Turning an Art into a Science
John Westman, Former President, Bank One, Arizona & CFO Bank One Corp.
“My performance as a speaker greatly improved. I felt I could be me, at last, and know that my talks will be effective, that my audience will be attentive and retain the key message. I have referred this course to many of my colleagues and they too have experienced extraordinary results. The Hendrie Method has my highest recommendation. Its simplicity and profound impact are astounding.”
Bruce Sparks, Area Sales Manager
“Let me take a moment to describe my delight with your class and process, the Hendrie Method… A colleague and I took the class. Then I sent my entire staff. I’ve found immediate improvements impacting my ability to connect with people in any setting, to large groups and small one-on-ones. I watched my colleagues give the best presentation ever just a month after our session.”
PhDs, MDs, RNs, MPAs & NEAs

Bill Geckeler, MD, PhD, Area Medical Director
“My profound thanks to all of you for making this training available to me. Dr “R” and I took the course yesterday. I experienced what I consider to be huge movement in my ability to deliver a compelling and engaging presentation. For me this is by far the best ‘short course’ I’ve ever taken. ”
Principal Commendation Letter
“I had the opportunity and the good fortune to take your very special, “Secrets Course”. As you know, I make presentations on behalf of California Institute of Technology’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and NASA on a regular basis and have always been well received.
A few days after I took your course, I delivered a presentation to 300 people at a NASA Conference in Rhode Island. The feedback was better than ever, and as I left, a number of people expressed their appreciation and commended my delivery and effective communication of the subject matter.
One man that stopped me previously saw me present similar materials to his groups of about 50 people. I have always received extremely high evaluation scores from these critical audiences; however, his reaction to my delivery showed extraordinary enthusiasm. I know why. He saw an even better performance due to “Secrets for Exceptional Speaking.”
All facets of the course convey many benefits and I cannot easily choose which provides the most help; however learning the tools to “connect with an audience” conveys a very key effective ingredient. I find connecting easy now and as a result my audiences really listen and stay interested.
My supervisor, the Director of Engineering and Science, is an experienced speaker. Nearly all of JPL’s technical engine report to him and he reports directly to JPL’s Director. He used the “Secrets” self study video to improve and give his speaking even more polish.
I hope more of our California Institute of Technology – JPL employees have the opportunity to take the Secrets Course. Anyone, from beginners to experienced speakers, can improve with special skills from your course. I find the dramatic improvement in a matter of hours quite remarkable.”

“The program on Saturday morning was terrific! I can see why you are so successful. I’ve been telling everyone how you were able to transform so many in such a short amount of time. I was most impressed with my Chinese group in spite of their difficulties with the English Language…they appeared confident and spoke well by the end. I gave my book to my two nieces who will graduate in May to read and practice. Thanks and hope to see you again in the near future.”
“What a week! Thank you, especially on behalf of the non-profit APA organizations. Now, all of us have new tools to work with when we have the opportunity to speak.”
