Testimonials


“Laura Darius is one of the finest coaches I have had the pleasure to work with. Her coaching style quickly identifies each client’s unique needs. She then structures a well-defined program to help her clients make lasting changes. Laura easily establishes strong rapport enabling her to have measurable impact from the very beginning of her assignments. Her structured approach insures that all identified coaching goals are met. Quite simply put, she delivers! Clients respect her intellect as well as her coaching style, which draws on a deep understanding of human nature, organizational structure and coaching skills.”

I heartily recommend Laura as a coach to clients both at JPMorgan Chase and to other Human Resource professionals outside of the firm, and will always be pleased to do so- my colleagues and clients have never been disappointed.

“I have sent a number of colleagues and associates to Laura Darius in the last ten years. In each and every case, the benefits of working with Laura have been immediate and long lasting. I will continue to send colleagues to Laura anytime an employee can benefit from her services.”

“Many thanks for all your help over the past few months. I appreciate your giving me a fresh perspective on how I present myself to my colleagues and clients -- and your working with me to modify my communication style and image.

I was very pleased to hear last week that I was promoted to Managing Director. I'm sure that your coaching helped me to win the promotion, and your insights will certainly be useful in my new position.”

”I chose Laura as my language coach because of strong recommendations from several colleagues who worked with her. Laura is truly exceptional. She designed a program tailored to my individual circumstance.

She made my learning process more relevant and fun by anchoring it to my daily business communication. I felt motivated and challenged but also relaxed in every session. In the end, I made pretty noticeable improvement in a fairly effortless way.

I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would recommend Laura to anyone who wants to work with the best language coach".

“I want to say how much I appreciated all the coaching and advice you gave me. I’ve presented twice in front of large audiences since our last session and am pleased to say I did very well in both presentations. I got several comments on what a good job I had done. I can honestly say that had I not gone through the sessions we had, I would not have been anywhere close to as prepared as I was for those presentations. “

Mark Williams, Senior Manager, Medical Strategies and Physician Education
Merck & Co.


“I want to thank you for your evaluation and advice. As the newly appointed VP of Research and Development, your advice on projecting a strong and confident image has been vital. With your advice and coaching steps I have improved the quality of my presentations significantly. In terms of dress, I not only look nicer with my new wardrobe, but I also feel more relaxed (confident) with other executives. Once again, thank you for your help.”

“I have worked with Laura Darius for the past 15 years. I have worked directly with her and sent many Bristol-Myers Squibb employees to spend time with her on their development. Laura has worked with members of my team on a variety of issues ranging from Communication Style to Leadership. Her insight and guidance have been invaluable.”

“Working with Laura has been one of my most valuable experiences in terms of professional development. Her approach was quite targeted to my specific needs and involved in-depth diagnosis followed by development of a concrete action plan moving forward. One of the things I appreciate about Laura is that she holds you accountable for making positive change. Moreover, she is a pleasure to work with.”
