What clients say
I’ve worked with a broad range of clients – and they all recognise the value and impact that confident, engaging presenters and communicators have.
People who can positively connect with – and influence – the people they’re speaking to, for measurable action and results. Whether that’s via a presentation, speech, media or panel appearance.
Below is a sample of feedback: what clients say, followed by organisations I’ve worked with.
Sarah delivered a fantastic, engaging session for our staff. This is not training they had ever done before and all walked away feeling more confident in not only delivering public speaking, but most importantly, in the planning for any speaking engagement. We would definitely recommend to other organisations.

Sarah Denholm was the guest speaker at the Whitehorse Business Group’s ‘Speaking for Business’ Seminar. Sarah led a very interesting and informative session that received an overwhelmingly positive response from our guests. Her presentation was well summed-up by one guest, who said that Sarah “certainly practices what she preaches”. We would highly recommend Sarah to any organisation interested in learning more about public speaking.

Sarah was an absolute pleasure to deal with. My staff were given the materials, guidance and confidence to learn in a welcoming environment. I would highly recommend Sarah’s Public Speaking training to the recruitment industry.

Team Leader – Town Planning & Local Government at Aspect Personnel
Sarah has so much to offer with her range of courses, and as a coach. I found Sarah to have an uncanny knack of diagnosing the problem and presenting an immediate solution. Sarah was professional, responsive, calm, patient, and understanding. If you are hesitant in pursuing a public speaking course, please don’t be with Improve your Public Speaking! Thank you, Sarah!

Our team engaged Sarah Denholm to deliver her program to our medical workforce. Clinicians and practice staff, particularly in a rural setting, are often placed in leadership positions without the skills to deliver their message effectively.
Sarah’s presentation was perfectly delivered to everyone that attended, whether they were a practice manager, nurse, doctor in training or specialist clinician. Her calm, approachable manner allowed all of us to feel at ease and practice our new skills. I would strongly recommend her for any organisation wishing to help their workforce around leadership and public speaking.

Sarah takes you through the entire journey in a supportive and interactive environment. Sarah uses contemporary, researched models in her teaching and gives you constructive feedback with tips and tricks every week.
I cannot thank Sarah enough, and it is one of the best decisions you can make for your own personal and professional development.

Sarah is a phenomenal coach. She understands her subject matter deeply and takes time with each of her students. Her courses are highly recommended for those looking to improve their public speaking or influencing skills.

Sarah is a phenomenal coach!
I highly recommend Sarah’s course to anyone who wants to improve their communication techniques. The course provided me with a range of tools for structuring, presenting and dealing with nerves and anxiety associated with public speaking. The safe and supportive environment was perfect for practicing and refining my communication and presentation skills.

Adverto was very impressed with the work that Sarah produced for us. Her take on spoken presentations has allowed us to present to some of the worlds largest petroleum companies with ease and comfort. Working with Sarah was a pleasure; due to her professionalism and knowledge. We would happily use her skills again in the future.

Administration Manager and Content Coordinator - Adverto
What a wonderful experience this was! Sincere thanks from the Assets team at Southern Grampians Shire Council. We were a diverse group with unique challenges but your tailored program allowed us to develop as individuals, in the areas we needed most. Your workshops were challenging, but engaging and fun as well – no easy feat given two out of three were delivered remotely during Covid. You’ve armed us with techniques we can use professionally and personally for the rest of our lives. Best of all, I no longer fear the spotlight! In our first session I realised I’d been carrying around more than 30 years of false beliefs about my public speaking abilities, then I let them go. What a gift that was.
Angela Spillman
Engineering Support Officer - Southern Grampians Shire Council
Our consultants found it a delight and a pleasure working with Sarah Denholm. Sarah’s modules were constructed with content that was grounded in psychology and human behaviour. Her practical tips and approaches were well received too. During her workshops, Sarah was able to draw out the most reluctant of our consultants and make them participate enthusiastically.
The sessions were thoroughly enjoyable while being educational and practical. Thank you, Sarah. We have no hesitation in recommending Sarah’s course to others who are looking for such programs.

As someone with a fear of Public Speaking, I was hesitant to have training in something that I really did not enjoy. Sarah made me feel relaxed instantly, and gave me excellent advice in all aspects of public speaking.
I’ve conducted two training sessions since, both of which went very well. Prior to Sarah’s training I would not have had the courage to do this. I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking to improving their presentation and communication skills. Oh, and I did Public Karaoke this weekend – your training definitely worked!
