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

"The Future Leaders program was excellent. I learned that coaching an employee can be fun and positive, and how to coach an employee who isn't meeting standards without being negative. I learned about what I need to work on to be a successful leader, as well as in my personal life. I really like the fact that Laurie included herself in a lot of the topics and shared examples of her experiences as a leader.”

“This program was incredible-a 10. Laurie is priceless.”

“I would rate a perfect 10 for the leadership program. Not only were our course materials well organized, but our instructor did an impeccable job teaching and explaining the course materials for all to understand. I have definitely benefited from this program. I have more self-awareness of my leadership abilities and have learned how to refine them so I can become one of the great leaders.”

“This program is a definite 10! The instructions along with the personal guidance and suggestions are excellent. You really learn a lot about yourself.”

It was a great and informative workshop. It was a good way to understand myself better. Yes, because it gives you a different perspective of the mind. I am so fascinated with my mind and unlocking my brain to be better. Learning the root cause of my emotions is key to understanding.

“I would rate this program a 10; full of useful and practical information. I have a higher level of confidence when handling difficult situations and I found the group exercises to be very beneficial. I absolutely recommend this program because it allows managers to have al the information and tips to help best guide them through being a leader.”

"This program was exactly what I needed with just getting into a management role. I wish I could take this every year to always keep the valuable information top of mind. Where do I begin to describe the best part of the program??? I feel I have become a confident manager who is pushing my employees to take more responsibility and also opening up the lines of communication with them to be the best leader I can to them. I only hope one day when they are asked which manager inspired them most...they think of me. Crucial Conversations was by far my weak area. I learned valuable skills that I hope make these difficult situations easier. I plan to keep the book that had to do with that session handy at all times. I completely recommend this program to anyone. Not only does this help you in your career but also in your personal life. Overall an amazing program. Thank you, Laurie, for such an excellent program."

"This program was amazing! I am managing my time equally among employees. The virtual program was fun. I’ve never delegated so much in my life without being afraid to. I’ve been able to manage time in my day better with prioritizing specific tasks. I believe all leaders should participate. Regardless of what level of leadership you are in, the tools learned will last a lifetime."

"This program was excellent. I feel that I have become a better listener and am more thoughtful in how I handle conversations and especially conflict. I have learned how better to handle important conversations with tact and remove as much "emotion" as possible. Additionally, I have learned how important it is for employees to hear feedback on a regular basis and have made more attempts to provide without being asked. I have also been more consistent with holding myself accountable and doing what I say I am going to do. The interaction and open conversations about various scenarios and challenges was the best part of the program. Using techniques in real situations rather than following along in a textbook. It's a practical program that is easy to follow and apply to real-world situations."
