To say I'm impressed with Vicki and her work would be an understatement. Her book, Instant Appeal could very well become a classic in terms of truly,truly understanding why human beings act the way we do. It was absolutely brilliant! More than that, Vicki is an individual who embodies the words, "character" and "class." I would recommend her to any organization desiring to improve productivity and provide their team members with the tools and skills to make that happen."

Not a single week goes by when I don't reach for her book, Instant Appeal, to glean tips and in-depth insights to improve my business. She's one of the smartest people I know. There is no doubt about it; Vicki Kunkel is at the top of my “Great Thinkers” list. Highly recommended!"

Vicki is an excellent consultant and communicator. When I needed an update to improve our media relations training and strategy (at Nalco), she drew on her strong experience in both learning and as a former broadcast journalist to help provide the structure and content to create a valuable learning resource. And she taught me a lot about good presentation skills in the bargain.

"Vicki Kunkel is one of the few former television news broadcasters to successfully utilize her journalism skills in a beneficial, meaningful, and educational "new media" capacity. Her success with developing and implementing eLearning programs is just one example of her wide-ranging storytelling skills. Most importantly, Vicki has always been a terrific means of support and inspiration for others (like me) trying to emulate her impressive career trajectory."
