Testimonials
Thank you for the
outstanding job your did in presenting "WOMEN Leaders"
at our 2009 Annual Meeting and Convention. This
was the first time we had offered a women's only
breakout and your message was a huge success.
Your energy and
enthusiasm was contagious and your ability to connect
with our attendees really seemed to keep them engaged
and excited about your message. Thanks for putting
this program together and uplifting the women leaders of
our credit union movement in Kansas.

Evans, AVP Education and Training, Kansas Credit Union
Association
As a professional
REALTOR, I serve buyers and sellers regarding real
estate transactions. As you can imagine, it is not easy
to deliver difficult information whether it be to
Sellers expecting a higher offer or Buyers whose offer
was declined. This was my motivation for attending the
Natalie Manor & Associates "Delivering Difficult
Information Successfully" Workshop.
During the course of
the workshop, the opportunity to absorb the information
provided and to participate in actual case study
analysis and presentation was most invaluable. I found
your repeated suggestion of ‘be curious’ to ‘dig deeper
to get to the root of the matter’ was most
enlightening. I experienced (vs. learned) that there is
more beneath the surface than meets the eye when digging
for more information through the exercises. I also
gained a greater appreciation for the various behavioral
styles through the leadership and communication
assessment as to how each
profile communicates, which has been helpful in
providing comparative market analyses for listing
agreements thereby understanding what motivates people
and being able to recognize how to effectively deal with
others.
All in all, improved
communications skills reduce stress and conflict. Now
that’s a recipe for success!
I would be remiss if I
didn’t mention the contribution NMA made not only in the
arena of effective communications through techniques,
tactics and tips, but also the generosity provided in
offering the workshop without fee. Ipswich Rotary
Charitable Trust Fund is the recipient of ~$2500 (final
numbers yet to be verified) and this contribution
enabled Friends Forever group of Israeli teens (Arabs
and Jews) to visit the US and promote world peace and
understanding through daily interaction among these
teens in their visit to Rotary Clubs in the Northeast.
Thank you Natalie Manor and Associates for not only the
expertise imparted in the workshop regarding effective
communication skills but also the impact you have made
in promoting world peace and understanding through your
generosity.
Ingrid F. Miles, President, Ipswich Rotary Club
We thoroughly enjoyed
your “Delivering Difficult Information Successfully”
presentation at the WILL luncheon. Your presentation
provided such timely and valuable information on how to
deal with difficult issues that come up in the
workplace.
Natalie, you are a very
personal and an energetic speaker. As I sat in the
audience, you made us feel as though we were all long
time friends!
Your “Delivering
Difficult Information Successfully” presentation was fun
and interactive and left a long lasting impression upon
all of us. I heard audience members discussing how they
were going to implement the tips and techniques they
received from your informative session as they left the
banquet hall.
We look forward to
having you as a continued resource for WILL and our
other Brookings Area Chamber of Commerce events.

I
have been attending leadership conferences within the
AAF 7th District for five years. By far you had
captivated the group more than any other speaker I have
ever seen. The break out session was packed full.
People with other meeting obligations left, to attend
your session on delivering difficult information
successfully after their meetings. In fact, people
poured into the room until we were at capacity. People
signed up for sessions, asked for additional information
and asked so many questions that the breakout session
lasted beyond the allocated time.
The
beauty of NMA’s Roadmap for Extraordinary Success is
that it is relevant no matter what job a person is in.
Account Executives, Creative Directors, Agency
Presidents, Media Buyers and others all benefit from
your years of leadership and coaching success. The
strength of your coaching is that you train people to
use their own strengths on their own roadmap for
success. Natalie, you are not a motivational speaker,
you are “America's Top Confidence Coach."
I
feel your series is relevant and produces sustainable
results with lasting positive effects. The AAF as a
whole would benefit from your insight and leadership and
I strongly recommend you as a speaker for our national
convention.

Natalie,
you are just good! You care and the people know
it. You are funny. Your content is always perfect and
I never have to worry about whether you will hit the
mark with what we are trying to provide to our
participants. You always hit the bulls eye. Don’t ever
say no when I ask you to come speak…please?
Julia Phelps, Mass Department of Education, former
Superintendent of Schools
After only
one hour in Natalie’s presentation/workshop, I was given
the insight and guidance to handle a minimum of three
difficult situations I was dreading and procrastinating
in dealing with! It was an incredible hour and helped
me personally and professionally see how important it is
to know myself and what I want and to LISTEN!

VP, Imedia Group, Former AAF District 7 Governor
We have enjoyed having you so much. Thank you for your
willingness to put together a talk for our East TN
Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals
so quickly.
You are an energetic and dynamic speaker that interacted
with our group brilliantly while staying on topic. We
appreciate that you researched our needs as a group and
didn’t fail on delivery.
You gave us timely, real world tips, techniques and
strategies that we can use immediately in professional
lives. Your co-authored “Give Stress A Rest” is an
invaluable tool for any professional dealing with the
pace of business and stress in their lives.

Treasurer, Association for Fundraising

The 'Delivering Difficult Information workshop presented by
NMA was definitely one of the most worthwhile professional
development activities I have participated in. The concepts
addressed helped give me perspective on situations in my own
workplace, and I was able to apply them immediately.
Christan M. Thomas, Education Writer, Kingsport Times-News
I really enjoyed your session and have been using tidbits
from it in my daily dealings.
Thank you for making learning such an enjoyable experience.
