TESTIMONIALS:

"Public speaking is an essential skill required in my position as President of a company offering unique investment opportunities, yet there are very few training courses available that don't seem to require you to go on an expensive and time consuming retreat.  Mitra Lohrasb's combination of knowledge and skills are ideally suited to providing the kind of training I needed.  Mitra gave us a pile of techniques and know-how we could readily put to immediate use, and I started using these in my seminar presentations in Calgary and Vancouver.  I look forward to the next Harvard Advantage course so I can build on what I learned and develop my skills further."

Frederick Margel, President
London Pier Properties Ltd.

"I have not had much experience speaking in public in the past; however, as my role within my new company continues to increase I have been subjected to many public speaking tasks.   Initially I would feel my heart beat faster and my mouth go dry as it came closer for me to speak, but after taking The Harvard Advantage's Public Speaking Class, I have reigned in my fears and learned what caused them, so that I may understand how to conquer and move past those obstructions.  I just recently spoke in front of 200+ people and was amazed at the ease that I felt in front of such a large crowd.  I feel I can communicate to the group rather than talk at them as well as think on my feet with confidence rather than fear the unknown.  Thank you Mitra!"

“I have been in Senior Management positions for over 24 years, and have led the development of seven start-up companies. So I wasn’t sure how much Mitra Lohrasb’s training could bring to my years of experience. But from the moment Ms. Lohrasb started evaluating my speech/presentation, I felt the sincerity, willingness, knowledge, and intelligence of a person who is passionate about helping others in result-oriented communication techniques.

During a 2 hour consultation, Ms. Lohrasb pinpointed errors that I have been making in terms of body language, choices of words and overall effectiveness. She taught me communication techniques that helped me understand my client’s deeper needs, convince them I would make their goals the most important issue, and then honestly persuade them of our capabilities and commitment to fulfill them.

The result: I was able to increase our current sales to this client by 100%, and secure their interest in purchasing our products for their expansion into additional countries.

I recommend the training services provided by The Harvard Advantage to any business that believes in effective communication skills resulting in true partnership building. Mitra Lohrasb possesses all the theoretical and practical knowledge to help you, and the passion to go the extra mile to make sure you succeed.”

"In past 10 years, I have conducted a lot of seminars, delivered presentations and stood in front of over 50,000 people to discuss my ideas. Fear of crowds was never my issue but by learning the techniques in your class, I am a much more effective speaker with greater control inside and out."

"The course gave me the confidence that I will be able to speak very effectively with an impact when presenting to groups. I liked your willingness to give the inside scoops - the secrets behind all good speakers. That made a big impact on me and I thank you so much for that, Mitra."

"Mitra's seminar on Public Speaking gave me easy tips that help to re-balance my energy and calm my nerves.  They were all simple exercises that I do regularly and have made a big impact on my networking skills.  Not only is Mitra a great teacher, she also made me feel comfortable and gave me helpful tips to fine-tune my speaking skills.  I would recommend this course to anybody who would like to enhance their public speaking or who just want to feel more empowered in their own body.  Thank-you Mitra for helping me feel more confident and for showing me how to better connect myself with all of the people in my life!"
