Testimonials

“I wanted to personally thank you for donating the DVD on Presentation Skills for Attorneys. I am a speaker at the ABA next weekend so I watched and listened to your Seminar. I got some great tips including...what NOT to wear! I'm on a panel and probably won't be able to get up but I'll try! I'll at least employ some of your other helpful hints if standing up is not possible. Thanks again. I will share your DVD with others in my department. And thanks so much for caring about the welfare of animals!.”

– Jill A. Buckley, Esq.
Legislative Liaison, ASPCA

Faith Pincus speaks eloquently and effectively on a key topic to all lawyers: how to make oneself a successful public speaker. In a few short hours, Faith gave all our firm’s lawyers a basic skill set they will carry with them for the rest of their careers. The value of Faith’s workshop goes beyond her skill as a teacher. Faith also takes a heavy load off the shoulders of older lawyers by teaching younger lawyers lessons in a friendly manner that is non-threatening.

McNutt & Litteneker, LLP

I worked with Faith years ago when I was the Vice President of Corporate Affairs at Hollywood Park Race Track Inc. and we were in the middle of a highly contentious campaign to bring card club casinos to the track. She was truly inspirational. Now that I'm in commercial real estate investments and brokerage, I brought her back again to refine my public speaking skills and help me market and brand myself through public speaking engagements in this highly competitive industry. Her knowledge is invaluable and she's a pleasure to work with.

Dynamic! Her Presentation Skills for Attorneys seminar is full of useful information and she has a natural presentation style that keeps your attention even over the course of a full-day. Her mistakes not to make session was worth the entire price of the seminar.

– Charlotte Sternlieb, Attorney

I train people for a living. The ability to communicate is central to my success as a consultant and I found Faith's one-on-one coaching invaluable. She seems to really understand what it takes to connect to an audience. She was able to show me exactly how to do just that. My presentation skills have improved significantly since our sessions.

– Jim Sulcer

Faith is a natural speaker; people listen to her. She conveys messages that are understandable and does it in a friendly, easily comprehensible manner. She makes sense of complex things for folks who aren't used to the subject matter.

We had Faith give a small-group training session to our management staff whose job it is to give public presentations on a regular basis. They loved her and can't wait to have her back.

Faith explains things in such a way as to make the listener feel involved and intelligent rather than having the feeling of being lectured. This ability to come down to the level of the listener without giving the impression of having done so is a trait very few people have.
