Straight Talk Speaking™ is my speaking, training, facilitation, and communication coaching, helping leaders, teams, and organizations communicate with clarity, confidence, credibility, and courage.

Who it is for: conferences and associations, corporate and nonprofit teams, leaders and professionals, and emerging speakers who want to be understood when it counts.

Signature talks: 

• Breaking Point, from collapse to courage. 
• Clear Decisions Under Emotional Pressure. 
• Stop. Breathe. Decide., an introduction to the Clean Decision Method™. 
• Speak Like You Mean It™. 
• Leadership Inclusivity: strength is never partial. 
• Succession Planning, with a twist.

Workshops and training: executive presence, difficult conversations, communicating decisions, storytelling for leaders, impromptu speaking, and communication across cultures, from one-hour sessions to multi-session programs, virtual or in person.

Facilitation: honest, structured, psychologically safe conversations for leadership meetings, strategic planning, and team development. 

Coaching: for keynotes, high-stakes presentations, interviews, and the moments that matter.

Why me: more than thirty years in Toastmasters and the Distinguished Toastmaster designation, decades of leadership development, and a room that always leaves warmer than it started. I am serious about communication, and I do not believe learning has to be joyless.
