“AT&T contracted with Lauren to provide speech coaching workshops to about 50 advanced solutions consultants. The feedback from the team was excellent in that Lauren and the workshops did a great job identifying areas of improvement in public speaking skills and brought to the participants attention functional components of speaking that are frequently overlooked or taken for granted. Due to the results of the workshops, and the confidence and improved speaking skills, the team saw a 10%-15% lift in closed business. Well worth the investment.”
"Lauren has been my professional speech coach for many years and her ability to evaluate areas for improvement and develop a custom program have taken my public speaking skills to new heights. In addition to improving my speech and public speaking, she has also helped with stage presence and delivery. Public speaking is vital to our success in business and in life and if you're looking to take your skills to the next level, I highly Lauren and Corporate Speech Coaching."
"I was unsure at first how I would improve my speaking using Lauren's speech coaching services. At first I thought speaking more clearly, and to have my message more well received was my goal.
After a two hour session with her I can wholly recommend Lauren for a few reasons.
First, her process is well thought out and raises questions I would have never thought of. This is key because I discovered more about why I speak the way I do, and gave me a better understanding of various things I needed to change.
Second, Lauren made the process super comfortable and fun. At no point did I feel on the spot or nervous as I went through exercises and coaching discussion.
Finally, at the end of the session I felt I was given more than enough time to fully grasp what we were going over, and I had full knowledge about where I was and where I want to be in my speaking. I had new confidence in my approach, and felt that the skills I learned gave me enough to improve right away.
I would highly recommend Lauren for anyone seeking to improve on their speaking skills, whether it be for personal or professional reasons."
"Lauren brings a unique approach to speech training which enables each participant to improve and excel in the areas which are critical to their needs. It is based on her experience in the performing arts, which has many similarities to the professional work environment. As a manager of sales professionals, our team realized immediate benefits to the time spent under her guidance where we gained confidence in communicating with our clients and how to clearly deliver our message. Lauren’s training is critical to anyone required to be in front of small, medium or large groups."
"I expected that the experience would be a seminar based lesson not an engaging life lesson. most presenters are stereotyped as boring. this class was very engaging and entertaining where everyone felt relaxed and involved. it was more of a personal and informal class versus the business setting that was expected. Lauren did an excellent job and i would recommend her and her dynamic techniques to more companies everywhere."
"Excellent coach and very personable. In a short time, she was able to improve my speech delivery and enhance the presentation skills."
"Lauren is a phenomenal speech coach. She not only has the technical expertise but she also understands the importance getting to know each of her clients and working to truly understand their needs. She is excellent at personalizing her approach and creating customized coaching plans that target the areas that you as an individual want to improve. I would definitely recommend Lauren to anyone looking to improve their public speaking skills."
"I signed up for lessons because in my position I constantly deliver presentations and communicate with many people, from factory floor employees to directors and vice-presidents, but my speech was always breathy, lacking confidence, filled with fear and anxiety, and my voice did not project well. I have had a few speaking and communication courses before, but group classes didn’t help much. Lauren has taught me how to breathe, to project my voice properly, overcome anxiety and deliver with confidence. I doubted someone could change me from a boring speaker into someone interesting to hear, but it had been only my third lesson when I started to receive compliments from my peers and managers on how my speech has improved, and how they enjoyed my presentations. From there on, it is only getting better. The investment I have made in these lessons is well worth; it has been opening many doors for me at work and in my personal life. Lauren has done an amazing job with me, and I highly recommend her services."
"The coaching session was excellent! Very informative and fun. The exercises and tips were extremely beneficial, and I learned several things I will be able to apply to future presentations. Thank you!"
“Get past the embarrassing sounds and unusual faces and you will move quickly upwards to success and a more enhanced speech.”
“This program was fantastic. It was tailored to me specifically after the first 15 minutes.”
“My confidence has increased 100% (But it would help to have more sessions), hard to calculate more sales (but I would say 2-3 a yr), my sales contract values have increased over 50% since I started taking the presentation lessons.”
"Absolutely fascinating exercise!!! This gal is entertaining, well informed and excellent at teaching people how to speak and present.I walked away learning new things...I truly am better at public speaking after just one class. Fantastic!!!"
