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

“Laurie is a fantastic coach and mentor! The program was excellent. I have been more aware and purposeful in my approach to managing. I feel so much more confident and capable as a manager. The mix of real, relevant topics from time management to engaging and coaching employees, effective delegation, and navigating difficult conversations are so helpful to new managers and a great reminder and practice for seasoned managers.”

"Envision Excellence has been an eye-opening experience for both me and my company. Laurie Maddalena has tailored her training to the specific needs of my department and management style, and has made me a more motivated and most importantly, confident manager. I, along with several other managers from my company, have trained with Laurie and adopted her strategies and techniques. I have seen this filter throughout the entire company as there is now a shared vision and education driving the company as a whole. I would be remiss if I did not mention the manner in which Laurie conducts her business. She has an equally professional and personal approach to her training and counseling that makes her extremely effective and the material more pertinent. I would suggest that this has been my best experience to date with a training program, and l would think that any organization could benefit from Laurie's unique curriculum."

"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 wonderful, and I enjoyed every minute of it. I would absolutely recommend this program. Laurie did such an amazing job of leading and coaching us while also holding us accountable before every session to actually put something in motion. It’s clear that Laurie does not want the participants to just check the box but to leave with skills that are practical and feasible to implement.”

"This program was excellent. I gained a lot of knowledge to use in my leadership role. I learned ways to implement being a leader and making my staff accountable. I would definitely recommend the program. The instructor was able to "teach" and "explain" the aspects of the program. Thanks, Laurie!"

"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 was an amazing program; great content and good camaraderie among the class. It was a very thorough program and a great experience.”

"This program was outstanding. I am more focused on prioritizing tasks and planning my day rather than multi-tasking and being into so many different things at a time. I can actually block off a portion of my day and "eat the frog". I fully believe that attending his program will help me tremendously as I take over as President/CEO of Allegany County Teachers FCU. The program was a realistic insight into what "Leadership" is today and how important it is to lead by example and be more focused on the success of your team member because their success is success for the credit union. Laurie is phenomenal. She is exceptionally knowledgeable in this area and offers a different perspective....one that I have always believed in."
