Mikki Williams, Csp, Cpae is a Chair/Speaker/Coach/Facilitator at Vistage International, the World's Leading Executive Organization at Vistage International. They possess expertise in motivational speaking, workshop facilitation, public speaking, coaching, training and 46 more skills. Colleagues describe them as "Most speakers are like diamonds: found in the rough natural state are not very impressive. As rough diamonds, they have none of the magical flashes of light which in the finished stone make them so unique. It takes another diamond and a superlative degree of skill to polish and facet a rough diamond to it's true brilliance and value. If you want to shine as a speaker, Mikki is the perfect coach. She knows - and have done - it all in this area, tells it like it is, and you WILL get better for it." and "If you plan to take the stage and stand in front of hundreds, or thousand of people and want to be GREAT at it, then Mikki's Speaker School is a 'must'. It should be on everyone's 'bucket list'. As a fitness professional personality, I have been on many stages speaking to inspire others and thought I was pretty good at it, until I attended; Mikki's Speaker School! The two and a half days of material, presentations and information was some of Mikki's twenty-five years of experience as a speaker, and entrepreneur, all packaged and presented in a professional manner and classy environment. The time I attended, it was a small and intimate group of 10 women (which was a first to have all women), allowing us all the time needed for personal attention and evaluation. Mikki's humor and outrageous personality made the delivery of information entertaining, never once did I need a cup of coffee to keep me on my toes, she made sure of that! With all the information, tips, and techniques Mikki shared with us, I can see why people take the course over and over again, it's an investment with great rewards if you put it to practice. Thank you Mikki Williams for doing what you do and sharing your expertise with us through your Speaker School. It was an honor to learn from a Speaker Hall of Fame-er! ~Tamilee Webb M.A. aka Ms. Buns of Steel™ "
