HOW DOES JEAN JACQUES FIT IN WITH SEAN BEING AN MC?

Sean has incorporated a fictitious character, Jean Jacques the famous French fighter pilot, into his presentations. When Sean Dercksen puts on the red fighter pilot scarf / hat, (insignia) Jean Jacques comes to life, telling jokes with a French accent.

Sean Dercksen has taken his ability as a speaker, trainer & MC, emcee or Master of Ceremonies and made it extraordinary with the introduction of Jean Jacques as a unique brand.

Having said this, Jean Jacques does not have to be included as the fun character at an event, corporate function, conference or party. Sean is more than happy to participate with a more formal approach; however, a short inclusion of this French character certainly breaks the ice and leaves a lasting impression.

Jean Jacques has a big ego because of his apparent fame, resulting in him exaggerating everything into an endless adventure. He makes "public appearances" at any event Sean Dercksen is booked for and these famous adventures are posted on the Jean Jacques blog on a weekly basis. Visitors to this blog enjoy the tongue-in-cheek sense of humor Sean brings to this famous French fighter pilot’s adventures.
