RECENT CLIENTS
This two-day training—the first program of its kind for the company—was designed to strengthen the delivery skills of consultants and sales representatives while preserving their individual presentation styles. In addition to leading the training, Lena contributed to the development of high-impact state hearing and sales presentations across Literacy, Math, Social Studies, and Science campaigns. She also led multiple competitive analysis teams, helping to refine and sharpen HMH’s sales message in highly competitive markets.
Most recently, Lena collaborated closely with the management team at Great Minds to design and lead immersive three-day Presentation Boot Camps for consultants and sales representatives. These intensive sessions were created to prepare teams for the highly competitive education campaigns in Texas and California, equipping participants with the confidence, clarity, and delivery skills needed to stand out in high-stakes presentations.
Lena developed an online presentation training program for sales representatives and customer success managers, grounded in research-based strategies and practical presentation techniques. The program was designed to strengthen virtual presentation skills and foster more authentic connections with educators. Participants were required to deliver an initial presentation, receive individualized coaching, and present a second time to earn certification to present Age of Learning programs.

“You are AMAZING. You’ve been so impactful to our team. Steven and I presented today and it went SO WELL. All thanks to you. I shared our conversation in the screenshot attached. We couldn’t do this work without you”.
-Becca, Manager
“First, let me thank you for such an excellent experience this week! And... I'm intentionally using the word EXPERIENCE as this week was way more than a "training" or "workshop". You created a unique experience that was enjoyable, packed with just the right amount of information, productive struggle and dare I say ... career altering advice and knowledge. I hope we can keep in touch and I will constantly ask myself WWLD (what would Lena do or say)!”
-Wendy, Consultant
“My presentation went well. I'm incredibly grateful for all the strategies you shared. I felt my introduction, body, and conclusion were all improved after your session”.
-Steven, National Consultant
“That was probably the most beneficial training I’ve ever participated in. I learned so much in such a short time. Thank you for setting that up for us! Lena’s feedback was amazing. And so was the feedback from the group - I feel so grateful to be a part of this team”.
-Paul, Consultant
