Lynn Cochrane, founder and president of Express Communications, has been successfully addressing communications issues and problems for her corporate clients for the past twenty years. Her degree from the University of Wisconsin in Communicative Disorders, a background in radio advertising and her years in education are the key ingredients in shaping today's unique Express Communications philosophy.

Founded in 1982, the Minneapolis-based Company initially offered simply a basic speaker training program to a handful of local clients. Now, the company has a long list of highly visible national clients in many sectors of American corporate life: the financial arena, professional sports, the food and retail industries, and the media, to name a few.

Currently, Express Communications is structured to provide clients with three types of communications services: Small group seminars, personal coaching and keynote speeches.

Small group seminars are conducted by a select group of highly trained instructors. They provide client companies with high quality, results oriented seminars in all areas of verbal communications (see training programs). Each seminar is customized to meet the needs of specific companies and then personalized to meet the needs of individual participants.

Personal Coaching has become very attractive in preparing business leaders for such important, high impact presentations and appearances as shareholder meetings, "state of the company" speeches, roadshows, important sales "pitches" and media appearances. Tight time schedules and the need for confidentiality and personal attention have played key roles in spawning this demand for personal coaching.

Requests for Keynote Speeches has increased as Express Communications' visibility has grown. Lynn Cochrane's personal energy and enthusiasm and her industry knowledge have made her popular with audiences from coast to coast for keynote addresses, training presentations and customized speeches.

Express Communications has grown dramatically over the past twenty years. Yet, it has remained consistently faithful to the founding principles and values that have fostered its development: training and coaching that focuses on tangible and measurable results, a commitment to small training groups and customized training programs.
