John MacDonald has represented the City of Missoula at the Montana Legislature for multiple sessions and has done so with remarkable professionalism and effectiveness. John is trusted on both sides of the aisle because he’s always fair, reasonable and honest. He’s a great communicator, advocate and adviser and, because of his work, we’ve helped make good things happen for the residents I serve and helped stop bad things from happening to our city and state.

Our customers work hard every day to build their businesses and to take care of their families. We want to do whatever we can to contribute to those goals and are constantly looking for opportunities to do more to add value. By introducing John to our clients, we were able to help them to protect all they have built and to be better equipped to survive an unexpected disaster (in whatever form the disaster arises). John’s expertise and experience helped to make our customers stronger and more resilient as they focus on their futures.

John MacDonald and Shannon Berg’s media training has been extremely valuable in getting Zillow executives prepared to engage with reporters. Their best practice, hands-on approach to media training helps shape messaging around key topics, and elevates the skills of even the most practiced spokesperson.

We engaged with John to prepare our leadership team for media interactions, specifically being interviewed for broadcast news. John took a vested interest in not only the success of our individual team members but of our company as a whole. Lessons learned in our day-long training with John have paid huge dividends. I would recommend engaging John MacDonald for your communication training needs to any of my colleagues.
