Communication Skills Programs

You are an outstanding speaker! One of the very best we have ever had and this is my 25th PPAI show. The success of this year’s program would not have been possible without your willingness to share your energy and expertise.

We were extremely impressed with how you worked with us to customize the conference to the unique needs of our staff. Your insights helped us meet our goals – self realization and teambuilding in a fun and positive and fun atmosphere. I’ve already recommended you to others.

I cannot begin to tell you the difference you have made on our campus. Because of your unique ability to understand our needs and customize your content, here are some comments from some of the 500 staff members who attended your programs: “Patti puts herself at risk to make vital points.” “Your enlightening seminar helped motivate me.” “Topic was presented with zest and zeal – very refreshing.” “I left with lots of energy and new ideas!

The response to Patti the first year was so overwhelming that we brought her back the second year. She is energetic and enthusiastic. Patti is an excellent communicator who quickly develops a rapport with her audience. I recommend her highly.

Your enthusiastic, animated, and audience-involved delivery was the best we have ever had. The message was ideally suited to our large and widely varied group. The wide range in age, experience, education, and responsibility in our audience was handled with such ease.

I have had the privilege to hire you three times and as always I think you are truly “one in a million”. There is never a dull moment during your programs, nor had there ever been a negative comment in regards to your presentation. I look forward to working with you again…

You have been consistently one of our highest rated presenters for 25 years. We can always count on excellent ratings and evaluations which is why we continue to invite you back every year to speak on change, customer service, or communication skills. Thanks for being easy to work with and for consistently providing outstanding, practical content in an entertaining and interactive manner for our affiliate members.

I am most pleased to recommend your presentation to any organization that needs an enthusiastic, interesting, and meaningful speaker! You stimulated the audience, encouraged their participation, and generated much thought and discussion among members of our group.

Marvelous! Motivational! Those are just two of the M & M’s we heard about your presentation. It was a delight to meet and work with you on our conference.

You have a wonderful ability to teach with encouragement and humor and there is an impressive amount of thought-provoking material in your presentation. When I have you as a speaker, I never have to worry about the quality of your program or delivery – it is a joy to work with you.

Our employees are still talking about your program! You gave them resources to deal with the difficult task ahead. As a fellow train, it was a joy to watch you work. My son always says, “…but nothing is perfect, Daddy.” He didn’t see your presentation. I thought your pacing, you ability to speak their language, all were excellent.

Patti’s teaching skills are excellent in that she involves her audience in exercises to illustrate a point or technique. This ensures that individuals will be able to reflect back and retain the information being taught and effectively utilize it, personally or professionally.

You did an excellent job at our breakfast meeting for the Human Resources Association of Central Ohio. It was one of the best meetings this year! Your ratings were superior especially considering the fact that our members tend to be difficult to impress as they hear a lot of speakers in their line of work. On a scale of 1 to 5 (5 being “excellent”), our members gave you a 4.9 on your delivery!

Your workbook is one of the finest workbooks I have seen in 15 years of taking classes at DFAS. Super instructor! Subject matter well-covered and well delivered.
