"Steve is one of the most creative, engaging and genuine people I know.  He's an amazing business strategist, an engaging speaker and a master connector of people.  He's been a trusted 'go to' resource for me and he's never steered me wrong. I am truly blessed to count him as a friend and mentor."

Working with Steve has been incredible! His concept of making authentic connections with people is brought to life by his fun and applicable storytelling style. Thanks to Steve our organization has gained tremendous value by creating genuine relationships with the people in it. Ripple on!

Steve Harper is a master connector and is someone who practices what he preaches. Steve knows the power of genuine connection and goes out of his way to engage and connect with people around him. It seems the man knows everyone, is everywhere and is involved in everything. Yet he always has time for people and makes everyone feel important. How? He has a genuine interest in people and is passionate about helping people connect and empowering them to be better connectors.

For anyone who has ever questioned the difference one person can make, Steve is proof that the difference can be huge. The Ripples created by Steve, in just my own life, are countless. I’ve learned from him by way of his book, his classes, and most inspiringly, his example. Steve knows the magic of connection and is making the world a brighter, happier, more connected place, one ripple at a time.

How do you help the most people and make the biggest impact on the world? If you are Steve Harper, you perfect the craft of meaningful connection, then go out into the world and share what you know.

Everyone agrees networking is important and we all know we could be better communicators and have stronger connections. Steve’s classes go beyond what we all know as “networking” - taking it from a skill we think we should be better at, to a process that’s fun, interesting and makes our entire lives richer. When you fully grasp the power of The Ripple Effect, your life won’t ever be the same.

“Steve is an excellent speaker! We used his services for a local industry-wide training where we learned how to ‘Ripple’ and we had a great time getting to know one another while having fun! We would definitely hire him again and recommend him to others. Thanks Steve!”

"Steve is one of the most gracious and committed individuals I've ever met. He is always willing to put other people first and truly lives the example of creating positive Ripples out there in the world. Mr. Ripple is a gift to anyone lucky enough to work with him or play in his universe for a little while. Do yourself a favor and meet this man. Invite him to speak to your company or next conference!"

" Steve Harper is a dynamic speaker who touches upon how we as humans can make the world a better place to live. His message about The Ripple Effect is wisdom that we should all embrace to cultivate both honest and lasting personal and professional relationships and partnerships.  We were extremely pleased to hear Mr. Harper speak at one of our conferences this year. The audience was captivated by his presentation and left the conference making references to his message."

I’ve had the pleasure of sitting in Steve’s audience on two different occasions. The first time I was attending a conference where Steve was the keynote. Engaging the audience and stressing the importance of real meaningful relationships, Steve’s Ripple Effect struck a chord. Offering multiple techniques to open communication with people, Steve gives you the tools to engage new customers and strengthen existing relationships. Steve and I realized we shared several unique connections, we live in the same town, our sons play soccer at competing schools, and we exercise at the same city park on the same trail. Several years later I was responsible for putting together education for a conference and Steve was my first choice. I was not disappointed; Steve put together a combination keynote/workshop that set the tone for the rest of the conference. People continue to talk about Steve’s message over a year after the conference. Steve Harper and his Ripple Effect training reinforce that strong meaningful relationships can not only take you places, it can take you everywhere. Systematically doing little things to create and strengthen personal and professional relationships can have a huge impact on your success and happiness. I would enthusiastically recommend Steve for your next conference.
