Au cours de ma carrière d'Attachée de Presse, le Ministère des Affaires Etrangères m'a confié, pendant 42 ans, des postes dans les Consulats et Ambassades de France à travers le monde. Dans le cadre des missions qui m'étaient imparties, j'ai très souvent eu à exposer, expliquer, et parfois défendre, la politique de la France auprès des media des pays dans lesquels j'étais affectée. Or, parler en public était pour moi, loin d'être un exercice qui me plaisait mais que j'associais davantage à une pure torture sociale. Et ce plus encore lorsqu'il a fallu, à deux instances, que je parle de moi. Lorsque j'ai rencontré David Nemitz, j'ai été éblouie par son éloquence, par son aisance à s'adresser à un public, à faire face à une salle comble sans jamais avoir la moindre trace d'anxiété dans la voix, et par son don de pouvoir la faire vibrer et vivre par ses paroles. Grace à David, j'ai maintenant réussi, moi aussi, à surmonter ce "trac" intense, en particulier lorsque que l'on m'a remis les insignes de Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur et que j'ai du prononcer un discours d'acceptation. Merci David.–Laurence Oxenberg, French Ministry of Foreign Affairs

When David Nemitz served as our Master of Ceremonies, he was gracious and generous with his time and expertise. His warm hearted welcome and introductions got the conference started on the right foot.–Carlos M Ferrario, MD, FAHA, FASA, FASH, FACC, Consortium Southeastern Hypertension Control

David Nemitz has individually coached me to improve interview and presentation skills. As an interview is a high stakes presentation, David’s coaching prepared me to respond, not react to tough questions. First he learned about my capabilities and objectives, and then he turned my concerns into powerful talking points. David’s coaching definitely worked. His advice on physical appearance, talking points and pre prepared answers helped achieve the expected results. I would highly recommend David Nemitz to someone who would like to improve their interview and presentation skills. –David Cepeda, Sony Latin America, Inc

As a leading Sales & Marketing Strategist,I have the honor to share the stage with many accomplished presenters throughout the country. David Nemitz’s assistance is fast, efficient and significant.

I endorse Mr. David Nemitz as a professional speaking coach and orator. Prior to a fiscal and budgetary appearance to support continued governmental funding, I had the unique opportunity to be the beneficiary of public speaking presentation guidance from Mr.Nemitz. As a result from Mr. Nemitz's mentorship and constructive feedback over a 72 hour period before this appearance, i was able to improve the organization of my presentation for a more clear and concise message. This greatly aided the overall success of the presentation's selling points and averted the delivery of a career limiting presentation. The successful end result was a presentation with an appropriate message that garnered continued financial support from the Congressional level. I am grateful to Mr.Nemitz for showing and cultivating the strengths of my public speaking for an efficient and effective presentation. Mr. Nemitz has my highest endorsement as a speaking professional and gifted orator.–W.L. Carmichael, U.S. Department of Homeland Security United States Coast Guard

When we search for the truth outside of ourselves, it remains elusive. David Nemitz is a gifted speaker with a knack for sparking conscious conversations and igniting real, personal insights. Upon each encounter and listening experience with David, I evolve in fresh, new, powerful ways, and I am led back to my own truth time and time again. Empowerment and enlightenment are inside jobs, and I consider David a true friend "on the inside."–Robert Mack, Author of Happiness from the Inside Out

Among the many skills a self-respected physician aspires to master is the ability to contribute to his field, excel among his peers, and to develop a deep enough rapport with patients that your medical decisions are followed. The ability to sharpen these skills was my goal prior to being coached by David. With his counsel I've done many successful presentations to my peers and superiors. I have had a better relationship with my patients because my ability to communicate with them has dramatically improved. David's influence in my professional career has been pivotal to my success.–Hector Miranda, M.D.

David Nemitz is a dynamic and determined presenter. When I asked for his assistance in changing our division’s paradigm of time he responded by designing and delivering ten unique speeches in seven days. As far as I know he broke the world record for completing the Competent Communicator manual and inspired hundreds to pursue their goals. Beyond his drive to achieve, he truly helps others see and believe in the power of their own voice. I recommend being a member of his audience as often as possible.–Jason Smith, Past Division E Governor Toastmasters International

With students his knack for finding and developing confidence and competence is inspiring. He is a welcome guest anytime on our campus.–Theo Karantsalis, Miami-Dade Community College

Going beyond the basic capacity to encourage and motivate, David has the unique ability to call on those he works with to reach within themselves to find their voice and to help them deliver their message to the world in their own unique way. David inspires and empowers!–Lisa Foose

I sat in the rear of a Toastmasters meeting that David Nemitz held at The Miami Beach Botanical Gardens. I knew little about the organization, but wanted to know more. I listened and watched others apply techniques needed to improve public speaking. I did not know at the time that I would be called upon to address an audience at The Women's Center at Arlington National Cemetery. And, a few month later I was elected as Chair of the Miami Dade Chapter of SCORE, and I have to speak before many groups to promote our programs and the work of our chapter. Next month I will address a group of students and alumnae at a women's conference at Harvard Business School. That one session provided me with techniques that have made public speaking fun for me, and I have received accolades from audiences. –Marj Weber Chair, Score Chapter 29

David Nemitz is a dynamic personality whose ability to capture and inspire audiences is unmatched. Beyond mere presenting, he engages listeners in the living experience of his message. A pied piper of the highest order, David Nemitz energetically guides his audiences on epic journeys and delivers on the promise of the extraordinary.–Jack K. Barnes, Vitas

I remember the first time I read Speech Smarts. It affected me in a very powerful way. I still recall the words that created an epiphany for me, "The real meaning of your communication comes from the response you get, regardless of your intention." I carry that lesson with me everyday in my interactions with family and friends and especially when I'm delivering a speech. I seem to find a golden nugget or two each week that I can apply to not only my speeches, but to my life. The lessons I've learned from Speech Smarts have given me a great deal of self-awareness and an abundance of self-reflection. I'm truly grateful to you, David Nemitz. I feel like reading Speech Smarts has made me a better person.–Shannon w. Chamberlain, Onboard Media
