Inquiry About Working Together

“Janice Tomich coached me twice in preparation for a keynote speech. I hired her to help me fine-tune my opening and closing remarks, I was so happy with the first session I hired her to help me with my introductory bio and transitions in my talk. The sessions were short and conveniently over the phone. She was very effective and focused and exceeded my expectations. ”

“You have lifted me a mile above the ground!! Thank you for the bottom of my heart.”

“I hired Janice to help me with my first keynote presentation. I’m a comfortable public speaker, but I wanted help taking it to a higher level. Janice was well worth the investment of time and money. From finding the right shape for the presentation to selecting anecdotes to watching multiple recordings (!)and providing feedback, Janice was there every step of the way. She has the rare gift of making you feel completely safe and supported while providing challenging and constructive feedback. I achieved my goal of delivering an excellent and well-received keynote, but more importantly, I learned much that will help me in feature endeavors. Hire Janice. You won’t regret it.”

“I have a feeling that my work with you, when I look back at it in a few years, will be pivotal in my trajectory. That rainy morning, sitting at your glass table when I connected with not having to be perfect. That and everything that followed will be pivotal. Thank you for providing me with the space to go there. I have also come to understand that I have to keep doing this. I have to keep speaking, putting myself out there and growing. I thought to myself after the presentation: "Ok, when is the next one? When do I do this again?" You certainly would not have heard me say that 6 months ago! Janice, I cannot thank you enough. I will keep all your pearls of wisdom close to my heart and keep working on all those things you allowed me to see. You are amazing at what you do. ”

“By attending one of Janice's workshops and reading her newsletter, I have learned new skills and ideas that have greatly improved my abilities in speaking and teaching workshops. Janice can help you learn how to truly engage your audience, not just present to them.”

“Janice was brought on to work with a diverse group of practitioners in preparation for a large conference we were hosting. Janice was able to work with each presenter individually, and in pairs, assessing their strengths and weaknesses. Janice’s commitment to the quality of our event was clear from day one; she was actively invested in the development of each presenter.”

“One of the big achievements I had working with Janice is now I feel present. I can breathe and think clearly when communicating, even when speaking off the cuff. When I need to speak, even on short notice, I can put my thoughts together in a logical flow without having to write it out.”

“Janice worked with one of our speakers for the 2012 TEDMED conference held at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. The speaker reported that he enjoyed the experience and that he appreciated Janice’s input very much. From my perspective, the speaker’s presentation clearly benefited from Janice’s expertise and assistance. The speaker’s somewhat shy, diffident delivery became more conversational and lively. His tendency to sink into a low monotone at times was replaced by a better modulated, more mellifluous tone of voice. His use of effective gestures and comfort in moving on the stage also increased...”

“Thank you again for your coaching… It went a long way in helping me better connect with the audience. ”

“Your insight and encouragement in my role of MC for our annual conference was a big help to me. I had content that I felt confident enough to ad-lib to and I believe that it came across well…you do good work!”
