Testimonials
Here's what CLO clients have said about our services:
"Michael is an engaging speaker, an excellent communicator, and a great listener. He led a 1 hour interactive presentation that he created on employee engagement for a series of recent business partner meetings. The presentation was extremely well received by the audience and generated action plan activities to put into practice what was covered."

"Michael, thank you for being sensitive to my fear of public speaking. I now have more confidence and am ready to apply what I learned for my big day next month. I really do feel I 'command the room' as you put it. Never really thought of myself as a public speaker until now."

"Michael, I just want to thank you for renewing and refreshing my mind about my employees and my job in general. I was at the Canon Summit Tuesday where you spoke and I absolutely have sung your praises ever since. Beyond being an amazing speaker, you really opened my eyes to my management skills that had gone stale. I am a good manager but you showed me that I definitely can be a better manager. You have indeed made a difference in me! And the Platinum rule . . . Brilliant, absolutely BRILLIANT!"

"Passionate and compassionate! I have never seen so much energy and drive to make us feel like we were getting our time and money's worth. I envy his humor and style."

"I dreaded coming to a workshop on grammar and punctuation. I said to my wife this morning 'What's next? Watching paint dry?' Boy, was I wrong. Michael made the day not only educational but fun. I have an increased appreciation of writing and will definitely not be making some of those embarrassing mistakes anymore. Well done!"
--F.W., Sales, Abbott Laboratories

"Excellent program and excellent course content. Michael was the best instructor I have seen--probably ever."
