Your leaders aren’t getting buy in from teams, vendors, or leadership.On their vision.On adopting procedures or protocols.Or for their programs.Because they’re delivering informational data dump presentations in monotone.So relevant parties don’t change behavior or take action.Because they don’t know what to think, feel, or do.Or why they should care.Or how this will improve their lives.Most leadership communication fails for one of three reasons:1) Informational or IrrelevantStatus updates without purpose, no audience benefit, no call to action.2) Messy MessagingThe message is muddy, long-winded, or boring.3) Disconnected DeliveryThe message is important but the delivery undermines it.Shifting weightHappy feetPacing franticallyRamblingFiller words (ums uhs)MonotoneGesture below waistT-Rex (arms glued to sides)Fidget with fingersUltimately, leaders aren't inspiring confidence and trust because they’re not communicating with clarity, confidence, and executive presence.I transform new leaders from anxious speakers into confident communicators.After taking my Electric Presentations program they’ll learn how to:⚡️ Engage audiences by turning foggy ideas into crisp messages organized for influence.⚡️ Persuade audiences by turning dry lectures into engaging performances using compelling storytelling.⚡️Inspire audiences by turning nervous energy into exhibiting leadership presence.I’ll do this by coaching on: 🖊 How to craft clear, concise, and compelling messages by applying 27 years of public relations experience preparing CEOs for reporter interviews, crafting company messaging platforms, and pitching stories to reporters. 🎤 How to deliver those messages confidently with purpose by applying 22 years of acting experience.

When I joined this global communication skills training provider, it had limited awareness among its target audience of HR and talent development professionals. The primary goal was to speak at two key industry trade shows: the ATD International Conference & Expo and SHRM Annual Conference. When we first started, my client had a good message, but didn't have the resume to present at these high profile events.As PR director, I implemented a thought leadership B2B PR campaign. I identified every ATD and SHRM chapter across the nation. I crafted a compelling abstract with the COO and submitted it to each chapter. After every speaking engagement, we captured audience testimonials and secured letters of recommendation from chapter presidents. We recorded video and created a compelling trailer to complete our speaker’s kit.Local chapter presentations lead to larger single-day conference presentations and eventually ATD and SHRM annual conference sessions. This year, my client presented a mega session for SHRM reaching almost 1,000 HR professionals.I also conducted media relations outreach focused on vertical trade and national business placements. I wrote byline articles and secured placements in key industry trades. I drafted a monthly blog and boosted the client’s social media presence. And I wrote compelling award submissions.🎯Secured SHRM Annual Conference (2017-2019) & ATD International Conference & Expo (2014-2019) speaking engagements🎯Secured forbes.com posts, vertical trade placements, and targeted podcast interviews.🎯A byline I ghostwrote was among the Top 10 most read articles in 2018 for TrainingIndustry.com.🎯A client was reminded he wanted to work with us because of the "Viola Davis’ Award-Winning Oscar Speech" blog post I wrote.🎯American Business Awards 2017, World Human Resources Development Congress Award, Innovation in Learning: 2011-2013, 2015-2019.
