Dr. Bart A. Basi is a nationally recognized expert on matters of

strategic planning, mergers and acquisitions,

tax aspects of business decisions, and

financial decision making.

It doesn’t matter whether your group/association is small, medium or large; Dr. Basi has addressed groups of all sizes in venues throughout the United States, Mexico and Canada. Format for the meetings can vary from workshop to seminar to formal presentation. Dr. Basi will bring enlightenment on many topics to the members of your group/association.

Dr. Basi’s credentials underscore his performance whenever he addresses an audience. Educated at some of the best schools in the country (Syracuse University, University of Louisville, Indiana University, and Stanford University), he holds degrees in Accounting, Finance, Economics and Law. Besides being a retired university professor, he is a CPA and a lawyer specializing in business transactions. He lectures, writes, researches and advises throughout the United States. He is the author of several books and has published hundreds of articles on business topics.

Evaluations of his performances as a speaker are very high. Recently, following two workshops, participants were asked if they would recommend the workshop to others. They responded in the positive 96% at one workshop and 100% at a second workshop! Asked to rate the quality of the workshop, on a scale of 1-4, 4 being “excellent,” respondents replied 4.5 for the 1^st workshop and 4.81 for the second! You can’t beat having a speaker who is better than “Excellent!”

Typical comments received over the years regarding Dr. Basi’s help and advice include:

“Many welding distributors …have appreciated your advice over the years as my father and our family has.”

“…it’s clear that your appearances had an impact on our group. I heard only positive things about your session on business valuation. And the fact that you spent time on an individual basis with so many members in the exhibit hall…was phenomenal!’….”Thanks again for your valuable contribution to the success of our …convention.”

“(Dr. Basi’s) knowledge is unparalleled and his presentation style is dynamic, interactive and entertaining. You certainly get your money’s worth with Bart.”

Our members flock to his programs because they know they will get a “meaty” program full of take-home and ‘put into immediate use” tips. I think the real success of a speaker is shown by the number of folks that stay after a presentation to pick his brain and in this case, Bart is like the Pied Piper- they can’t get enough of him.”

“A number of positive comments were received from those in attendance at both of the sessions concerning your obvious command of the subject matter, and the caliber of your presentation.”

“Once again you were a hit! You are becoming a welcomed permanent fixture at Expo”

“SUPER SUPER DUPER!!!! Thanks so much for delivering two highly charged seminars to an attentive audience at the …convention in New Orleans. You really dazzled them! ….all I heard from everyone was how terrific you are and what a polished presentation you deliver. In addition to presenting your material in a way which is easy to understand and can “sink in” peoples mind(s), you have a great wit which delighted the audience!”

“The meeting evaluations are rolling in daily and, as always, you get wonderful marks. (We are) very fortunate to have you as a resource; our members really value the advice you give them. (Our Association) always enjoys working a conference with you as well.”

“Our Spring Conference offered one of the finest educational programs it has been our pleasure to present and you were the star performer. Your presentation at the opening session was well received and set the serious tone and mood for two days of productive workshops. We’re very grateful to you for your outstanding work.”

“We have never had such outstanding comments on a convention speaker! Not only did you make your subject matter interesting, but you have a wonderful sense of delivery that really gets through to your audience. We are still receiving phone calls and messages from attendees who say your program was simply the best ever!”

“…and when taxes once again became the subject of almost every newscast, you were the person we thought of immediately.”

“Comments made to us included: ‘this was worth the entire expenses of the trip’ and ‘he really knows what he’s talking about.’ ”
