I've just taken the Leadership X-Factor scorecard and it's really given me some insights. It confirmed some things I had nagging doubts about and has made me move to take action to address these shortcomings. It also made me more aware of my strengths and where I can make better use of them. 

What I especially love is that I didn't just get a score. The report broke down some helpful tips I could use to improve and even led me to some video training from Nicole. Super useful!

I recommend anyone looking to improve how they communicate in public and in their personal life to take this scorecard to gain the insights to make improvements!

With only a few minutes into our conversation, Nicole had understood the deep-down issues that I had when it came to communication. She not only identified the root cause but came up with immediate, personalised and actionable steps. I sincerely feel that several years of struggle can be cut down if one can work closely with her. If you want to become an empowered communicator, Nicole Schmitz is your go-to person. I highly recommend getting to know where you stand from the empowered communicator scorecard before discussing with her.
