You can’t be a great leader without being a great communicator
Leadership requires you to inspire. To motivate. To connect.
I work with a wide range of leaders, including general managers, CEOs and board directors, to help them improve communication skills such as:
- public speaking and presenting
- communicating to different audiences, including their staff, the public and the board
- writing for a wide range of mediums, from email to social media
- dealing with the media
- using rhetorical techniques to become more persuasive and influential
- listening
- giving and receiving feedback
- motivating staff.
No one was born with all of these skills – but you can develop them.
I also help executives overcome their fear of public speaking, which is an area I have a lot of experience and interest in.
Executive training that’s discreet and confidential
It’s common for my clients to workshop upcoming speeches, proposals or articles they’re working on – and as such, I often look at confidential material. I can guarantee that everything I look at remains confidential and am also happy to sign non-disclosure agreements.
This privacy also extends to my clients themselves: I never reveal their names or anything that is discussed in our sessions with anyone. In other words, whatever issues or problems you’re working on will remain completely private, allowing you to openly discuss your needs and areas that can be developed.
About the trainer
I’m a former Sydney Morning Herald editor who helps executives across a wide range of industries and fields to improve the way they communicate.
My early career in journalism ingrained in me the importance of understanding your audience, as well communicating clearly and in plain English.
When I left journalism, I began focusing on verbal communication – from learning how to make speeches persuasive to understanding how to make presentations engaging. This involves understanding a wide range of different areas, from body language to the art of rhetoric.
I also specialise in helping people overcome their fear of public speaking (which is common amongst people new to leadership positions).
