Richard Wolfe, Senior Vice President of Sales at Fluor

“Kelly delivered a dynamic and engaging talk to our senior sales and communication team of about 50 people at our conference in Charleston, NC. Her expertise in effective communication is almost scientific, and she provided examples of what works and what doesn't when it comes to presenting and sales pitches. She connected with a highly diverse group of senior executives, and her storytelling approach made it easy to relate to clients and prepare to understand their viewpoints. Kelly's presentation was particularly valuable for our team, as we focus on pursuing government contracts, writing compelling proposals, and presenting internally for commercial reviews and strategic planning.

Kelly's stage presence captured the room, and her unbridled energy, relaxed demeanor, and confidence made her a great teacher. She worked with our team to provide suggestions and personal experience to address challenges in communication in an old-school market. Additionally, she took the time to meet with many people before her talk and included their insights in her presentation. Kelly and her team exceeded our expectations, and we have retained her to work with our sales team. We recommend Win The Room unequivocally.”

"Kelly! Your inspiring talk and how you stayed afterwards to answer all of my questions were of utmost importance to me. Today, my confidence soared, and you became the best part of my life. Thanks so much Kelly and do visit New Delhi again very soon. "
