SARA'S CLIENTS HAVE SEEN THE RESULTS FIRSTHAND:
“Sara is a tremendous asset to our company. She learned the culture and value of our company and models her services as if she were on our executive staff. She provides well rounded services including career coaching, business consulting, and leadership training. Her style is a great balance between the science and passion of leadership where she understands the diversity of management and bridges those differences with productive and insightful training and coaching. Her well rounded career offers 'real life' scenarios that take the ethereal training into practical and useful terms. Sara is an invaluable part of our team to ensure we are focusing on the right goals with the right people. I would highly recommend her services to any company of any size!”
Lisa Hannusch
CEO, Unimed Direct
"We have invited Sara Canaday to deliver Professional Presence presentations. She received very positive feedback and the group was genuinely interested in the research that she provided. She grabbed their attention immediately and was able to involve the audience. We received glowing feedback and would like Sara to continue to share her message with others in our firm."
Nichelle (Taylor) McLemore, Senior Manager
Deloitte Consulting LLP
“Sara is an engaging, knowledgeable speaker. She is witty and disarming, forming an almost immediate rapport with her audience. The information she presents on leadership qualities, professional presence, and non-verbal communication are both timely and classic. I never pass up an opportunity to work with Sara, or to seek her advice.”
Julia Kennedy Jayes
Writer & Marketing Consultant
“I have had the pleasure of hearing Sara Canaday conduct group presentations on several occasions. Her speaking style has always been energetic, informative, sincere, and relevant to her specific audience. The audience finds Sara interesting and credible, so they pay attention to what she has to say. In fact, they have been eager to learn more about Leadership and Executive Presence and were anxious to share their new success stories. They are still talking about the presentation two weeks later and there are marked improvements in the executive presence of the team members on my team. If you are interested in a high-impact presentation with life-long benefits, I would highly recommend Sara!”

“Sara’s presentation to the Hispanic Leadership class of 2008-2009 was a critical component to our opening retreat. Her presentation set the tone for the entire year: Leadership. Our goal is to provide tools to the class that will enable them to be leaders in Central Texas. In order to accomplish this goal, a primer in “Leadership Presence” was an essential building block in the process. Sara’s presentation provided valuable information and her use of behavioral science helped solidify the importance of first impressions and non-verbally communication. The class buzzed about this presentation the rest of the day and through the following week.”
Myndi Garrett
Hispanic Chamber of Commerce
“I am a new manager and in addition to assisting me with my professional image, Sara gave me expert advice on how to improve my management skills and recommended several excellent resources that have made a difference in my day-to-day work. I was so impressed with Sara’s service that I have set aside money in my professional development budget for the rest of my team to work with her.”

We had one of the best turnouts of the history of our Professional Events and that is always due many factors but mainly because we have a fabulous speaker with an interesting topic.
Everyone was excited with your presentation and it attracted a lot of attention. We appreciate your time and energy. Mil Gracias!"
