalas, Senior Director of Human Resources, Kraft Foods
“The buzz around the building after Roddy’s presentation was undeniable! Roddy certainly set the
bar for future events. As one attendee put it...this is the first council event that ‘kept people so mesmerized’ that ‘no one left their chairs for the whole hour-and-a-half’. Thanks Roddy!”
