“I have attended Gilda’s presentations for the past three years at the annual Southern New England Chapter of the Project Management Institute’s conference. She is a polished speaker who always has an upbeat professional message to deliver. This year’s presentation, “Presenting with Power and Passion,” was of particular importance and timing for me. We are currently training our newer Project Managers and technical staff to prepare and deliver presentations to Senior Management. I picked up some new tips from her presentation and also confirmed some of the things that I had been doing correctly. I was so impressed by her presentation that we invited her to speak at our company’s next Project Manager’s Forum. I highly recommend Gilda’s presentations.”

"As a result of working with Gilda, I feel better equipped to handle public speaking situations. Gilda was easy to talk to. I felt like it was an open environment where I was willing to make mistakes. I did not feel awkward or shy at all when practicing because of the environment and engagement she had with me immediately. Thank you so much for all your great prep work and help throughout the process!""

"I wanted to take a moment to extend our sincere gratitude to you for dedicating your time yesterday for the debate preparation in support of our campaign. The experience was nothing short of enlightening. Your dynamic energy and articulate way with words brought a new vigor to our preparations. It's remarkable how empowering it felt to have you by our side, especially as we inch closer to the debates. Your guidance and insights not only honed our strategies but also tremendously boosted our confidence. Once again, thank you for your unwavering professional assistance with this. Your impact is recognized and deeply appreciated."

"Gilda was knowledgeable & interactive, she was energetic and had such a great personality, she should definitely come back next year!"

"My sessions went extremely well. Your coaching improved my presentation at least 100%. There are many things that made a big difference. Here are the top ones: 1) Strong opening. Stand still, wait for the room to settle down, pause, then start when I am ready. 2) Have a definitive and declarative closing. This was much better than my weak closing I had before."

“We invited Gilda to present “Bold Presentation Skills for Women in Business” for our Women’s Leadership Council event. She did a fantastic job! Her energy, enthusiasm and humor engaged the audience and she provided coaching tips that are easy to incorporate into our presentations. The feedback from the attendees was very positive — each woman walked away with specific ideas to make her presentations more confident, memorable and powerful. We look forward to inviting Gilda back to speak to us again."

"As a result of working with Gilda, I felt good about the material I was sharing in my responses in the panel discussion. What I liked about working with Gilda is that she got excited about the content of my work, even though it's not her field."

"A very engaging workshop – I loved the discussion, the delivery of the presentation and the enthusiasm of the facilitator and group, good presentation engaged audience, many good tips, would recommend to others."

“It was a pleasure to meet and hear you speak about schmoozing skills. I consider myself a pretty outgoing person that usually doesn’t have trouble talking to strangers. However, your pointers still helped a lot, especially when I am in situations where I might feel that I have nothing in common with anyone in the room. I learned about how to gracefully break into a conversation and how to exit one.”
