About René Boender
Some people call him a “Brand booster”. Others call him a “Brain agent”, or a “Creator”. But even more significantly, all of them call him “Visionary” René; Boender’s professional domain is the world. He has spread his magic seeds of wisdom and humour from Orlando to Perth, New York to Cape Town, Lisbon to Milan, Davos to Washington DC and Dubai to Willemstad.
His work as Trendteller has been just as diverse as his travel — involved in brands ranging from Sara-Lee to Philips, Apple to Albron, Luminex to Disney, Coca-Cola to ING and projects ranging from Dreamworks (film AND TV) to Amusement parks. And the exciting thing is — the word is getting out! René is very much in demand as a participant on (inter)national symposia and is a guest lecturer at universities! He is also one of the keynote ‘Drivers’ and ‘Participants’ of the prestigious ‘Ootlook’.
René Boender isn’t a fountain of ideas, he’s a veritable gusher. A guru who knows what it takes. He inspires many global captains of industry in one-on-one sessions and knows how strike just the right chord with (BtB) consumers. He keeps track of virtually everything, and believes everything stands or falls through the power of communication. As you share time with him, you will find that he not only explains what ‘Was’, but — even more importantly — what will B-B-B-B

“Everyone very much appreciated Renate’s presentation. She has a pleasant appearance, and is very friendly and professional. Her presentation was an excellent starting point for our International Sales Meeting, in which the serious tone alternated with a healthy dose of humor and interaction, in a surprising and humorous way. In doing so, she sensed exactly what we needed for the warm up and was able to keep the attention of the group in a pleasant manner.”

"Most people come for the stars, the big names. But it is better to listen to the producers of the stars. The ones that makes them shine. That's what happened to the audience here in New York! René Boender is game, set and match in one energetic movement. His inspiring humour, know-how and the feeling that everyone can do it (what he just said) made me and everyone tick!"
Andres Jõesaar, Head of content services Tele2 Eesti AS
"René, thank you once more for the very good emotional and inspiring presentation you made at Pärnu Juhtimiskonverentsid. This was like a fresh air and bright light into the old conservative warehouse!"

It's easy to get impatient on your quest to be the best. After reading Great to Cool and visiting René’s keynote, I felt pumped up and ready for action! And then you wake up the next morning and things are pretty much the same! Until you feel the sweet brain candy is doing its work again (and again). When you're impatient and want to shake things up, you simply read it again and you start to change your business life! Thank you René, Great to Cool is an attitude!

"René Boender inspires and affirms you with his intelligence, authenticity, positive humour, depth and most of all compassion. He makes difficult issues easy to understand! And spreads his insights and energy to go for it."
David E. Karr, President Comfortaire Corporation
"I want to thank you for the time, energy and creativity that you shared with us!
I will admit that when my team said they had met a marketing “guru” and wanted to bring him to Greenville, I was not overly impressed. So, I was prepared for “another day of mediocrity” but as it turned out I was blessed with one of the best, most energizing days that I’ve ever experienced in business. You brought marketing alive in a way that I’ve not heard from others and I believe it is because you live it every day so that it is real, not a bunch of words. What was most impressive was that you brought an action plan for us to follow…not just a bunch of ideas. An action plan integrated into stimulating and actionable ideas was a gift for us. Your breadth of experience with high impact companies allows you to bring life to your presentation. I will honestly tell you that I look forward to working with you in the future .Thank you again for everything that you gave to us."
Jean-François Teillet, CEO
"Fabulous! Let me underline the great pleasure I have had to meet you and to attend to your conference speech in Miami, on the 26th of October."

Dear René, It was a big surprise to have you as a keynote performer.
Great to Cool is really written for performance. And engineered for success.
Unlike most management books, Great to Cool (and your keynote) sells you more than sleekly designed marketing
tricks. Great to Cools energizes a way of life and a way of being!
Kenneth I. Chenault Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, American Express
"Dear René, your speech was outstanding and breathtaking. You gave a Dutch Treat in International Marketing and Innovation a complete new meaning. As you can understand we are spoiled with all the keynotes(from former US presidents, Tom and Seth, and all the TED stuff) that we have had over the last couple of years! But you made it. Only a few people scored in the way you did. Thanks for your IQ & EQ To The Next Level keynote."
Paul Ladestein, Director European Operations
"René Boender, your brain cells will change color during his talk."
