Our Purpose: Support Emerging Leaders

When most training fails or barely helps, what needs to be done?

Existing knowledge, craft, and technique should make leadership progress awesome. BUT....

Most training fails. Why? Lack of full engagement and lack of full relevance. Often merely, "Interesting" advice retires to binders on dusty shelves - never to be consulted again. When training is too much presentation, when you aren't fully engaged, when you never put skin in the game, then despite best intentions, nothing happens!

NOT THE CASE with Live Training & Coaching from Words & Presence!

Here's the (short!) laundry list of issues & baggage you probably encountered:

Above all, most training don't let you engage and lock in how you'll take the new techniques into battle.
There's a culture of engineering that treats leadership as an automatic or side-note
Executive Training tends to be stilted by the left-over attitudes of the old-boy network
No Corporate allocation for skill building, training or mentoring
Weak (or even toxic) communication styles have become rooted in some organizations and drive out the good
Just plain wrong ideas about how leaders should behave. (We're not becoming servants!)
Old-school training based on myths, abstractions, and buzzwords.

What are we doing about the problem?

Number one, giving you feedback and insight nobody else can give

Then, we help you get skin in the game to own progress. You'll practice real executive moves live. A little uncomfortable? Perhaps, but if you need results this is the winning way. And there are unique advantages not found in other training:

This is perfomance-based learning process; You will practice your material delivered live with realistic feedback
You create a leadership persona (call it a "game face") to bundle all the desired behaviors into a single trigger
You'll get guidance and practice in how to develop a concise, simple, and actionable "message" (or message set)
Since we're already "performing" the communication, you'll get coaching and hands-on improvements in delivery
You'll get end-to-end feedback and strategies to build stronger and more effective messages

Curious? Verify The Opportunity!

Seriously, There's zero reason to keep waiting. Our coaching and training is 100% guaranteed, and the call is no-cost. Direct performance training, based on best models simply wins.

About

Roy Terry

As the youngest of 6, smart words helped me survive! In College, debate and story writing proved the power logic+emotion. I was hooked.

Since the mid 90s, I’ve coached countless professionals to develop & deliver messages effectively. As a pitch coach, I’ve helped hundreds of founders find power. In person or virtually, I’ve worked with professionals in India, France, China, Tunis, and Korea. I’ve lead sessions at Google Launch Pad, and the MIT Enterprise Forum. I’ve trained extensively with professional speakers, and explored acting, improv, and even standup. All to better leverage words and ideas. Individual clients hail from Apple, eBay, Google, AT&T, Amazon, and Symantec as well as many Silicon Valley startups. The goal: Get the story, compose the elements, and ace the delivery with authority.

What I've learned:

Too many talented executives are stalled, and uncertain how to move up. Corporate structure and expectations are daunting. It doesn't have to be! That’s why I've created a large array of pragmatic tools and techniques to accelerate your effectiveness. Rather move in 3 months vs 3 years? The ball is in your court!

Words & Presence "just works!"

No reason to wait.
