Praise from Executives and Other Satisfied Clients

Carla's presentation "Ace Your Performance Review!" was one of the best educational sessions our Young Professionals Group ever received, I absolutely recommend it to others! Eye-opeining, engaging, and fun!  She incorporated input from our own performance reviews into her Before/After examples, so the material definitely resonated. Great initiative!

Katharyn Tupitza, Young Professionals Group, McCormick & Company Inc.

Write to Influence! will rejuvenate the lost art of clear, concise, professional writing. Corporate CEOs will rejoice at no longer being encumbered by reports difficult to read and frustrating to unravel!

This is the best book for technical writing I have encountered since "The Elements of Style" was drilled into me as an MIT undergraduate!
–Thomas S. Popik, President, Director, and Co-founder of Foundation for Resilient Societies 

This book has been a game-changer for my professional life. Carla's no-fuss, conversational voice made improving my writing skills easy to understand and implement!

This helped me pass my college classes! Carla does an excellent job … MUCH better than a standard textbook!

Life changing lesson …

Powerful writing often tips the balance between success and failure.
