Karen Speaks

I wanted to let you know that you received RAVE reviews in our evaluations! Which says a lot as we only did general conference overview vs. a workshop by workshop one, so people had to go out of the way to comment on individual speakers. I was also stopped that day by several people commenting on the conference & your name was mentioned to me more than once!

I was so impressed with Karen’s presentation that I had one of our writers interview her about executive coaching for our publication Best Practices in Human Resources. The first interview was so successful that the writer interviewed her again, this time about mid-life coaching. Her enthusiasm for these subjects was contagious!

I was delighted to introduce you last Saturday at the SWIB Conference, and even more delighted as I listened to your oh-too-short presentation.

I recently attended a professional development seminar presented by Karen Sands. Ms. Sands’ thoughtful preparation allowed her to immediately connect with her audience. Her exercises and role-plays identified areas for improvement. Ms. Sands’ program was relevant, engaging, and worth its weight in gold. In short, I was inspired by this session, which ended all too quickly.
