“We decided to host a Stress Less Laugh More presentation with Anthony Ackroyd to realise the benefits of a healthier workforce where people are productive and feel engaged, motivated and valued.
We had high expectations and Anthony far exceeded them. Whilst Anthony was hilariously funny, he has a unique ability to engage the audience and elicit an emotional response. A huge success and rave reviews received from all who participated.
I thank Anthony for sharing with us some of his key tools to laughing more and stressing less. We highly recommend Anthony for any corporate engagement you may be seeking.”

“Anthony is an engaging, enlightening and extremely funny presenter. The conference evaluations rated him so highly that if we respond to audience feedback he will have to be a permanent fixture on the program for future conferences. They loved him! As convenor I found Anthony extremely organised, reliable and prepared, a convenor’s dream. He is simply fantastic!”

Thanks Anthony. Your role as MC at our Product of the Year Awards not only ensured that the evening ran smoothly but that our guests were able to enjoy the awards with the delightful element of humour thrown into the evening mix.

Sensational! My client requested a person who could guarantee a good laugh out of a group of tired corporate delegates. Someone who can put a bit of “Oomph” into it, he said. Well, with these criteria in mind the choice seemed obvious and as expected Anthony delivered with guaranteed oomph!
Corporate Conference International
“Anthony delivered three informative, engaging and valuable sessions during the day, with extremely positive feedback received. Anthony not only delivered the workshops in a professional and engaging manner, but took the time to align the workshop content with the SCA’s cultural change initiatives. Highly recommended.”
Sydney Catchment Authority
“After a stressful year for the sector, we thought Anthony would be just the tonic. We were sensationally correct. Feedback from our members is glowing with many managers wanting a happy and harmonious workplace which increases productivity sending whole groups for laughter training. On a personal level people have remarked on the wonderful experience and the lessons to be learnt. From ATEM’s viewpoint a harmonious workplace is creative, optimistic and resourceful. Anthony is very funny, as a session with such a title should be, but he immerses it with the science of laughter and presents it with an exuberant, high-spirited and enthusiastic energy. We highly recommend this program.”
The Association for Tertiary Education Management (ATEM)
“The greatest testament to the power of Anthony’s flawless presentation is that our people have continued to use the information he gave us to get solid, tangible results.”
Security Mail
“Anthony’s Stress Less Laugh More sessions were amazing. As you would expect we did a lot of laughing – but Anthony is way more than just an outstanding highly acclaimed comedian. His insight and practical tips on reducing stress left a lasting impression on all of our staff. Absolutely brilliant and practical!”
Horizon Foundation
“Stress Less Laugh More was an entertaining and educational way of understanding how to get great personal and professional outcomes by thinking and acting differently. The combination of Anthony’s comedic talent and extensive research resulted in a powerful and enriching experience. In response to this workshop with my management team, I have been appointed the ‘Stress Less Laugh More’ ambassador, with a mission of ensuring humour is a component of each of our meetings.”

Thank you Anthony. Your act was seen by many as the highlight of the afternoon and certainly set the mood for the evening function. Your humour and delivery are an art form not achieved by many comedians today. I appreciated your efforts to direct your performance to help us fulfil our goals for the event.

Dear Anthony. Thank you for providing some great entertainment at our recent Annual Management Conference. Your comedy spot after dinner was one of the highlights of our conference and a terrific way to finish the evening. The 200 strong audience of our senior managers from all over the world found your style of entertainment very funny and you even got them all singing at the end. Well done and thanks again!

Dear Anthony. Re: AMP Investments Breakfast
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your outstanding performance at the AMP Investments breakfast. We were all impressed with your ability to successfully complete both the MC’s role and your excellent set. Thanks again for your assistance in what was a wildly successful event!!

Anthony proved himself to be a complete professional. Not only did we call him some 8 hours before the gig, but with the briefest brief he hit a perfect chord with our audience. What’s more he was incredibly funny without offending anyone. A hard act to pull off when the audience includes the General Manager, Directors, Senior Management right through to Sales Representatives, and the ages differ some 30 years. So with very little effort from ourselves Anthony managed to turn a quiet dinner at a restaurant into one of the best evenings of our conference. He is a comic genius!

Anthony Ackroyd was recommended to me and performed to an audience of 40 sales professionals with very high expectations. Anthony’s delivery was nothing short of sensational. He is a gifted comedian with superb talent and an innate ability to include the audience. Without exception my sales team were on a high after Anthony’s act and to this day still comment on the night.

The TCA asked Anthony Ackroyd to present his show as part of the Association’s Annual Dinner. He had the full attention of the crowd of some 315 people who laughed and laughed and laughed. Surely the best possible recommendation for any comedian. The reponse since that evening has been one of universal agreement that it was TCA’s best event ever. I have no doubt that the performance of Anthony was the main reason for that. I therefore have no problems in recommending him to anybody considering using his vast talents.
Territory Construction Association
Anthony Ackroyd is one of the most extraordinary talents we have. Hilarious, yes. But also massively intelligent and sharp as a knife. His ability to connect with an audience as speaker, comedian and MC are exceptional. We would recommend Anthony to any client wanting the best.
