“ We wanted a fresh, new angle on networking, which is an essential part of our work in consulting and expert services. Success in working life increasingly relies on networks, and starting conversations is a critical part of our roles. Networking is also a major factor in performing well in the work itself and ensures the work flows smoothly.
Our goal was to strengthen our team's business capability and lower the threshold for meeting people. Laura succeeded brilliantly in this. She gave our younger staff a fresh, relatable messenger who made the topic genuinely engaging.
The keynote and training content was highly relevant and practical. We particularly valued that:
- Relaxed, smooth pace: the session moved at the right tempo, and everyone got practical tips through real examples.
- Active participation: pre-assignments and group work activated participants to think more deeply about the topic and share thoughts with each other.
- The threshold dropped: Laura offered concrete “building blocks” and tools that made it noticeably easier to take action yourself.
I warmly recommend Laura to organizations that want to make networking a genuine, value-creating, and human resource. ”
“ We invited Laura to speak at our summer employees' kick-off days. We wanted a keynote on the importance of networking and tips that would help our summer hires get the most out of networking with each other and with people in interesting roles inside the company.
Laura met our expectations: she first delivered a 45-minute keynote covering networking generally, encouraged everyone to do it in their own style, and shared brilliant, genuinely practical examples. As a second part, Laura ran a 45-minute workshop where participants got to practice these skills together in a relaxed setting.
We received really positive feedback from participants on Laura's keynote and workshop, and we could absolutely book a similar session again. ”
“ The presentation was a standout - insightful, relatable, and incredibly well delivered. Laura brought so much practical knowledge to the table, and the way she presented it made the content not just informative, but actionable. We walked away with several tips we are excited to implement. ”
“ Big thanks for being part of the Auroras seminar! Your keynote was really good, set the stage for the whole event, and led the audience nicely into the topic.
We were also pleased with how the different keynotes complemented each other — so thank you also for collaborating on the preparation with the other speakers. You had great energy and brought a warm yet relaxed atmosphere right at the start of the seminar, which is exactly what we aim for in our events.
You're easy to approach, reliable on content and timing, and the practical arrangements went smoothly. It was really nice that you stayed for the whole event — it created a sense of presence and showed appreciation for the audience.
The talk itself was clear, easy to follow, and met our expectations. You brought out well what networking means in the Finnish working life context, with tips and practices that are easy to take on board. The keynote helped people understand what it's about, why networking matters, and how to easily get started. We especially liked that you highlighted networking as building human relationships, not rocket science. You clearly got the audience excited about the topic. ”
“ A warm recommendation — an impactful and clear start for the network! Laura facilitated the first meeting of HR Klubi Häme with an excellent touch — warm and professional. She helped us build a clear direction and ground rules for the network and gave us concrete ways to put it to work in our everyday lives.
The assignment exceeded expectations! The keynote and workshop were inspiring, practical, and sparked many insights. We had a successful, motivating morning that left a great feeling and a clear way forward. ”
“ Laura approaches networking in a wonderfully human and inspiring way, sharing real-life stories and putting herself on the line, too. Vivid, relevant examples and Laura's own personality colored the lecture, making it relevant, interesting, and genuinely value-adding. The room was almost pin-drop silent — that's how captivating Laura was about her topic. The lecture peaked with an approachable exercise that surely left everyone thinking, “I can do this too!”
Warm thanks, Laura! ”
“ From my perspective the keynote was clearly structured and brought networking to an approachable level from a useful angle for this target group. Personal experiences nicely brought the content to life and made it concrete. The keynote also offered useful tips and conversation starters that help get started with networking. ”
“ Laura's presentation skills were of professional caliber — clear voice and slides; she was able to create a pleasant atmosphere in the room while commanding the audience's attention. The topic was interesting, timely for our company, and explored at just the right depth. Laura's examples and practical tips were found to be very useful. A short Q&A at the end was enough to answer the questions that came up in the audience. ”
“ At my invitation, Laura gave a keynote in Tallinn in November 2024 to over 60 professionals in the arts, culture, and creative fields on the importance of networking. Laura's keynote was well-structured and just the right size for our target group, which consisted of participants from Finland, Estonia, and Latvia. The keynote provided practical support for networking both for seasoned veterans and for those who are only now daring to network.
The biggest takeaway was that Laura's keynote highlighted networking as a key tool on the way toward a dream career. Laura's inspiring personality and strong stage presence also made an impression on the audience. ”
“ Laura Lindsberg was the keynote speaker at the Find Your Future career and recruitment fair organized by Turku University of Applied Sciences in November 2025. The event was aimed at all Turku UAS students. Laura's keynote brought a practical and expert perspective on the importance of networking in career development.
The keynote also offered concrete tips and insights that help students build their future careers boldly and with intent. The content was exactly what we hoped for: practical, inspiring, and tailored to the students' needs.
Working with Laura was easy and smooth from start to finish. Her professionalism and ability to connect with an audience make her an excellent speaker for events like this. We warmly recommend her. ”
“ We had the pleasure of welcoming Laura Lindsberg as a keynote speaker at our Career Event, organised by the Henley Business School Nordics Alumni Board for experienced leaders and executives. The audience consisted of professionals reflecting on their next career steps and leadership development.
Laura's session on networking was a strong fit for this audience. Drawing on her expertise and her book Verkostoitumisen taito (The Art of Networking), she offered a perspective that was both thoughtful and accessible. What stood out was her ability to reframe networking as a genuinely human practice, relevant also for experienced professionals who may have developed established ways of approaching it over time.
The session struck exactly the right balance for a leadership audience: substantive enough to offer real insight, and grounded enough to prompt reflection on day-to-day practice. We received positive feedback from participants, who appreciated the clarity and relatability of Laura's examples, as well as the practical lens she brought to the topic. ”
“ Laura came to give a talk and a workshop for our summer employees for the second year running. We chose Laura again because she has a talent for creating exactly the right kind of relaxed and encouraging atmosphere. Her practical tips immediately lowered the barrier to getting to know others, which helped us reach our goal of connecting young people coming from different locations. Once again, we received excellent feedback from the participants! ”
“ All in all, we liked Laura's talk and the networking session she facilitated very much. During the evening we also received numerous complimentary comments from the event participants. We liked the way the networking part was facilitated, with new acquaintances introducing each other to a new pair. As a personality, Laura managed to carry the audience along, both as listeners and while they were doing the exercise. We warmly recommend Laura for events where you want to remind people of the skills and the importance of networking, and to get participants to get to know each other with a low threshold. ”
“ Laura Lindsberg, it was wonderful to have you – a perfect match. And how this thing, networking, works as an inspiration for everything. We would be nowhere without each other, without conversations and people to reflect ourselves against. Hopefully we will get back to the topic again soon. Thank you for diving deep into this subject for the rest of us to enjoy, and for serving it up in such an inspiring package! ”
