Having Stephan Mathys Speak to Your Group Is Like Bringing In an Interpreter Who Understands Both Languages.

The main issue most quants have with communication is they speak their own language – that almost nobody else in the world outside of their profession understands. That becomes a problem when these brilliant folks who are all about the data have to communicate with the outside world.

Not only is Stephan a card-carrying and experienced actuary, he is also an accomplished writer and communicator. He speaks the language of data, metrics, and technical jargon and knows how to translate that into the language that everyone else needs to be able to understand what that information means.

“Stephan connects with his audience in a way most speakers don’t because you can clearly see he really gets them. Even the fun parts and little jokes he told were relevant and the audience enjoyed the presentation immensely. Everyone left with a solid understanding of what to do and how to improve their communication skills. He delivered awesome value to our group. Great speaker!” – Felicia Slattery, Networking Today International Member, Knoxville, Tennessee
