Speaking & Communication Coaching for Businesses
Is your team preparing for a crucial pitch or fundraising round, but you’re concerned about coming across with authenticity and confidence? Or perhaps your team presents regularly - whether in high-stakes client meetings, or in front of a judge - and you want to equip them with a strong foundation while giving access to ongoing coaching and support. Maybe there are challenges around handling interruptions, people management scenarios, or unexpected questions.
Speaking coaching and workshops offer an opportunity to align everyone on what effective spoken communication looks and sounds like. Individuals will overcome personal inhibitors (becoming free and natural), build strong technical skills for clarity, and understand how to integrate both these elements together. As a result, the message feels genuine and engaging.
All services (apart from large group seminars) are centered around individualized coaching. This approach, tailored to each person, is the most valuable element of what’s being offered; guided, experiential learning is consistently the most effective way to make real progress. Each participant receives customized guidance and targeted exercises based on initial observations, and their specific needs.
-
Each workshop lasts 3 hours, contains a presentation and group warm-up, followed by rotating individualized coaching for the majority of the session. Constructive feedback from the group is facilitated, with participants observing and learning from each other being a key part of the process.

This workshop series is designed to lay a stable foundation by aligning the team around a shared mindset for speaking and communication. It also serves as a strong starting point for ongoing coaching for the team.
