Corporate Impostor Secrets Revealed
Australia’s most prolific comic speechmaker, Homer Papantonio, known universally as the Corporate Impostor, has over the last 17 years been baffling professional and commercial leadership types while amassing frequent flyer points.
Based on the Gold Coast, Homer has created hundreds of unique comic characters – all experts in their respective fields – for more than 1,200 conferences and special events. The message delivered by those Homeric characters is invariably remembered and widely repeated. The result is that many more people claim to have witnessed a Corporate Impostor performance than the total number of attendees.
The Corporate Impostor’s performances consistently earn Homer rave reviews from event organisers and their clients in every Australian State and Territory plus New Zealand, Fiji, Singapore, Indonesia, PNG, USA and some countries with names difficult to spell.
After launching his first book The Great Pretender. Homer has turned this book into a conference keynote combined with a riveting Character keynote and MC role for your next conference or special event. Yes, of course this session is sublimely funny, but it also contains valuable lessons on living the fully engaged life.
Homer tells the real story behind his role as The Great Pretender. He reveals the secrets of inducing belief and uncritical acceptance among highly educated audiences who hang on every word of fictional characters describing concepts such as the edible garlic information chip, the prickless pear and the rotationally moulded main battle tank.
Homer’s reign as the Corporate Impostor has been all about ensuring that organisations achieve their goals through entertaining, insightful and tailored comic speechmaking at their special conference or event.
