HIRE ME

I’ve engaged Laurie on a number of projects related to educating and supporting HR and business leaders to help their people grow. Laurie is a thoughtful and creative resource and her genuine interest in helping people and businesses do better comes across in how she collaborates with clients and in how she engages audiences through her work. I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with Laurie on speaking engagements, blogs, thought leadership content, webinars and more. She is quick-witted, personable and a pleasure to work with.

Laurie is one of the most prepared people I know. She asks questions that I hadn’t considered. She thinks differently and takes projects seriously (timelines, deliverables, budget, etc). Come to think of it, I’ve never seen Laurie do anything less than A work. That’s unique in our industry. If you have the opportunity to work with her, do yourself a favor and do so. You won’t regret it.

I was feeling particularly rudderless until my series of coaching conversations with Laurie. She helped me set a direction that seemed not only ambitious but very possible. Laurie’s style is honest, authentic, funny and powerful, and she will not let you bullshit her. I would leave each conversation feeling excited, inspired and pretty damn nervous, which is exactly what I needed. Laurie’s attention and focus is on you and helping you create the career you want during each of your sessions, you might just forget how HR Famous she really is.
