"Alexis' and Jeff's energy was contagious, I always felt as if they were as invested as I was. They helped to turn my dry numbers driven presentation into something more personable and relatable. With their input I felt polished and ready to give the best presentation possible."

"[Jeff] took a very skilled technical team most of whom have never performed at orals and made them look like old pros! You have an uncanny ability to pull the 'right solution' answer out of a team and get them to articulate the client benefit. There is now way that I could have gotten the team ready for this caucus and response approach without you. You are also amazingly patient with a team that was difficult to coach. This is the second time that you had to work so hard to get a team to cooperate and your patience far exceeded mine. At the end of the day, you are like like the horse whisperer - only for Distinguished Engineers. The team's performance at orals was only possible because of you, and perhaps the best indicator of it was how Fred said "we were so prepared because we had practiced all the questions that it seemed easy..."

"Jeff was by far the best orals coach I've worked with. He was engaging, motivating, and came with very specific, substantive upgrades to help strengthen our presentation with every interaction. He helped us gel as a team, highlighted each individual's strengths, and was fun to work with. I would recommend Jeff as an orals coach to colleagues in a heartbeat!”

"Chris is an extremely effective orals coach. He is patient, methodical, and direct in his feedback. The team greatly appreciated him and the approach used was easy to understand, follow and improve with each iterations."

"As a person who does not like public speaking, I was not someone who expected to be put on an Orals team. Jeff made me feel welcome and confident that I could do it. I've told many colleagues already how useful the training was in general -- not just for the proposal -- I feel better about my presentation skills now than I ever have in my career. Jeff knows how to make you feel like you can conquer any obstacle and can really sense what people need."

"While our team had significant experience with the standard Oral Presentation, we did not have experience with the Situational Exercise/Interviews nor do all coaches – we selected Trident and they knew exactly how to prep for all components"
