The Method:

A Five-Point Approach

Catherine's presence-based coaching draws on what Futurist Jack Uldrich calls "The Big AHA," which stands for Awareness, Humility, and Action. We begin with the Awareness of habits. Then, together with our clients, we move forward with a sense of Humility and a desire for wisdom. Lastly, we ensure the change sticks by creating practical Action (i.e., it takes consistent practice to transform yourself as a leader!)

  • Breath: This is the foundation for all we do. Make it conscious, and you'll be conscious!
  • Posture: Alignment and poise are critical to powerful delivery and empowering others.
  • Gesture: Developing awareness around your body language will ensure well-aligned messages.
  • Content: The words you choose and how you say them create the atmosphere and inspire others.
  • Mind Set: We'll help you craft a new mantra with you that propels you toward success.

What People Are Saying

“I was fortunate to have Catie engage on numerous occasions with my clients. Every. Single. Time. the feedback was just outstanding. She brings a massive skillset along with the compassion and empathy required to move people far beyond what they ever thought was capable in their professional and personal lives.”

Matt T.
Augury

“Catherine is smart, creative and breaks down the development of speeches and presentation skills into manageable components. She has a keen ability to focus on the most powerful changes one can make to improve their speech development and presentation/public speaking skills. In just three sessions, Catherine provided  me with practical advice which made a difference in my speech and presentation skills immediately. Catherine considers the whole person when she is coaching --working not only with voice and physical presence but also uncovering the mental barriers that prevent us from being our best.”

Patty S.

“Catherine is an excellent speech coach!  As an inspirational speaker and sales trainer, I have to be on top of my game.  Catherine trains professional athletes, top performing sales executives and people who just simply want to be more polished.  In addition, she pays special attention to your specific needs and goals.  I highly recommend hiring Catherine to take your career to the next level.”

Brian O.

“I've worked with Catherine a couple of times in the past. My former employer, McKinsey & Co., suggest I work with a speach coach given my international background to help make me a more effective communicator. I can tell you up front, I am extremely grateful for all the help I have received from Cathering over my ~1 year of working with her. She used innovative techniques to help me develop my own unique communication style rather than just conform to a typical format and be less authentic. I am still benefitting from the help I received and know that the changes she helped to make will be invaluable over the rest of my career.”

“I hired Catherine to work on my accent reduction, and was pleasantly surprised by the thorough evaluation and coaching that I received. She did not focus solely on my accent, but took the time to look at the whole picture and identify areas of development in all aspects of my communication style. The exercises she developed for me were creative and tailored to my personality. I am very pleased with the changes I’ve achieved both in my verbal and non-verbal communication, and would recommend Catherine to anyone who needs an effective communications coach.”
