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

“This program was excellent; well balanced between teaching/coaching and individual participation/study/activity. I would absolutely recommend this program. Every manager or aspiring leader should be required to attend a program like this. Laurie is a fantastic facilitator, teacher, coach—High, High recommendations!”

“The program was excellent. I especially enjoyed the module that covered IQ and emotional intelligence—very interesting.”

"Laurie's leadership development program is by far the best professional development coaching I have ever had."

“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.”

“This program was a 10!! I have much improved my skill set, leadership, and personal ways of life. Laurie is personable—top of the best!”

"As a result of the leadership program, I feel more confident and driven towards clearer objectives. I have learned to communicate better with my team and keep them engaged and accountable for their actions. I have learned to be more organized and finally delegated things that I thought only I could do. I am more organized, and I have found more time to do things for myself and for my family. I try to instill some of these habits in my children too. At work, because I have learned to delegate more, I have more time to organize and plan other projects and learn more about the operational aspects of the Credit Union which gives me a chance to grow professionally within the organization. I feel more confident when coaching my team and am trying to trust in them more in order to keep work and relationships flowing smoothly. I feel happier and less stressed out. The program was excellent. Laurie's leadership and coaching are a great example to follow."

“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.”

"I have noticed that I am more open to initiating what may seem as a difficult conversation in order to have clarity. I am also making large strides in my organization skills. I appreciated the opportunity to receive honest feedback on various daily management challenges from such a diverse group of individuals and gain new perspective on my role within my organization. The tools provided in the reading materials are great resources. Also, after getting a clearer picture of management I am now able to make an informed decision on my management goals. This program provided the knowledge, insight, and tools necessary to build a sound leader within a company/organization. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would rate the program a solid 10."

“Laurie was an excellent teacher and moderator, and my group was engaged the whole time. Empowerment is the word I keep coming back to. I have more confidence interacting with my team in a more managerial capacity. Thank you, Laurie!”
