You only have to listen to a few words when Stephanie Bonte-Lebair speaks to know that she has a beautiful, highly trained voice – rich and resonant. She has created a system to share her secrets with other speakers and leaders. She produces immediate results! I asked Stephanie to speak to a seminar group and she was delightful, imparting a great deal of knowledge and expertise, using interactive techniques to hold our attention. She would be a great addition to any program.
