1 2 1 Coaching
with Ben
You’re a leader with a story to tell. Let me bring my years of experience as a teacher and coach, supported by techniques learned at The Yale School of Drama, to your work as a speaker.
No Script
My technique uses an outline or notecards I develop with you. But the bulk of what you say is spontaneous - leading to engaging authenticity and the ability to adjust to distinct audiences. We will rehearse thoroughly so you feel confident working from a series of your ideas, using your body and gestures, and knowing when to stick to the outline and when to pivot.
Solid Preparation
Your preparation will involve technique - enunciation, projection, breath support, using various amplification systems; storytelling - strong opening, three-act narrative structure, strong closing; personalization - linking what you are saying to your own lived and observed experiences. My goal is to get to know you, and tailor my coaching to your strengths.
Online and in person
Our work can take place in person and online over Zoom. However, support for live presentations should ultimately include in-person coaching. Ideally, we will be able to fine tune your presentation by examining the location of your event and the audience you are serving. Each presentation is unique, and my bespoke coaching will support the specifics of your event.
