Ronna Lichtenberg

Ronna Lichtenberg has an international reputation for her ability to help others learn how to pitch. She has had a successful corporate career, founded, and continues to run, a dynamic management consulting firm, is a sought after contributor to magazines like “O”, the Oprah Magazine, and offers her expert opinions on network morning television, including The Today Show, Good Morning America and The Early Show.

After a decade of helping companies improve their results, Ronna is ready to help a limited number of individuals, who are determined, to make a positive change in their lives, through this special offer.

Ronna had to learn how to pitch in order to survive and thrive. After graduating from college, Ronna, a shy Midwesterner, found herself the family breadwinner, putting her then husband through law school. Life kept putting her in situations, including a bout of cancer, where her well being, and those of the people she most cared about, depended upon her ability to ask for what she wanted, and needed, effectively. She knows what it feels like to be scared, lack confidence, and have that post-conversation “ouch” feeling.

No longer obviously shy (but still a Midwesterner at heart), Ronna has published three books, including “Pitch Like a Girl: How a Woman can be herself and still succeed.
