WHAT CLIENTS SAY ABOUT IMPROV-ABLE RESULTS®! Seminars, Workshops, Presentations:  “In her workshops, Sandy cuts through a lot of clutter and gets you right to presenting your business in an efficient and conversational way. She helps you to use your own words in just the right way. I have come to understand that Sandy has taught me is a process, not sold me a product. My 60 second elevator speech will likely never be perfect, but I have a much better understanding of how to continue to improve it, in content, style and delivery.” ~Marshall Parker, Marshall Media Consulting "In '30 Seconds to Impact,' Sandy offers the audience a piece of her elevator pitch boot camp training. She's a fantastic actor demonstrating how not to present yourself --and a targeted, yet lighthearted instructor who guides you to show your best self." ~ Diane Haugen, Exec. Dir., Lake City Chamber of Commerce “Sandy's business networking trade fairs are a must-attend! The networking opportunities are truly amazing, and the relationships we create really allow us to grow our businesses. I highly recommend anyone who is looking to associate with the right people to come to these fairs and take advantage of the opportunity. You won't regret it!" ~John Trivedi, World Travelers United “I attended Sandy’s Bucket Club meeting and what a powerful experience that was! In 2 hours I received more incentive and feedback on my next steps moving forward than I have after days of mulling it over in my brain.”  ~Rose Pinciotto, MetLife, Relationship Manager  “We so very much enjoyed your presentation. Your sincerity, wit and humor touched us deeply. The way you shared your marvelous insights in public speaking allowed us to reach into our own possibilities. I loved your wondrous stories and how you overcame your fears which transformed into so much joy! Thank you, Sandy, for giving so much of yourself. You stay in our hearts and in our minds!” ~ Eva-Maria Taylor, Woman's Federation for World Peace "I want to let you know how much my team appreciated your two training sessions. The first helped us to better understand the key elements of Choice Theory and how it could benefit us in the business environment. The second allowed us to cement what we had learned by applying our knowledge to real-life situations. The practical application was invaluable in helping us refine our skills in questioning, listening and self-evaluation necessary to make this process a success. Through implementing the questioning techniques from Choice Theory, we are encouraging employees to evaluate their own performance and identify what areas they want to improve upon. In addition, encouraging employees to solve their own problems through critical thinking is vital to our business success and viability. Finding out what employees want and helping them determine how to get it is truly the most effective way to create lasting and sustained change. Your training has helped us to implement processes that truly drive employee accountability and responsibility." ~ Eugenie Johnson, Team Leader, Credit Management Center "I thoroughly enjoyed your session on the Inner Salesperson. Your energy and vitality and materials were top notch." ~ Michael Buschmohle, Speaker, Trainer "I have been impressed with Sandy's ability to run groups. Twice I have seen her conduct Creative Problem Solving Groups with great charm, clarity and effectiveness. She has the ability to appear before an audience with great poise." ~ Ellen H. Dohner, Minister "Your workshop really helped me solidify the vision for my business. You are a gentle, wise guide and bring out the best in people. I felt myself going through a transformation of sorts while listening to you coach others. The light bulb finally went off! I thought I was going there to pick up a few more speaking tips but I came away with so much more. I want people to know how vital your work is." ~ Jenny Martin, Core Transformation Practitioner "I learned a lot today. The interaction was helpful. Everything we did makes me think about what I am doing. I expected to get a formula for success in this area (male thinking). Instead, the principles were intertwined through-out." ~ Otto Haugland, Author "Thank you so much for speaking today. I don't know when I've seen the group so energized. You paced the presentation perfectly, building from one-to-one sessions to the dramatic transformation of the member who volunteered to give a brief presention up front. She came a long way in such a short time!" ~ Lynda McDaniel, Member of Program Committee for Women Business Owners "Sandy is an excellent speaker! Her seminar shows you how to improvise more effectively in professional communications and relations. A fabulous time and great information." ~ Kris Conway, Health Insurance Agent "I just thought you'd like to know that your improv is a class act. Your information and the spark with which you present is unique, refreshing and encouraging. I really appreciate you." ~ Jean Tracy, MSS, Speaker, Author "Thank you! for the well-crafted and interactive seminar "Improve with Improv."  I greatly enjoyed the experience.  I definitely got out of my comfort zone and into the creative moment. Thank you once again for giving such an engaging seminar!!" ~ Lucille Chang, Learning Materials Designer "You were awesome!" ~ Bill Gregory, Education Chair, Toastmasters District Conference Individual Coaching: “I saw Tammy's new video after she took your boot camp.  I'm next!  You really transformed her presentation.  With some coaching, I hope to improve that much, too.” ~Diane Haugen, Exec. Dir., Lake City Chamber of Commerce “Sandy’s coaching sessions really helped me to understand my unique strengths as a facilitator. She was able to help me recognize the best ways for me to connect with my audience. Because of my sessions with her, I not only enjoy my facilitation work more, because I’m more comfortable, but my evaluation scores are excellent too! I would highly recommend Sandy for anyone who is looking to improve their presentation/facilitation skills”  ~ Deanna Carlisle, Consultant for Training at Microsoft "What was most valuable to me: your ability to let me wander around among a bunch of ideas without (you) losing sight of the need for a useful action or decision to emerge as a result. You asked good, focused questions. You probed my ideas by asking if that was what I really wanted to do and what next action I would take. That was very helpful in bringing me back to earth and keeping some focus to my thinking." ~ Suzanne Webster, Small-Business Consultant "My goal was to decide whether or not to accept a new job with the company. Using values-clarifying questions, Sandy was able to help me understand the aspects of my job I enjoyed or wanted to avoid. It became easier to measure the new job against my interests and needs. From this I was able to make a decision I was happy with." ~ Brian Alan, Credit Consultant "Sandy asks powerful questions, keeps her agenda out of the way, is a very good listener, and spontaneously awakens her clients to their own clarity of mind and powers of choice. She is a rare gem." ~ Jill Shelby, Instructor, Counselor "You are a great teacher and a very supportive coach!" ~ Donna Canterna, Property Manager "You gave much good feedback about what worked well, for example: the personal stories, eye contact, voice projection, and body language.  I appreciated the careful listening, thought, and level of detail you put into this. Your feedback regarding what was less effective was also well done and detailed, for example: eliminating filler words, being more interactive with the audience, and using more vocal variety. These and much more were helpful things to point out. You are a very good evaluator. I hope there will be an opportunity for you to come evaluate another one of these presentations (when I get to use the PowerPoint program) and compare the two." ~ Marta Boyle, Orientation Presenter for Hospital Volunteers
