“…One of the top 3 speakers I’ve heard in 15 years…”

“Laurie is a fantastic coach and mentor! The program was excellent. I have been more aware and purposeful in my approach to managing. I feel so much more confident and capable as a manager. The mix of real, relevant topics from time management to engaging and coaching employees, effective delegation, and navigating difficult conversations are so helpful to new managers and a great reminder and practice for seasoned managers.”

"The overall program was excellent. Sharing everyone's real life experiences and how they implemented some of the techniques and information was very helpful. The reading assignments were excellent. I feel more confident in my leadership abilities and feel equipped to be able to deal with whatever new leadership related challenges that may come my way. What I liked best about the program were the interaction and group discussions, and sharing of real-life experiences. The program has made me more aware of my time and how to better prepare and organize my daily activities. I've had many 'aha' moments on when and where I could apply some of the principles learned in the classroom. Yes, I would recommend this program. The class and the material (books and hand outs) are very useful and are things that you could review and fall back on frequently. Excellent resources. Great Class, Great Instructor."

"This was an excellent program! Out of all the training programs I have taken throughout the years I found this one to be the most useful. The skills taught in this program were practical, easy to understand and easy to implement if you try. Yes, I found this course to provide many new ideas and skills that I have not seen taught in other programs. I feel what I learned will help me throughout both my professional career and my personal life. This was a wonderful and very engaging program."

"I would rate this program a 10 out of 10. I am significantly more aware of the words/actions I use (or don't use) which directly affect my day-to-day relationships in life and my progress at work. Laurie has a fantastic approach to this type of training. This type of class is make or break depending on the tone set by the instructor. I have better sense of what leadership truly is. This allows me to identify an effective leader and also notice things that person does that makes them an effective leader."

“I would rate this program a 10. If all leaders would work this way, the workplace would be so much better. Laurie is an amazing instructor and made the class fun. She kept everyone involved.”

"This program was excellent. Crucial conversations aren't intimidating anymore, I am more detailed in my emails to others and my time management skills are much better. The program has helped me to look at situations differently. I have learned to be a productive worker and not a busy worker. My time management skills have allowed me to get more work accomplished during the day. I would recommend the program to anyone who is a leader. This program gives a positive view on how to see things/situation and shows you how to manage it properly."

"I always learn something that I can take back to the office and use immediately. Laurie is an excellent presenter!"

“This program was wonderful, and I enjoyed every minute of it. I would absolutely recommend this program. Laurie did such an amazing job of leading and coaching us while also holding us accountable before every session to actually put something in motion. It’s clear that Laurie does not want the participants to just check the box but to leave with skills that are practical and feasible to implement.”
