Thank you very much, Linda! I don't know how I should thank you, just you are amazing. This is true that what they have written in the email, from the MIT Poland. They said that your consultations was the highest promoted by the alumni of the MIT program.
Lukasz SkryplonekCEO
Linda’s two-day Perfect Pitch workshop was incredibly helpful. It is well structured and provides a generous amount of time for peer feedback. My only regret is that we didn’t access her expertise months ago.

Compelling communications are my passion
Few outcomes are more exciting than when a great idea, project or organization receives the traction it deserves.
But too often, innovators fail to get the resources they need because the people who could help decide instead to invest in other projects.
People with resources invest them in value propositions that they care about, whether the innovator leads a startup, a nonprofit, a division of a multinational corporation, or a sales team.
To succeed, your message needs to rise above the noise and engage your audience.
