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

"Laurie always presents her topic in an understandable, informative and applicable way. Keep her coming back!"

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

"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."

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

“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!”

“I would rate this program a 10+; very informative and eye opening. Laurie is fantastic and does a great job initiating group engagement. I’m definitely more aware of my role as a leader in general and have adjusted how I approach certain situation to be a better leader from the start. Thank you for your leadership and insight. I found this training to be very beneficial and am certain that I will become a better leader as a result.”

"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 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 has helped me become an overall better leader. I have grown over the course of this program as a person and a manager.”
