Executive Training
What distinguishes successful and respected leaders? Authentic connection that comes from credible communications.
This comes from three main pillars:
- establishing your personal credibility
- understanding and empathizing with your audience, and
- getting the relevant facts right.
Information is giving out.
Communication is getting through.
Our programs go beyond basic presentations skills training or so-called “pitch coaching.” Leaders will learn how to:
- Find and develop your authentic voice
- Make your case: from informing to persuading to motivating
- Tune-in to yourself and your audience: making the connection
- Implement theories of persuasion in practical settings
Leadership Coaching
Leveraging coaching methodologies, I work one-on-one with leaders to uncover barriers to effective communications and develop my clients’ authentic voices. In customized and confidential sessions, either in person or over videoconferencing, I partner with clients to help them level up their persuasive techniques, executive presence, and leadership communication style.
Facilitation | Team Messaging Labs
We facilitate strategic messaging sessions to help teams develop compelling organizational stories.
These stories are the foundations of corporate pitch decks and the compass for navigating high-stakes internal and external communications.
A mountain of facts and data points neither inspires nor resonates. Very often, organizational leaders have been repeatedly telling the same tired list of facts to a weary audience. When it doesn’t work, they figure perhaps if they were just louder, or reached more people. In defeat, they blame the audience for “not getting it.”
Through our [re]frame process, we help leaders craft messages into a story that connects the dots and generates a meaningful narrative.
In this inclusive process, we listen to a variety of viewpoints, from customers to people at different levels of the organization. We facilitate conversations among teams, helping them cultivate and craft stories that inform, persuade and motivate.
