One of our favourite things is hearing from our members about how our program has helped them build their speaking confidence and achieve an important professional or personal speaking milestone, like being more vocal at work or delivering a big presentation.
That’s why, we created our Speaker Spotlight Series. To celebrate members who’ve participated in our training and have gone on to reach a speaking goal that – at one point, – felt virtually impossible due to the intense feelings of nervousness and anxiety they experienced while speaking.
Today’s Speaker Spotlight celebrates Sally Erickson💪🏼.

What do you do for work?
I’m a technical writer at Microsoft. So I write online articles that help people use Power Apps.
Why is having strong communication skills so important in your role?
How has Speak for Success helped you improve?
What advice do you have for people just starting to work on their communication skills?
I have two pieces of advice. The first one is to practice! Practice always makes you better. It’s a guaranteed way to get better.
And the second one is I’d encourage you to try something new. Like I said, I was a severe introvert, so talking to people has actually helped me get better.
