Has anyone here worked with a voice or communication coach or used an app/program that genuinely improved your communication skills?

I’m specifically interested in:
• Clearer, more confident speaking
• Stronger executive presence
• Better conflict conversations
• Reducing filler words or nervous habits
• Structuring thoughts more effectively in real time

If you’ve had direct personal experience and saw meaningful improvement, I’d love to know what worked for you.

Microsoft PowerPoint’s speaker coach helped me a ton! It’s an AI bot that will listen to you practice your speech and give feedback (avoid filler words, don’t read the slide, slow your pace, etc). I’ve gotten lots of compliments on my public speaking ever since I started practicing with it.

Ha! I need the exact same coaching! I have been using chatGPT voice mode and LinkedIn Role Play to get practice and coaching. I don't expect I'll ever sound like an LLM, and the progress has been slow, but sure. I'm eager to try the PowerPoint coach next!

I am getting a good project in current company where there will be lot of learning
Initially it will be manual and then it will have automation testing. At the same time I have an offer in another company with good package but there won't be much learning compared to the current company project I am yet to get locked. Is learning important and priority for 4.5 years of experience? Or better to go with the high package offer? (Other company offer is from TCS). Your valuable comments would help.

Heyy people,

Couldn't attend this interview at PwC due to last minute technical difficulties. I requested HR to reschedule it. She said it's not possible this week and she'll try her best for the next week. I am really tensed, I don't want to throw away this opportunity. I was really looking forward for the interview. Would they really reschedule my interview?

31, $155 base, expenses 2300mo, 30k investment, only debt is 500k house. Is it too late? How far behind am I? If I throw all of my cash moving forward at investments and mortgage can I recover?

What house plants are NOT toxic to cats? I swear every time I go to buy a new plant and look it up it says “toxic to pets”. I have a dumb cane which I know is toxic but didn’t realize when I bought it so now I just keep it in the laundry room away from my cat when I’m at work but that means no daytime sunlight. Would like suggestions on which plants I can buy that are safe to leave alone with my cat 😸

For in-house counsel roles, does firm prestige matter? For example, would the fact that an applicant is from Sullivan & Cromwell vs, say, White & Case matter at all, or is it much more about experience/interview? Does it matter as much as law school credentials? Assuming a mid-level corporate associate seeking to go in-house.
