TESTIMONIALS

“Dear Elaine, I wanted to thank you personally. Apart from breathing/relaxing/delivery exercises that we did, I realised that we need authenticity in the delivery. I found having to speak something I had written very challenging and I was most grateful for the feedback from the group. I delivered my “presentation” today. The Magistrate commented on the detail in the delivery and concluded that he was satisfied that what I had said did occur (authenticity). Thank you again.”

Bernadette, Women Barristers Forum, NSW BAR

"The trainers were welcoming, personable and encouraging and broke through out “lawyerly exteriors quickly. I will be raving about the workshop to my colleagues and encouraging them to attend in the future.”

NSW CROWN Solicitor July 2009

“The practical, hands-on style of the workshop was challenging at times but well worth the risk. I was able to put the skills learned into practice the next day dealing with a difficult situation in a whole new way.”

Susan Hill, Susan Hill & Associates Lawyers, Legalwise 2008

"I already feel more capable of presenting while utilizing these new techniques to my benefit."

"After participating in the Talking Brief workshop, the difference in the quality of the communication was extraordinary when the speaker made the effort to create an impression on the listener, compared to merely conveying information."
