Testimonials

I brought Richard in to teach my entire teams at Pfizer, Johnson &Johnson, and Energizer. His class was the most practical, useful, and immediately applicable learning experience we’ve ever had.
Douglas Sweetbaum, Director of Marketing, Energizer
I found Richard Pinsky’s writing class so useful when I attended that I brought him back to teach my entire staff. Like me, both my veteran writers and my newcomers found it an invaluable experience. I highly recommend it.
Gary Lachow, Director of Communications, Merck & Co.
At first we were skeptical about teaching better writing skills to communications professionals. But Richard's approach made sense. We tried it and never looked back. His process really does work. Participants from our Grey Group and Hill & Knowlton companies have been highly satisfied.
Rick Zwern, Worldwide Director of Executive Development, WPP
Richard Pinsky knows the subject well and, more important, he can teach it.
Manager, Commercial Engineering, Warner-Lambert
I sent one of our top attorneys for one-to-one coaching with Richard Pinsky. I saw remarkable improvement in clarity and speed almost immediately. Highly impressive.
Betty H., SVP, Fortune 500 Company
The results can absolutely be seen by the end of class.
Senior Finance Manager, Pfizer
I learned more in this class than in a six week seminar at ******* College.
Director of Job Development, Drake Beam Morin
I consider this the best class I have ever attended. The program objectives were right in line with my needs. Richard was excellent.
Market Research Manager, Novartis
Richard Pinsky's writing workshop is an excellent program. He makes adult learning fun and easy to grasp. Participants loved it and you will too. Highly recommended.

Inspiring. An eye-opener.
Manager of Human Resources, Avon Products
Richard was honest, funny, helpful, and entirely approachable. I loved his class. Everyone should attend.
Investment Banker, Major Wall Street Investment Bank
The class should be required of all advisory VPs. It was excellent!
Investment Banker, Major Wall Street Investment Bank
Richard is an extraordinary teacher and great fun to be with. The class flew by while I learned so much.
Sr. Executive Officer, Lloyds Bank International
He gave me tremendous confidence. I feel I can now write anything.
Administrative Assistant, The Children’s Television Workshop
During the lunch break I was already using what I’d just learned in class. Remarkable.
Investment Banker, Major Wall Street Investment Bank
It was the most succinct and useful course I have ever attended. After class I was able to write in ten minutes what I’d been struggling with for a week. A quality presentation.
Senior Auditor, Pfizer
