What we did for them, we can do for you!

Stephani Victor - A gold medal client!


"I've worked with Laurie Burton training for over 20 years and little did I know that my life as an actress would segway into becoming a Paralympic athlete because of a devastating accident. These skills that I learned from Laurie have been a useful part of my professional career as a motivational speaker and a very important vital part of my performances at the Paralympic Games."

Applause for Laurie Burton


"Laurie Burton should be cloned! She is the most intuitive, perceptive and expressive teacher ever. When combined with her incredible energy and her sheer love of the ‘art of communication,’ she is redefining corporate culture."

- Keith Hippely–Director, Boys Toys, Mattel Toys, Inc.


"20th Century Fox views Laurie Burton Training as a strategic partner, crucial to our success. We have enjoyed better communications, improved clarity and increased results across the board."

- Pat Wyatt–President, 20th Century Fox, Licensing & Management


"Laurie Burton Training has been an essential partner in my success as a speaker and as a member of the TWA Board of Directors. I am more comfortable, animated and expressive and have more fun in all of my interactions."

- Brent Miller–TWA Board of Directors (ret.)


"Believing what you say and being believable are critical elements of effective selling. Your approach hits this important target dead center. Special thanks for your effectiveness in conducting the IBM seminar. We have had all kinds of requests for follow-on sessions. Laurie, what has impressed me the most is your ability to help marketing people see their personal communication strengths and see ways to build on those strengths. Somehow, you seem able to help people get out of their shells. Yet, you have a touch which avoids rebellion or resentment of your very direct approach."

- Skip Hoyt—Western Region Branch Manager, IBM

From 20th Century Fox:

“I’ve always heard it was important but until now I didn’t really know how to incorporate my personality into my presentation.”


“Finally! A training program that gets past the superficial, technical aspects and embraces the whole person!”


“I’ve participated in, literally, hundreds of hours of trainings and this is the first time the program was so dramatically better than advertised, so far-reaching. You over-delivered. You’re not charging enough!”


“I came in a skeptic and left a communicator. It brought the “co-workers” closer together and will certainly improve internal communications. My progress from one stage to the next was evident in my final presentation. My confidence and enthusiasm increased significantly.”

From Mattel Toys:

“We are in a very competitive department and underlying hostility within my group was threatening to undermine all our success—that’s all in the past. We’re now experiencing more interconnectedness and team spirit than I believed was possible.”


“Videotape, peer feedback (giving and receiving), role-playing, team-building…I’ve had it all. Nothing compares to the Laurie Burton Training experience.”


“It’s not just about the product—it’s about the relationship we have with our customers. I’m having the best year of my career!”


“I’m more confident and relaxed, especially under pressure! I’m not afraid to risk being myself anymore. And, I’m more attuned to my customers now.”

From Medtronics MiniMed:

“Good pace and approach, started easy and then pushed the envelope. Moved our entire group from nervousness to confidence. The “vitality” speech was an amazing experience from the standpoint of doing the speech and also from watching others.”


“You did a great job of getting everyone involved with lots of practice. I enjoyed being able to give presentations in a number of different settings. We’ve always tried to do it in all our previous trainings but this was the first time it really worked!”


“I love your capacity to draw us out. I love the ‘space’ you create that allows for risk. I really appreciate your ability to demonstrate what you are asking of us. You are so very polished, skillful, but most of all, what comes through repeatedly is a genuine desire to make this a good experience for us.” -Sally Vasen Alter
