It's going to be a lot of fun, very interactive, and very informative.

I’d like to take the opportunity to let you know that the training at Red Arrow was really inspiring. I’ve done several of these training-sessions during my career and this is the first one that actually really makes sense. Not only on the content side, but also (or maybe even more) on the way it was set up.

- Business Development Manager, Red Arrow
You [Speechworks] were instrumental in our team’s ability to be our best selves. Based on conversations with John, Chris, Steve, and Tom, it went VERY well.

- Marketing Manger, Large Construction Firm

(Commenting on our client’s winning presentation to design
upgrades for the school’s stadium and athletic facilities.)
They presented in a manner that really got the attention of the committee. Their sincerity and eagerness for the job really stuck out.

- Head College Football Coach

(Commenting on our client’s winning presentation to design
upgrades for the school’s stadium and athletic facilities.)
We were selected for the project! Your training and guidance were a huge part of the success!

- President, General Contractor
We won the contract! My hat is off to you for showing us a better way!

- Sr. Vice President, Mid-Size Engineering Firm
I asked the client if anything stood out. They mentioned our “energy, hunger, and sincere enthusiasm.” How often do you get to hear that in a debrief!?

- Business Development Manager, Mid-Size Engineering Firm
At Speechworks, I was challenged to step beyond my boundaries. Major improvement!

- Architect, Gresham, Smith & Partners
The workshop was great, I learned a lot and felt that I improved in the short time we had. Most important, it was fun!

- Sales Manager, The Home Depot
Speaking in front of others is a fear of mine, but after attending the workshop, I felt more confident and comfortable.

– Analyst, Federal Reserve Bank
The training was presented in such a way that I saw immediate improvement in my presentation skills.

– Analyst, Southeastern Data Cooperative
I prepared a presentation for our Board of Directors… In 10 slides I was able to present my case and obtain the necessary funding for the project.

- Executive, Fiserv
Great experience! I learned a lot in a very short amount of time.

– Manager, Energy Systems Group
The class was excellent! Can be used in meetings and speeches.

– Manager, LexisNexis
Very helpful. Brought me out of my shell. Will really help me progress in my career.

– Manager, Georgia-Pacific
Great class! Very useful advice for consultants who present to executives.

– Consultant, Kurt Salmon
Seeing myself on video was powerful.

– Manager, Cardlytics
I was so nervous, but the workshop was so relaxed and fun. It was great!

- Account Manager, Century Fire
Taking this class was the best thing I have ever done!

– Customer Service, Pulse Centers
