Global Leadership Communication Coaching
Powerful communication and Powerful People Skills for global leadership
If you lead global teams (or aspire to), you need a very specific balance of many different skills in communication. Through a detailed consultation with you, we will determine exactly what combination of challenges you are facing and how we can best take your communication to the next level.
Some of the most common objectives our C-suite communication coaching Clients have include:
- Identify blind spots so you understand yourself and others better and embrace a true global mindset
- Determine your personal brand and how you communicate that within the company and to the world
- Improve global English pronunciation to make a stronger impression on global stakeholders
- Enhance in-person and online skills in presentation in front of audiences of all sizes
- Define and express your vision clearly to inspire and motivate employees at every level
- Raise your confidence to represent the company by speaking up at conferences and appearing in the media.
- Adapt your communication style to specific individuals and contexts
Presentation Coaching
Increase your confidence when speaking to audience of all sizes – In-person or online!
As a top leader of a company, you will be called upon regularly to deliver presentations, both internally and externally, as well as at conferences and in front of the media. Presentation coaching can help you to simplify and organize your content, engage your audience, choose the right stories, and perfect your delivery technique.
We specialize in coaching the C-suite and other top leaders to Present With Confidence and impact. Whether it’s helping the CEO deliver an engaging town hall address or finessing the CFO’s presentation of quarterly numbers, we help top global leaders understand the rhetorical theory as well as the practical application behind an engaging, powerful and successful presentation.
With the trend of Online Presentations rising, we can also help you manage the tech, connect with online audiences, and gain confidence on camera.
Pronunciation Coaching
Be understood by everyone, everywhere, every time!
Do you want people to listen to what you say and not how you say it? Pronunciation training can help you to avoid embarrassing misunderstandings and to get the respect you deserve.
Our pronunciation coaching is not about taking away your accent or making you sound like the Queen. It is based on decades of research on global intelligibility, and the specific changes you need to make to be understood by the greatest number of people worldwide.
Between coaching sessions, you will have access to Heather Hansen’s fully online Pronunciation Mastery Program. This course has helped hundreds of professionals improve their global English pronunciation. By practicing minimum 10 minutes each day, you can make dramatic shifts in your speech. Then in your coaching sessions, you’ll get feedback and instruction on what you’re doing right and where you can improve.
What our Clients say
Email and Business Writing Skills
Develop strong writing skills that avoid confusion and improve efficiency
Strong Email and Business Writing skills will help you become a better leader for your team (or a better member of your team). They will also help you to get noticed and advance your career. Strong writing skills can also help you and your team save time, avoid confusion, improve productivity, efficiency, and results.
With one-on-one coaching, we will work on your writing strengths, and identify areas where you can make a greater impact. By working with your actual work documents, we will take you through some powerful principles and formulas that will help you to tackle any writing challenge. You’ll learn how to write clear, well-structured, reader-friendly messages that improve productivity and get the right results.
From the language, tone and style of your writing, your readers can learn a lot about your knowledge, confidence, clarity, and your professionalism.
What does your writing say about you or your team?
Cross-cultural Communication and Understanding
Your company is going though massive change (upon change, upon change). It’s an entire shift of the organizational culture. On top of that you are managing multi-cultural teams with members who all have their own perspectives. It can feel overwhelming trying to make everyone happy and keeping them motivated.
This program will explore how you can view ‘culture’ differently. We are all members of 15-20 different cultures. Our team is just one of them. Once you understand more about your own cultures and other cultures, it will become easier to motivate and lead yourself and others. Learn about the difference between diversity and inclusion and where your focus should be and why.

All our programs have modular designs, making it easy to mix and match topics to create the perfect solution for your company.
