Speak with clarity. Build your confidence.

Public speaking is a skill you can learn. You do not need to become a different person to be a more confident speaker.

Through Podium Perfect, I help individuals and teams prepare for presentations, interviews, speeches and media appearances. We work with your voice, your goals and the situations you want to feel more confident in.

One-to-one coaching

Perhaps you have an important presentation coming up. Perhaps interviews leave you second-guessing yourself, or you want to feel more comfortable speaking without a script.

One-to-one coaching gives us space to focus on what you need: organising your ideas, delivering them clearly and handling questions with confidence.

Team coaching

Support for teams who need to present, explain their work or speak with clients and colleagues. We can discuss the situations your team faces and the skills you want to develop.

Courses

I run four-week public-speaking courses for groups of eight or more, online or in person as required. The courses are interactive, with exercises, group work and the chance to prepare and practise speeches and presentations. Get your group together and get in touch to discuss dates.

Practice for the moments that matter

  • Presentations and keynote speeches.

  • Job interviews and challenging questions.

  • Panel contributions and media appearances.

  • Speaking clearly to different audiences.

There is no speaking opportunity too small to get support with. Tell me what you are preparing for and what you would like to feel more confident doing.

Experience

I have coached professionals, politicians, students and graduates, with experience supporting clients including TikTok, Bloomberg, Citibank, Aetna, Pfizer and the University of Cambridge.

In the lead-up to the 2017 and 2019 elections I trained over 100 candidates, over 30 of whom went on to become MPs; many have since served in ministerial and cabinet positions.

I have trained over 14,000 people, largely through large group sessions.

Podium Purpose - pro bono coaching

I coach students to help them build their confidence, develop their interview skills and to show them public speaking can be enjoyable. I have trained over a thousand students, including students at a number of universities including the University of Cambridge, University of Reading and York St John University.

Podium Purpose offers free coaching for students at state schools that meet the criteria as part of our community pro bono work. This free one hour session can focus on public speaking and confidence building, interview techniques for university and jobs, or a combination of the two.

If you’d like to ask about coaching for your school, or to check whether your school meets the criteria for free training, get in touch.
