Introduction: Audiences get WOW! experiences when I am hired for a keynote, breakout session, workshop, or retreat. I spread infectious enthusiasm for life and belief in the inner winner to climb the ladder of success. I give real help, not just theory. I love to see Ah-Ha moments of understanding in the eyes of audience members. It gets my adrenaline pumping to make them laugh with anecdotes from my life. I am an expert in leadership for a more productive workforce with programs on Discretionary Effort Leadership, Results Driven Teams, and Next Level Charisma and Confidence. Seeing Others with 20/20 Vision is a popular program that always gets rave reviews. It is based on the DISC, Driving Forces, and Emotional Intelligence assessment I offer. Unique programs popular with women's groups are Expect Success (living your life with positive expectation); Harmonize Your Life (a life balance program using musical principles); and All Stressed Up And No Where to Go (a program that teaches stress control). As a time management guru, Manage the Chaos is a popular program.

I have had the pleasure of working with Karla Brandau for over a year, and I am continually impressed with her presentation style and content of her training workshops. Her organization and time management and MS Outlook strategies are effective and straightforward. The attentiveness she affords to workshop attendees reflects her genuine passion to help others overcome workplace challenges with regards to technology and time management. Also, Karla's professional delivery style highlights the rich experience she possesses as a professional speaker and training facilitator. Overall, the positive feedback from workshop attendees attests to the fact that Karla's interactive instruction and passion for professional self-improvement are timely and have lasting impacts in the workplace.

I've had the privilege of working with Karla in several professional capacities over the past 8 years, in each case it has always been a pleasure. The first seminar I participated in led by Karla was in 2013. Aside from being a very engaging meeting, her guidance and recommendations significantly (and positively) impacted the direction and momentum of our team for several years-- and still does in many ways. More recently I participated in a TTI assessment with her. Her feedback was insightful and spot-on, but I had long come to expect nothing less from her. In short, I highly recommend Karla as a speaker, as a professional coach, and as an amazing all around person.

I worked with Karla Brandau about 5 years. During that time I was amazed at this LADY! Karla is a GIFT to everyone she is around, teaches, trains or even "JUST" speaks with. Karla is a SPECIAL woman of essence. Her spirit over comes adversity and negative thoughts people have in various situations. A VERY SPECIAL lady! Karla's charisma and her smile seems to overcome folks that "normally" aren't paying attention! She is valorous in her training displaying a particular courage and humbleness at the same time.This is a MOST EXCELLENT LADY! Any training anyone may need as an individual or a company, will see and hear and become attached to what Karla is teaching.Anyone, in any business, will definitely appreciate Karla's presentation and her ability to "HOLD" the attention of all in attendance.Sincerely,Paul DannemanYou CAN'T go wrong having this lady as a trainer!
