I have also learned the effective use of humor, the art of improv, and for me personally and most importantly, the Strategic use of Storytelling to make your message “Memorable.” 

Patricia Diorio, M.S., Transformational Speaker

“If I could concisely express the greatest gifts that Chris Nielson has given me, I would say that he helped me open my heart, connect it with my head, and through the charisma of the funny girl powerfully bring home my message.”

 

 

Dr. Katherine Macey, Ph.D.

“Chris is not only an entertaining speaker; he approaches his topics with a depth of understanding that is refreshing. His insights are always right on point. I’ve always been able to take away actionable steps that make a difference whenever I’ve heard him speak. Highly recommended.”

Annie Rettic, Professional Musician and Storyteller

“I know that I’m growing both as a speaker and as a person since joining Speaker Skills Plus. I’m especially grateful to Chis for believing in me when I didn’t believe in myself, and for never giving up on me! If you join Speaker Skills Plus, he’ll do the same for you. That’s just who he is, as a coach and a human being.

If you’re a speaker, author or anyone with a mission to bring your unique message to the world with greater clarity and impact, I highly and wholeheartedly recommend Chris Nielson’s Speaker Skills Plus!”

Vanessa Elle Wilde, Comedienne, Podcast Host and Speaker

“Chris is masterful at developing talent and amplifying creativity in speakers.

Chris’ approach is truly innovative and will help you become the best speaker you can be. ” 

Jackie Gray, Transformational Speaker, Abuse Survivor, Advocate Singer/Songwriter

“One of Chris’ mottoes is “dare to be bad, so you can become great.” In each and every session, he cultivates a space of fun, acceptance and non-judgement, so no matter where each speaker is at on their journey, they feel validated and encouraged.

If there were a key to unlocking speaking potential in anyone inspired to become a speaker, Chris possesses such a key. He is constantly calling out what I do well and helping me become even better.”

 

 

Sarah Root, Transformational Healing Facilitator

Chris brings a powerful and loving energy to his coaching. He is especially gifted at asking powerful questions and helping people visualize inspiring new ways of being. There is an amazing transformative force behind his voice and his words. He is deeply intuitive and follows the client wherever s/he leads, with great presence. I brought some very tough old patterns to Chris, and was delighted at the end of eight weeks to have experienced huge breakthroughs. These are some of the biggest breakthroughs in my long life filled with a lot of counseling and coaching! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Pamela Gort, Speaker, Author & Lesbian Love Coach

Chris treats his class as if we are gemstones who can shine even brighter after some polishing with his skills training.  The skills training calls are like a party with friends who want you to grow and feel accepted.
