Hi, There
About Me
Most things are better caught than taught. As a master coach, I’ve honed my skill to lay foundation for about 10-30 minutes and then workshop/roleplay with participants, meeting them where they’re at. They’ll feel success—always harder to do than to hear about.
That’s why I am often voted the best presenter (ProductCamp Austin, Toastmasters train the trainer, NIHD, speaking camps, etc)… because lectures and sermons can just leave you hanging, but workshops get you going.
I’ll custom-develop a workshop that combines leadership, startups, and communications in any way to serve your team or group.
Common Workshops
The neuroscience of dropping guard
Acting the toughest [Product Management/Your Discipline] conversations you’ll have with execs, peers, and customers
Pitch workshop
I’ve secured millions in funding, closed millions in deals, and coached speakers for years – a trust-centric approach
Figures of speech workshop
Developing memorable phraseology like a Shakespearian marketer (see ATX Action Design video on the right)
Sales Discovery
Organize your sales team’s value propositions, evidence, and conversation flows into a winning, gated, and relational approach that works better
The executive launch frame
Workshop on launching levelled up meetings with execs
Founders must close the first deals
Here’s a co-creative sales approach you can use without being a “Challenger”
Uniting product / marketing / sales
Around developing the same exact value propositions
You can literally drop me into a room of young professionals, founders, or executives and I will ask three questions about today’s challenges and find a way to accelerate, engage, inform, and align.
Turning ambiguity into value by synthesizing on the fly is my greatest strength.
Occasionally, I’ll just lecture/tell a story, then engage in a long Q&A:
- How We Cut a Product Team’s costs 31% and Improved Quality, Speed, and Happiness by 25%+ each
- How Peacemaker’s Persuade: a polka-dotted mental model
