TESTIMONIALS

Brock Wagner

“Erik’s attention to detail and passion for the spoken (and unspoken) word transferred into unforgettable lessons that remain with me. When I was preparing to present a multi-million dollar technology concept to C-level executives, Erik sought to understand first then apply his experience and knowledge in the best way I needed. I owe him a great debt of gratitude! I would recommend Erik because he pays attention! He’s attentive to the words and message when you speak. He seeks to understand and is unapologetically open himself. Easy to talk to and always looking for the ways he can help and provide value, he’s a blessing to know and share time with!”

“You don’t cross paths with many trainers in the field of public speaking who are as genuine, gracious, and insightful as Erik. He brings experience, powerful questions, and a whole bag of tools that are valuable not only for those with a tremendous fear of public speaking but for seasoned speakers, too. If you get the chance to work with Erik, I promise it will change the way you look at public speaking. It certainly did for me!”
