“Today, after two months of coaching with Spoken with Authority, I had a meeting where I ended up doing about 85 percent of the talking. It just hit me (almost an hour later) that I wasn’t even a little nervous! I went through the entire agenda and gave updates, explained how I thought things should flow—I even made a joke! I utilized the techniques that we have worked on without even realizing it because it felt so natural.”

“Working with Lynne was amazing from start to finish. During our sessions, Lynne would catch little things that I didn't even realize I was doing, like using filler words. With my technical background, I would sometimes share too much analysis, and she helped me hone in on my message. The Sandwich Structure helped me organize my thoughts and stay focused on my message, and present myself in a more confident way. I used to read off a script, but now I only refer to my talking points in the Sandwich Structure, then speak from my knowledge as the subject matter expert. Thanks to Lynne's coaching, I'm now more confident and comfortable when presenting.”

“Working with Lisa Richard was a true pleasure. She provided me with invaluable techniques and tools that have greatly enhanced my communication skills. Lisa taught me the importance of preparation by structuring my thoughts and anticipating questions for both internal team meetings and external client meetings. Her tips on vocal variety and effective intonation have allowed me to explain complex topics in a more conversational manner. I feel confident that I now have the necessary tools to continue improving my communication skills, thanks to Lisa's expertise.”
