I’ve known Dr fLorence Cotel for over five years. fLorence has a razor-sharp intellect and a unique way of looking at things, she can see both the big picture and the granular detail. As a public speaking coach, fLorence was instrumental in helping me prepare the script and delivery of my TEDx talk. She taught me how to own my pauses and how best to engage an audience. As a writing buddy, fLorence made me see connections and pitfalls in the manuscript of my forthcoming memoir, that nobody else had pointed out and I continue to lean on her for her critical eye. fLorence is warm-hearted, generous and a joy to work with. I admire her focus and the way she always gives a 100% to any project she works on.
