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

"I WOULD GIVE THIS PROGRAM AN A +++. Laurie was a patient, knowledgeable and easy-going instructor. I am eager to handle more difficult situations with confidence. Delegation! Delegation!..Delegation! :-) The best part of the program was open and honest feedback and group participation. The instructor Laurie gives real life experiences and helps you relate to a lot of problem areas that need to be addressed and how to go about it productively, professionally and confidently. I am able to continue to strengthen my coaching and mentoring skills and hold others accountable. Yes, I would recommend this program. It can be used as a foundation for those looking to transition into leadership positions and assist with current managers and leaders on how to deal with situations."

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

"Excellent program! I have improved my confidence, planning, and relationships with employees. I plan my time more efficiently. Communicate better with everyone. The program was organized and well thought out. I would recommend the program because it’s easy to follow along and learn a multitude of skills to make you better at being a leader. Laurie is an exceptional leader!"

"I always learn something that I can take back to the office and use immediately. Laurie is an excellent presenter!"

"I learned different positive approaches to mentor/coach the team and bring out the best in each and every one of the team members. The leadership program gave me a new perspective/totally different view about reprimanding a staff/team member. A leader's job is to make the employees successful and bring out the best in them. I would definitely recommend the program; it was excellent. Laurie is great trainer, and I had a lot to learn. The books were all great and the resources were excellent."

I thought I knew all the tricks when it comes to time management and setting up productive meetings after nearly 40 years at PRS. Laurie proved me wrong! My assistant Linsay and I have implemented several of her suggestions and they have made a noticeable improvement in our day! I highly recommend Laurie for her intelligent, practical and engaging training sessions.

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.

"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."

"This program was excellent. I am increasing my understanding of what it means to be a good leader. I recommend this course—it helped me to fine tune my leadership skills. I now provide a day and time to every task that I assign to someone to get better results."
