"Top-notch, skilled coach. Insightful, direct, constructive feedback. Encourages and recognizes improvements/successes, as well. Relaxed, but very constructive coaching. Takes what can be an uncomfrotable experience (recording yourself on video) and makes it a constructive tool." P.K., Merrill Lynch "My presentations went very, very well. I was told by several people that they did not know that I am 'a professional presenter.' I was able to apply all the techniques and I have already received four requests for follow ups. In the end, the techniques that helped me the most were how to handle questions and answers, of which I had many. Thanks again for a great job, your coaching was incredibly helpful." S.L., Citigroup Private Bank "I have compiled the feedback from the latest round of Presentation Skills you did for the Private Bank. It was excellent as usual...Your ability to do a quick study of the business and talk the language quickly, as well as build real and usable skills, is why I like working with you...you always make my decisions look good!" Vice President, Private Banking, Chase Manhattan Bank "I have heard many positive comments from the participants and I am glad the Train-the-Trainer course was such a success. Your ability to inspire an audience and communicate what is expected of a trainer was a large part of this success...." President and CEO, Helena Chemical Company "You're a true expert in the field of presentation skills. On each sales call I have made since the training in May, I have used your skills set. The result is exactly what I was looking for. We are having more effective sales calls and are gaining more support from both our new and existing account base. I would like to have you come back on an annual basis and run a refresher course for the group." Regional Sales Manager, Boise Cascade "Your eight week program did more than show me the fundamentals of a successful speaker, it helped to build my confidence. Needless to say, the speech was a tremendous success. It actually was voted as the best presentation for the weekend session." Vice President, General Manager, Resolution Graphics, Division of Grey Direct "I found the Present with Power program content extremely relevant and useful, especially the piece on persuading your audience. I used your techniques the following day to persuade our senior staff group to approve an employee recognition committee proposal.... and it worked! I now keep your outline at my fingertips." Director, HIP Health Plan of New Jersey "The Train-the-Trainer program that you developed for MEDCO has been an unqualified success for us. The feedback from the line managers we have sent to this program has consistently been excellent. Perhaps the most significant point that can be said is that theis program is clearly contributing to improved efficiency and productivity." Director of Training and Organizational Development, Medco Containment Services "Great communication skills. Diane has a fun, energetic way of teaching. Anyone would benefit from the tips and techniques." Marketing Manager, NBA "Your presentation skills program has made such a difference over the past three years since you began working with us. The participants rave about your program. The high quality of your training is evident and the participants appreciate your high energy and positive approach. As you know, you have a sterling reputation with our people which is why you have been called upon to do media training for our players, Bob Lanier, Rolando Blackman, and Ruthie Bolton-Holyfield...." Director of Human Resources, NBA "Diane's presentation, Selling with Style, kept our attention with her interactive approach and keen sense of humor. Her high level of energy and her enthusiasm riveted the audience from the start. The presentation was clear, concise, informative and very animated; she really captivated the group. Diane is a first rate presenter and the content was thought provoking and easily applied to real life situations." Director of Education & Training, Bermuda Insurance Institute "Thank you for the marvelous presentation, Dealing with Difficult Audiences. To be candid, we've come to expect good presentations. So we're pretty stingy with standing ovations; they are truly rare indeed. Well, you certainly earned your standing O! Great information, well-presented with a masterful use of audience involvement. You made the information come alive with relevance, personal examples, and memorable strategies. Based on what I learned at your session, I am almost looking forward to my next hostile audience!" Don Blohowiak, Vice President, Liberty Bell Speakers Association
