"I met Karol after hearing her speak at a professional organization. I liked her style of communication and her ability to share concepts about confidence. I felt I could work well with her and wanted to improve how I expressed myself in professional settings. I felt I needed these skills to gain more visibility in my career. I was looking to develop clarity when speaking, writing, and informing my audience on new and current innovations in my department.

Karol has helped me navigate how to ask for what I want in a powerful yet non-threatening manner. I learned that it’s okay to ask for what you want even if what you are asking for doesn’t happen right way. She helped me develop a list of key communication phrases and exercises that I find very useful. Karol helped me build my confidence and that is something I carry with me daily. I highly recommend her as a coach for high level executives needing confidence and communication tools".

"Karol coached several members of our executive team at Bauer Xcel Media in the areas of leadership confidence, interpersonal communication skills and presentation skills. She has a unique and impactful approach to her coaching due to her deep psychological training. Karol is able to perceive what is going on beneath the surface of the issues and conflicts at hand. She’s incredibly skilled at helping move the people she coaches from problem to solution-oriented thinking very quickly. The results are impressive, and meetings with Karol always result in increased clarity, productivity and empowerment. I could not recommend her more as a coach".

"I contacted Karol because I wanted more visibility in my career and to improve my confidence overall.
I was  feeling overwhelmed with work responsibilities, speak up more in the workplace and become a more confident presenter. 

Since working with Karol, I’ve found it easier to take on difficult assignments and work through challenging team management situations. I’m getting better at managing up and communicating more directly with my peers in management.

I believe confidence is largely a psychological issue, and Karol’s background in psychology makes her unique as coach. She’s able to listen closely, replay things back to me, and help me understand what is in the way of my confidence. She also sends great follow up notes that  I continue to refer to when I need to.  Karol gets you results when you are looking to build your confidence"

"I highly recommend Karol Ward as a presentation coach. Within moments of working with me on a very important speech, Karol was able to pinpoint and adjust my delivery. She not only guided me on how I was speaking but gave me key suggestions on the crafting and structure of my entire presentation. Her warmth, insight and support made a big difference in how I approached and rehearsed my speech. In the end her coaching helped make my presentation a success."

"Karol is terrific, supportive and appropriately challenging as a coach. 

Because of my work with her,I am much more confident about my performance and interactions.    Karol breaks down events/relationships into smaller topics.  This helped me develop mini-steps for moving forward professionally.  My best testimonial is she now coaches my wife on building her private practice".
