The speaker training helped me realize the value of being customer centric in the story telling process. I loved how Marisa challenged us to bring our own personal experiences and customer stories from the frontlines to our talks. The most valuable takeaway from the training was learning how to design and structure our talking points for both interviews and pitches. It was invaluable to peek behind the curtain to see how the pros do it!

The one-on-one presentation coaching class I took with Jim Paymar has been invaluable in improving my presentation skills. Jim is a phenomenal and friendly teacher who clearly conveys the principles of how to deliver an effective presentation through excellent illustrative examples. The class was tailored to my specific needs, focusing on pitching to an executive audience through a series of mock presentations that are recorded and critiqued in detail for a number of factors, including body language, tone, pacing, facial expression, and presentation content.

I have known Bill McGowan for almost two decades and he and his team are the best media trainers around! They have helped me refine messaging and prepare executives I have worked with at multiple companies for media interviews and speaking engagements.

I worked with Mariko for my research job interview. She did a lot of research on the job I'm applying to and my background. Throughout the sessions, she provided me with great suggestions from general strategies to little details of preparing the interview. Our session is tremendously helpful, and Mariko is very perceptive and supportive. I will definitely recommend it!

I'v worked with David several times over the years. His trainings are always fantastic with strong, actionable recommendations. In addition, David is personable and energetic, making the experience (which can be intimidating) enjoyable.

Highly recommended, a memorable experience. We did two work sessions with David Puente from Clarity. They were very special classes. Thanks to his simple and elegant way of explaining the value of personal communication and through personal practices, we learned very quickly techniques and strategies to give your best image in every meeting and presentation. It was a very enriching experience.

I attended media training with a client who doesn't love any aspect of speaking with the media. David put her at ease, focused on her strengths and showed her how to not work as hard when speaking with the media. While sitting in on the training I learned best practices on how to help the talent I work with form their best answers by validating the interviewer and working on headline statements.

I've been doing media trainings with Bill for the last eight years to prepare for an annual awards show that I host. Bill took me from wobbly and unsure to poised and confident, and I've used his teachings in many other business settings, which has helped me grow in my job. He is a master at script doctoring as well, so I always feel like what I'm saying is as good as how I'm saying it. I genuinely appreciate his relaxed, friendly approach, which makes you feel at ease. If you're a first timer at media training, you honestly can't get a better trainer; for people needing a brushup, Bill and Clarity Media will take you to the next level.
