Not throw up during your million dollar presentation

Karen has critiqued 6000+ presentations over the past 30 years. Stage fright has been The Number One issue.

An improved and more predictable way to begin and end your presentations – in a speech, at a meeting, in an interview

Pre and post follow-up discussion by phone or email and conversations throughout the process

How your personalized Speak For Yourself® (SFY) executive communication/presentation skills consulting process works:

Karen, or an SFY Associate hand selected for you, will talk to you before the consulting begins — and you can fill out the downloadable Client Coaching Questionnaire (pdf).
Together both will see if this is a good match for a collaborative effort. Once there is a mutual agreement, the process begins.
The time spent together will be separated into periodic 2-hour sessions. The number of sessions depends on the project. A typical Speak For Yourself® Project is 6 sessions over 6 months.
Consulting can be done virtually whether clients live in the Dallas metroplex or anywhere else. Our Zoom Link: zoom.us/my/meeting.with.karen.
SFY is also available to do on-site coaching and critiquing of presentations, sales pitches, job proposals, etc.
Honest insights will be given in a non-threatening trusting environment throughout.
Speak For Yourself® and client will treat all non-public written and oral information provided by the other as confidential and will not use such information unless the disclosing party receives the prior written consent of the other.
Clients will receive a signed copy of Karen’s books, The Naked Truth about Giving Great Speeches and The Naked Truth about Selling, a Speak For Yourself® Workbook (that will never end up in your favorite file cabinet that’s rectangular and resides on your office floor), and a business-sized summary card.
