You’ve proven your value to us time and time again, but recently, I was amazed at your ability to quickly simplify and humanize a complex 200-year old argument and help our company present our message with results.
You understand your business, services, products, vision and ideas. But, if you can’t succinctly tell listeners what it means to them, your message will fall on deaf ears.
When it comes to managing and distilling the message, Karen Friedman provides incredibly valuable training, guidance and perspective.

Turning words and explanations into powerful messages that resonate with different audiences is essential for anyone trying to create understanding, influence perceptions, communicate during difficult times or ignite action.
Our hands-on message development sessions help you prioritize and condense information so you can differentiate between everything you think you need to say versus what your listeners really want to know. Armed with a clear roadmap that will frame information from your listener’s perspective, you can create and deliver strong positive messages to help you better control conversations and enhance understanding.
