What People Are Saying About Rebecca Shambaugh

Marriott’s Women’s CEO Executive Forum was a tremendous success, and that is due in large part to Rebecca Shambaugh. When organizing an event for CEOs and executive directors of major associations, ensuring high ROI is critical. The content Rebecca delivered coupled with her knowledge, experience and expertise was a home run. We could not have executed this without her. — Sales Executive, Marriott International

The Women’s Investment Group of the CFA Society of Washington, DC, was thrilled to have Rebecca be our keynote and speak about the importance of “executive presence” in the workplace. We were inspired by her insights and ideas, and learned of tangible and practical ways to develop personal and professional presence. Rebeca’s best seller book, Make Room For Her is a must-read and hearing Rebecca speak is a must-do! — Founder, CFAW Women’s Investment Network

It is always inspiring to hear from Rebecca Shambaugh, an influential, powerful women leader. I was particularly intrigued by the interactive exercises used within the presentation to promote self-awareness and personal branding. Rebecca’s engaging approach, personal stories, and exercises shared were incredibly helpful in identifying my own personal strengths in the workplace which can be leveraged within my company for obtaining additional responsibilities in my current role. I hope to attend other presentations of Rebecca in the future. — Forté Foundation
