Client Testimonials

"It was such a pleasure meeting you at our Convention. Thank you - you have inspired others with your talk – not only with what you said, but also because of how you said it. You have such a confident, clear manner of speaking which ensures that your message is heard and taken seriously. You are indeed dynamite! (In South Africa that is a huge compliment, meaning that you are dynamic, strong and pro-active)."
Annie Greeff, Co-Founder and 2007-2008 President, National Speakers Association of Southern Africa

"Sincere thanks from me personally on your session with the team last week. The pitch and fit for our business could not have been better timed and delivered. We will work hard over the remainder of 2006 to ensure that Walking TALL is part of our day every day! I have recommended you to my colleagues across the Barclays group and hope they will pick up with you direct in the near future."
Mark Collings, Director - International Trade, Barclays Business Banking

"A big thank you for the presentation you gave at our recent Sales Conference, at Wembley Stadium. We have received positive feedback from the 230 attendees, who used words like 'refreshing,' 'eye opening,' 'it makes you think about the impact your appearance has on people' and 'I will be using some of the advice & techniques....from today.'
We are reviewing the way that we represent BT with our customers to ensure we maximise impact in the ways you suggested."
David Marsh, Head of Strategy and Communications, BT Business

Most of the feedback from our event gave Lesley a 10 out of 10. We will certainly be looking to book her again for future events."

"Feedback from the Walking TALL course has been very positive indeed, and I have noted a number of new wardrobes and admissions that these have been inspired by your course. Many thanks for making a difference."
Russ Fitzgerald, Head of IT Relationships & Project Office, RBS Insurance

"Working as a Director within a communications agency I spend a great deal of time working with board level executives on their messaging, in particular their vision and values - the written word on brochures, websites and what they say to the media. The Walking TALL course is a superb way to highlight the impact the individual can make using some simple tools which every manager or executive should have in his arsenal."
Rachel Bachmann, Director, Bite Communications

"Many thanks for your excellent presentation at Successful Selling. The feedback has been brilliant and I would say the best ever for a female speaker. As you know we are extremely careful with choosing our speakers for this important event and appreciate it takes a special kind of presenter to inspire 1500 people in an audience, many of whom come every year and are used to seeing great speakers. You already had a superb reputation, but you clearly surpassed our high expectations."
Jennie Harnaman, Events Manager, Institute of Sales & Marketing Management

"Thank you so much for your inspiring presentation at our Sales Conference. You really engaged with the audience and provided an impactful close to the day. The Walking TALL principles are clearly vital to us when communicating with clients, and we look forward to working with you to keep the Personal Branding momentum rolling. Thank you once again."
Adrian Young, UK Country Manager, Integralis
