THE MOST EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION IS CONVERSATION

If it’s in a formal presentation, on the web, or at a cocktail party, we teach you how to steer the conversation and land your message every time.

 

We provide customized training for you and your team—it’s as simple as that. From new hires to sales forces to senior management, we research your company, its culture, and the participants to develop your customized program.

About

MAKE YOUR STORY WORTH RETELLING

The art and science of effective presentation techniques

Exceptional presentations are based on telling great stories through engaging conversations.

 

It doesn’t matter if it’s an informal chat across a table or a presentation in front of several hundred people. We will show you how to: 

  • Determine your audience’s needs

  • Craft your message clearly and succinctly

  • Get your audience on board

  • Know when to shift to “Plan B” (because "Plan A" doesn't always work)

  • Speak persuasively and confidently

  • Finish strong

  • Make your message memorable and worth revisiting

Make Your Story Worth Retelling

HANDLE THE HOT SEAT

Media training for any medium

Whether it’s a phone interview for a trade publication, a press release, or a comment on breaking news, spokespeople have to be ready, educated, and sure of their message.

 

We are experienced media coaches with over two decades of dealing with the press, both on camera and off. We will show you how to:

  • Guide an interview

  • Engage the reporter

  • Become the “go to” source

  • Pivot in the crunch

  • Stay on message

  • Think before you speak

  • Create powerful word choices

  • Develop relationships with reporters

Handle the Hot Seat

PUT YOUR BEST FOOT FORWARD

Nailing the interview from prep to accept

You don’t just want a job. You want a career fit. 

 

We have helped candidates of every age and experience level to:

  • Focus your efforts where they will be the most productive

  • Research the companies and culture you want to be a part of

  • Find the right fit

  • Write a cover letter that will actually be read

  • Tailor resumes for specific interviews

  • Understand the interview process

  • Prepare for the interview with more than just “great answers”

  • Learn what to do the night before

  • Listen. Learn. Wait. Respond.

  • Choose the right words for maximum impact

Put Your Best Foot Forward

BE YOUR BRAND

How to establish your value and credibility through social media and networking

The only thing you can do better than anyone else is be the best “you” possible.

 

Personal branding is not just a catch phrase—it’s a way to create credibility, respect, and success. We have helped hundreds of college applicants, young professionals, and seasoned executives identify and build on what they do best. We help you: 

  • Realize your strengths 

  • Identify opportunities for improvement 

  • Move away from what has “always worked”

  • Build a plan to market yourself

  • Use social media to network to your target audience

SOCIAL ISN'T JUST FOR MEDIA

The etiquette of positive human interaction

Many deals are made outside of the office. 

 

We show you how to lead and finish with your most attractive and compelling real-life self. We coach you on how to: 

  • Converse with total strangers

  • Read a room 

  • Know what to wear (and when)

  • Capitalize on generational differences

  • Make the most of your time in a business social setting

  • Navigate restaurants, events, bars, clubs, and wine lists

  • Avoid social pitfalls from greetings to goodbyes (and everything in between)

  • Appropriately time follow-ups

BE SEEN. BE HEARD. BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.

Breaking through the noise

Communication skills that stand out are essential to take your business relationships to the next level. 

 

We are all bombarded with emails, texts, invites—even phone calls. We help you: 

  • Grab your audience’s attention

  • Be read

  • Have your call returned

  • Be understood 

  • Follow through with more than just obvious self-promotion

  • Entice curiosity and leave them wanting more

Be Your Brand
Be Seen. Be Heard. Be Taken Seriously.
Social Isn't Just for Media
