The Meeting After the Meeting
Ever notice that the real conversation starts...after the meeting ends?
That's often because people were too confused -- or too intimidated to ask questions while you were speaking.
If people need a translator after your presentation...something important got lost.

Confidence Is Overrated
You don't need more confidence.
You need fewer reasons to doubt yourself.
There's a difference.

Fear Doesn't Always Look Like Fear
Sometimes fear sounds like...
Talking too fast.
Using too many words.
Over-explaining.
Apologizing.
Filling every silence.
Not all fear looks frightened. I can help...

Ever Notice This?
Have you ever listened to someone for five minutes...and still had no idea what they were trying to say?
Neither have they.
I can help you.

Here's a Dangerous Question...
What if the audience isn't confused... you're confusing them?
Not because you're unintelligent. Because what's crystal clear inside your own head isn't necessarily clear to everyone else.
Communication isn't about what you know.
It's about what they understand.

Here's a Thought...
If someone remembers your PowerPoint...but can't remember your message...did you really communicate?

Things I Notice
You Don't Have a Speaking Problem
Most people don't have a speaking problem.
They have a thinking problem.
When your thoughts become clear... your words usually follow.
That's why simply "working on confidence" rarely works.

WHY SHEILA?
Because my goal isn't simply to help you give a better presentation. My goal is to change the way you think about communication.
When that changes...
everything else becomes easier. And that transformation lasts long after our lessons are over.

This is my voice student, Joe Robinson —on the left—with his great friend Emil Ernebro. Both superb! I wish I could improv like this! Enjoy! 😎

WHY SHEILA?
Because I don't teach people to imitate great speakers.
I help them discover what makes them compelling.
Audiences don't remember copies.
They remember authenticity.
