What a priviledge to have Octavio as a speaker at our school. He shares so much knowledge and wisdom about living an intentional life. The response is always great, and our students mention him as one of their favorites year after year.

Octavio is compassionate, hilarious, and invested in helping others reach their potential. He has a heart for those who are often forgotten, whether a college student struggling to find his or her confidence, a former addict looking to make a change, or a refugee searching for support.

Rachael Berg-Martinez, Ph.D.

Licensed Clinical Psychologist

I have worked in leadership development with Octavio both in Europe and in the US, with leaders from around the world. He is an extraordinary speaker with a tremendous ability to tell stories in such a way that draws every listener into a journey with him.

Adaumir Nascente Director of Care Operations Unitymedia

I look back at the day I met him in 1987 and know with certainty that it was one of the most pivotal introductions in my life.

Anthony Valentino Th.M. IT Director

La Mirada, California

I have known Octavio for several years and had the opportunity to work with him in 2016. Octavio may be the best network builder I have ever come across. His ability to create trust in the people he encounters is unique.

 

Octavio also has a strategic mind and has helped us put together a strategy on how to work in California.  I would take any opportunity I have to work with him again.

Håkon Skaug, Oslo, Norway

There is nothing more exciting than entering a new and exciting journey, except for doing the journey with a trusted and wise companion. If there is something I simply need wise and honest input on, Octavio is where I turn. 

I have worked many years with Octavio and believe that he is a visionary, and leader who pushes himself and others around him.
