“Jocelyn Giangrande is a phenomenal speaker and knowledgeable consultant. I hired Jocelyn as a speaker when I was the chapter president for the Detroit Chapter of the Public Relations Society of America to speak on the topic of Generational Diversity at our first annual Ofield Dukes Diversity Summit. Jocelyn and her presentation was one of the highlights of the day, with our conference attendees rating her presentation at the highest score of “Excellent.” I would highly recommend her for any conference, seminar or business consultation. You won’t be disappointed!” -Jennifer Flowers, President Detroit Chapter, Public Relations Society of America

“Jocelyn served as our keynote speaker for the NAAAHR Greater Detroit Networking & Recruitment Event. She delivered a topic that empowered and rejuvenated not only her targeted female audience, she also inspired the male audience members to redefine how to network with partners. Her speaking engagements are always well attended and she is definitely in demand. Jocelyn is a phenomenal speaker who gracefully integrates humor and sincerity with the critical skill of being a subject matter expert!”- Rodney Bellamy-Chapter President, NAAAHR of Greater Detroit.

“Learning about Jocelyn Giangrande was one of the best referrals I have ever received. I attended one of her sessions and immediately invited her to develop a workshop for the CEW program schedule. She usually conducts 2 sessions for us each year because she has now been snapped up by other Univ of Michigan units. Her presentations are informative, highly energetic and always full. I highly recommend Jocelyn as both a keynote speaker and a workshop presenter.” -Janice Reuben, Senior Associate for Programs & Outreach at Univ. Michigan Center for the Education of Women

“Thank you for a terrific workshop. Really, without paying attention to all the non-verbal clues you talked about, you can never really get to the core of your presentation or get people to take you very seriously.  I thought what you highlighted about non-verbal signals was excellent.”
