High‑touch coaching for leaders who need to perform — and create — at a higher level, fast.
What it is
A premium, highly tailored coaching engagement for founders, leaders and subject‑matter experts who want to communicate with more clarity, confidence and impact — live, in meetings, on stage, and on camera.
Who it’s for
- Leaders preparing for high‑stakes speaking (keynotes, board updates, pitches)
- Experts building a visible personal brand (LinkedIn, video, podcast)
- People who want rehearsal + practical technique, not generic “tips”
What we work on (examples)
- Story selection + shaping (so your message lands)
- Strong openings and “buttons” (clean endings)
- Delivery: pace, pauses, warmth, presence
- Managing nerves and finding a reliable pre‑performance routine
- Turning ideas into usable assets (talk track, slide beats, short‑form clips)
A real example (Ali Braid)
In Ali’s sessions we worked on:
- Story structure using Save the Cat (15‑beat framework) to build an engaging keynote narrative
- Practice methods: “speed runs” and speaking in different languages to reduce overthinking
- Physical warm‑up: “head, shoulders, knees and toes” technique for grounded delivery
- Logistics and prep for a major event (Excel, March 18)
How it works
- Quick diagnostic (what’s coming up, what matters, what success looks like)
- Build the message (theme, story beats, structure)
- Rehearse like a performer (repeatable drills + feedback)
- Create assets (talk notes, story beats, CTAs, optional short content plan)
Format
- Usually delivered on Zoom (or in person when relevant)
- Sessions are practical, interactive and rehearsal‑heavy
