“I have met many speakers who have been inspired by what I call “The Norma Factor” — her authentic desire to help others coupled with her deep wisdom and knowledge of the speaking business. Norma’s positive impact on numerous speakers makes her a valuable resource to the industry.”
--Les Brown, The Motivator

 

“What I have experienced through meeting with the Norma Hollis team has been incredible. Growth, joy and the freedom to choose who I am and who I want to become in this world is so important to me that I have an unquenchable passion to share this with others. Through the team’s guidance, they have created the means for me to realize the gift that I have to give to others - although, I thought I knew what it was, they are enabling me to gain the focus and clarity that I need to take this to a higher level. My life experiences and successful corporate background were wonderful foundations; however I needed to expand my horizons and inspire others to live their most fulfilling lives.”

“Thanks to Norma Hollis, I am experiencing an un precedented level of success as a result of my appearance on The Apprentice. I knew I had momentum and a chance to maximize my ‘celebrity’ status, but I didn’t know how to do it. I turned to Norma for coaching and direction. Norma helped me in numerous ways and ultimately, was a guiding light to my speaking career. She not only provided excellent advice about creating a successful s peaking platform, she made sure that my ‘authentic’ voice was evident in my presentations. By utilizing the concepts of authenticity that Norma taught me, I have been able to share the ‘real’ Omarosa with the world and experience ongoing success as a professional s peaker. Norma helped me turn 15 minutes of fame into a s peaking empire!"
