Executive Speechwriting and Speech Coaching Services
for Individual Executives and Executive Teams
When an executive team “speaks as one,” their message is believable and their desired outcome is achievable.
Nothing is more inspiring to an audience than to see their leaders deliver powerful, motivating and clearly-communicated presentations where all team members present one unified and cohesive message and call to action…
… and nothing is more jarring than hearing many different speeches, with inconsistent (sometimes even conflicting) viewpoints and no clear organizational objective.
Even those with very good speaking skills can benefit from the outside viewpoint of an expert speechwriter and speech coach. Whether you are a solo executive presenter or part of an executive team, Sandy will help you drive results, advance your agenda and further elevate your credibility and reputation by elevating your presentation content, as well as your platform skills.
With her speechwriting services, Sandy will:
- Identify your individual and group objectives and acquaint herself with your organization to craft a customized speech that reflects your culture and values and connects with your audience;
- Learn your “voice,” so each presenter is able to use language and methods that help them deliver each speech authentically and passionately, as though they wrote it themselves;
- Use her mind-mapping method specifically designed to organize your speech into a logical flow, so one idea progresses smoothly to the next, building a solid foundation for each point and eliminating confusion and misunderstandings.
- Using this system, Sandy will also map out your entire event and all speeches to be delivered, to ensure that all speeches connect with each other, are presented in a logical sequence to promote understandability and buy-in, and prevent the accidental omission of important topics;
- Ensure smooth transitions from one section of the speech to the next, in order to eliminate the impression of jumping” from one unrelated topic to another;
- Review the speech for grammatical correctness and completeness, reducing the potential for audience members to focus on your grammatical skills rather than your important message (believe me, it happens more often than we'd like to think!);
- Break down complex concepts into bite-sized, understandable “chunks;”
- Craft and deliver appropriate stories and examples to increase your emotional impact, illustrate complex concepts and inspire your audience to take action to achieve your goals;
- Work with your presentation design team to ensure that any required PowerPoint presentations reflect the clarity of the written speech and support the speech in engaging and interesting ways;
- Create a one-sheet handout that summarizes the top actions and mindsets you want attendees to take home with them. These one-sheets are often used as "checklists" for future actions and accomplishments to help team members focus on priorities and stay on track.
With her speech coaching services, Sandy will help you:
- Understand and utilize the nuances of tempo, pacing and volume to deliver your message authentically and passionately;
- Identify and eliminate signs of nervousness or hesitation;
- Recognize the best delivery method and location for each portion of your speech;
- Rehearse with you on and off the stage to prepare you for maximum impact and identify any previously unrecognized challenges with speech delivery.
