“Don’t even think twice about hiring Gigi to help you become a stronger public speaker! Gigi coached me through my first large-scale presentation and was truly a safe pair of eyes to test some of my content, ideas, and messages to be sure they would land, and land in as impactful a way as possible. She was invaluable helping me develop the right structure, including tips on a powerful opening. She helped me sharpen my stories - teaching me about a “story bank” - and gave me so many tools I will use for years to come and be able to build on. She’s patient and encouraging, I felt like I had her in my corner all the time, even on stage!”

“I’ve learned more about public speaking working with Gigi for 5 hours than I had in the previous 20 years of my higher education and career!”

“I wanted to thank you again so much for taking the time to put this Cheat Sheet and Video together for me. I will always have access to my coach, I love it! I wanted to share that I had three big presentations two weeks ago and all went off GREAT. I am feeling much more at ease and confident as a result of our work together.”

“My presentation went really well. I didn’t let the pressure get to me. The most helpful part was rehearsing my opening story and getting your feedback—nerve wracking but you don’t get better unless you practice. The time spent with you was invaluable. It was phenomenal. The only thing that could have made it better was more sessions. ”

“I ended up delivering the “red thread” presentation at my company a few weeks ago and it was a HUGE success. I know the time we spent improving it during your workshop is what helped take it to the next level. THANK YOU very much for all your help!”

“It was a pleasure working with you to prep my “grand rounds” presentation this year! You gave me the guidance to enable me to bring energy and urgency to the subject matter. I’ll still be working on my ‘Diva’ presence and hope to connect with you again in the future! ”

“My presentation went freaking awesome. I can’t wait to tell you all about it. I got asked to speak in a couple more things as a result. I can’t thank you enough for preparing me as well as you did. I’m so grateful for you.”

“My speaking gig was actually fun and I was able to enjoy myself. There’s no way I would have been this comfortable without Gigi’s help. ”

“I have another talk to give today (and then I’m going “on tour” with our CEO on a few more talks this year!). I just listened to the “Prep + Pep Talk” video Gigi created for me and it was so helpful. I’ll probably use it for years to come! THANK YOU! ”

“Thank you so much for your time, energy, and expertise! The attendees loved your pragmatic and helpful advice. And I love your “GIGI cards”! Great add!
”

“The reason I return to Gigi again and again is Trust. I trust her to help my presentations be better - and every time I’ve worked with her, this has been true.

Gigi’s years of experience show with the incisive way she draws ideas out of me, the creativity she generously shares and her ability to give feedback in a way that makes me and my presentation shine.

She also brings a ton of natural warmth and humor to her process that turns what can be a nerve-wracking experience (public speaking prep? yikes!) into one that is collaborative and full of laughter. I leave with more confidence, and I ENJOY delivery so much more. Thank you for your expertise, Gigi.”

“It was great to meet you and work with you. Your coaching and tips were invaluable to distill the essential information down for an engaging 8-minute presentation (first time for me!).”

“I am grateful for Gigi’s expertise and for helping me secure a new role recently. The skills she helped me perfect from her trainings ensured that my presentations during the interview process impressed the selection committee enough that they hired me!

”

“Gigi brought insight and knowledge to my staff at MSN that dramatically enhanced their communication skills. She listened, observed, coached individuals to understand unique skills suited to their specific needs. She has an instructional mastery that I have rarely seen.”

“Gigi’s warmth and humor keeps her audience engaged and her amazing insights and advice help everyone who works with her take their public speaking to the next level.”

“Gigi helped me sharpen my stories and prepare to present back in-person, on a huge stage, in front of 1000 people in Paris. I was able to not only connect with my audience but hold my own in front of those gigantic graphics.”

“Gigi helped me organize my thoughts and say more with less words. Her coaching has helped me grow into my new leadership role and is sure to have a ripple effect in my career.”

“What a pleasure it was to work with Gigi. I was able to deliver a really solid presentation. I was grounded the whole time and was able to enjoy the moment like never before. She didn’t apply a pre-set template technique but rather met me where I was and worked with my strengths and weaknesses in a tailored fashion. Thank you so much Gigi! I can’t wait to continue to work with you.”

“We engaged Gigi to do online-presentation trainings to several groups of 50 lawyers. Gigi did a fantastic job packing lots of information into a fascinating 60 minutes that was interesting, fun and full of important take-always. She kept all of her audience focused for the entire 60 minutes, which in itself is an achievement. I can only highly recommend her.”

“Gigi was absolutely lovely to work with. We are rather large and complex department within a large medical center. Gigi swooped in, quickly understood our needs, and worked with us via a series of engagements.

She is obviously an expert, very approachable, made everyone feel comfortable, and made the trainings actually fun!”

“Gigi was instrumental in helping me with my story and framework, but it was her focus on my confidence, blocking and eye contact with the audience that truly added the fit and finish to my presentation. I’ve worked with other public speaking coaches in the past, but it wasn’t until working with Gigi that I began to really understand how to maintain a personal connection with my audience.”

“Talented, passionate, and professional are the first words that come to mind when describing Gigi. I was particularly pleased with Gigi’s ability to take a complex topic, simplify it while keeping it engaging, and most importantly, comfortable enough for me to deliver authentically.”

“We partnered with Gigi for help with our presentation and public speaking skills. What we got was invaluable insight into who we are as a company, the unique roles and perspectives we each bring, and the confidence to fully express our passion for what we do. Gigi is fun, energetic, and, above all, empowering!”

“If you are looking to up your team’s game or your own game, you found the right person to help!”

“Gigi is the anti-anxiety medicine for public speakers. Non-habit forming.”

“Gigi helped me make a pitch more succinct, easier to understand and honed in on opportunities for clever editing of key words to enhance the overall delivery. Her feedback was specific, clear, and impactful. She is warm, clever, charming and overall a pleasure to work with.”

“The simple—and easy to follow—tips Gigi gave me have helped my camera confidence. She’s helping me go from camera-shy to camera-‘hi!’”

“My speech went incredibly well. I received at least 10+ compliments that I had the best speech and I feel very happy about our preparation together because when the time came I had no nerves. I didn’t look at my notes once. I have a newfound confidence in my ability to speak in front of people and prepare. Pretty cool experience. Kind of exhilarating, to be honest.”

“When the pandemic hit, I had to transform a professional leadership program into a teleconference experience. The tools and inspiration Gigi offered changed my game. Completely. She reframed and transformed my thinking. In turn, I was able to transform my program into a teleconference experience with great success. Thank you, Gigi! ”

“Thank you Gigi for all the care you put into polishing my TED-style talk. Your encouragement, dedication and eye for detail helped me take my speech to the next level.”

“Gigi is an amazing public speaking coach. Her insights are always combined with authentic enthusiasm, and her criticisms are always paired with clear suggestions for improvement. I went in thinking our sessions were about one particular speaking engagement, and came out realizing that my time with Gigi had helped me reimagine many other projects. It was a joy to work with her!”

“Gigi helps our faculty take their years of research and turn it into an 8-minute talk. Wow! What a task! Gigi brings a sense of calmness and power to each meeting. We highly recommend Gigi, and can’t wait to work with her again this Fall!”

“Thank you, Gigi, for your wise counsel, enthusiasm, and supportive advice in developing my TED-style talk.”

“As a woman in academia, I really appreciate Gigi’s reminder to “own” my speaking space, rather than to ask permission from my audience to speak. Talking through how to be a more effective public speaker with Gigi was so helpful. I think about her often when I am in meetings now. Our extra time to debrief had the biggest impact for me.”

“Gigi is one of those rare individuals who can change people’s lives for the better. Her involvement with our professional group, ATD, has sharpened the networking skills of our members, including one person who landed a job right after hearing her presentation to our group!”

“Many thanks to Gigi for her help with the flow of my talk—especially her advice on transitions and how to create one takeaway. My talk is much clearer now. She’s been so helpful!”

“For those of you in the Portland area, Gigi is a gem and great to work with on public speaking!”

“We recently partnered with Gigi for one of our Mulberry Talent Partners Job Search Workshops where she spoke on ‘How to Show Up Confidently Online.” She presented beautifully, was incredibly engaging, and her energy shone through the screen. It is easy, and fun, to learn from Gigi!”

“I’m laminating Gigi’s Cheat Sheet and keeping it in my top drawer at the office so I can pull it out at any time! She’s a wonderful public speaking coach, full of constructive insights and thoughtful suggestions.”

“Gigi Rosenberg is one of the most creative, entrepreneurial consultants I know. Her skills match her work, because she helps her clients become better marketers and self-advocates. She is also a terrific public speaking coach. We co-facilitated a webinar recently, and I was struck by her wisdom, empathy, humility, and good humor. I hope we get to work together again — soon!”

“I highly recommend Gigi for public speaking coaching. Gigi helped me with a presentation I gave at a conference in front of 200 people. She helped me create a more compelling talk by recommending ways to convey the story so that it flowed more naturally. Her sense of humor and depth of experience made me feel connected to her right away. Thank you, Gigi! ”

“Moderating the panel discussion went better than I ever could have expected! Gigi helped me craft questions, transition smoothly between topics and think through details I hadn’t considered. Afterwards, my mentor complimented me on my professional presence. Pretty awesome all around!”

“Gigi’s coaching helped me transcend the barriers that I normally face as an introvert, where there is so much in my head and so little in my expression. With her help and a couple of practices on the plane, I was transported to a state where I felt my responsibility to tell this story; I understood my “why.” Thank you, Gigi.”

“Gigi’s coaching did a truly effective job of calming my nerves. I also really appreciated the tips she gave me so I could have more fun. The work I did with her will continue to help me in all my future public speaking.
”

“Gigi was extremely professional, attentive and flexible in coaching team members overseas. All reports back highlighted Gigi’s ability to quickly pinpoint areas for speakers to improve while offering practical and helpful solutions to speakers to optimize right away. Gigi’s work far exceeded our expectations. ”

“I felt immensely happy after I gave my presentation. The time and energy I put into the process really paid off. Gigi’s suggestions helped me keep the audience engaged throughout. I received positive feedback not only from my boss but from one of my competitors. I’m so glad I used Gigi’s consulting and I will be back.”

“Thank you for the work you did with me individually to prepare me for my session AND the collective work you did with all of the speakers you worked with. It really paid off. Not only was your advice really valuable but you also lit a fire under those who were less prepared to get ready. By the end we were strong and coherent! We really appreciate it. ”

“We have consulted with Gigi for group training and individual coaching with excellent results. With her innate good humor, she quickly zeros in on a presenter’s strengths, offering practical insights to build confidence and keep audiences engaged. She’s become our secret weapon!”

“Gigi brought insight and knowledge to my staff at MSN that dramatically enhanced their communication skills. She listened, observed, coached individuals to understand unique skills suited to their specific needs. She has an instructional mastery that I have rarely seen.”

“Gigi, thank you so much for everything! I was so nervous when we started the coaching process but, with your help, I ended up having a lot of fun during the presentation. You are an amazing coach! ”

“Gigi gave me several actionable ideas that I incorporated into my remarks which greatly improved my presentation. She also asked me to send her a self-critique of my performance and then followed up with several more ideas for next time. I was impressed at how substantive her suggestions were. She clearly knows her stuff.”

“Gigi’s “Nail Your Elevator Speech” webinar was fantastic. In one hour, she provided valuable food for thought and did it all with warmth, humor and professionalism.”

“I reached out to Gigi for some quick help for a talk I was preparing. This isn’t something I do very often. I was having some amazing bouts of nerves as the day drew closer. We chatted for a while and Gigi asked a lot of great questions and made several suggestions, including “take a walk!” And that did the trick. Walking is my thing. On Gigi’s advice, I planned (and took) a big long walk at my favorite place in Seattle, Seward Park. Set the tone for the whole day and evening. No nerves! Thanks Gigi. ”

“When I came to Gigi I had a lot of little ‘stories’ disorganized in bits and pieces and I struggled to get through them both because I was trying to remember the order and because it was boring. Gigi helped me separate my talk into three distinct sections, with a flashback to the beginning, and organized it in a clear, compelling, and surprising way. When I tell my story this way my listeners seem much more engaged and I don’t get bored telling it so my delivery is better. ”
