“What a great experience working with Herman – the most helpful public speaking training I’ve had. He has different techniques that are unique to him. I picked up helpful pieces of info right out of the shoot. I’ve worked with him now in a group setting as well as one on one. I would recommend both. I have also recommended him to others at my company.”
