Is presenting a key part of your job, yet it never feels as natural, efficient, or effective as everything else?
Good news! You're not alone. Being a great speaker isn't about fitting into a template. It's about finding the unique, authentic style that works for you.
Hi, I’m Andrea, Executive Speaker Coach
I've been working behind the scenes and coaching speakers at conferences all over the world for almost 25 years. After starting my career as an event producer for large flagship events for Gartner and Visa Europe, I began working as a freelance Keynote producer and coach in 2014. This experience has taught me that there are many different ways to be an amazing speaker. Traditional presentation advice doesn't always work for everyone, but with the right guidance, anyone can become a powerful speaker by finding what works for them.
That’s why I work differently with my clients, helping you find your way to speak with clarity, confidence and presence – by combining:
Planning & preparation that starts with your audience, not your slides
Storytelling and structure that give your message a clear, memorable journey
Power & positivity – as a PQCOACH™, I use practical mindset tools so nerves and self‑doubt stop running the show
If you’re ready to become the presenter you know you could be, I’ll help you create and deliver presentations that:
feel more natural and less scripted,
connect with the people who matter, and
get real results for you and your organisation
You walk away feeling calm and confident in your ability to influence any audience and have the desired impact.
Book your free call with me and let’s talk about what you need to smash your next presentation.
“I could not recommend Andrea more! Not only is her technical and practical advice excellent and impactful, but the energy she brings to every session is fantastic. She is very good at helping you create a positive and confident mindset, which I wouldn’t have been able to achieve on my own. The structure of her approach was very helpful, and her guidance is also bespoke to you, your presentation content and your audience. Having Andrea in your corner really makes all the difference.”
-Abbie Coleman
You know what else can hold a great speaker back? Their own mind. My own Imposter Syndrome nearly stopped me from becoming a speaker coach! Even though with lots of encouragement from the speakers I worked with, I became overcome with fear. I told myself:
❌ “You’re not like the other coaches you've worked with.”
❌ “You haven't been to RADA or been a TV presenter.”
❌ “You don’t speak yourself on huge stages."
It took a couple of years for the penny to drop, but those supposed “weaknesses” were actually some of my greatest strengths. They were what made me different and unique. Today, they mean:
✅ My knowledge comes from 20+ years of working with speakers all over the world and seeing just how many different ways there are to be a wonderful presenter.
✅ My experience working with large corporates and producing international events helps me truly understand the pressure of navigating multiple stakeholders, hard deadlines , and cultural differences.
✅ I can truly understand challenges like nerves and imposter syndrome - I have them too!
✅ My multi-industry experience working for a diverse range of companies enables me to ask the right questions to help you craft strong, simple messages from complex content
✅ Having spent thousands of hours in rehearsals, I know how to give feedback that works quickly to get the best out of every speaker
✅ The speakers I work with enjoy my focus on them and find me approachable and comfortable to work with. I find the right model for them, rather than pushing a one-size-fits-all solution.
I'm now completely fascinated by working with people to investigate their feelings of Imposter Syndrome and helping them change the narrative in their heads. And I haven't yet come across a situation where it's not possible. I have now coached speakers from Europe, Asia, Africa, and North and South America, across multiple industries, from organisations including: Admiral Insurance, Arkeiva, Astra Zeneca, Atlas Copco, Bayer, Black Rock, Brambles, California State Government, CHEP, Colgate, DSIT, Forvia, Gartner, General Dynamics, Hill’s Pet Nutrition, H&M, IBA Group, ICON Plc, International Olympic Committee, Microsoft, Nokia, Primark, Procore, PWC, Sanofi, Schneider Electric, SHI, Telenor, T-Mobile, Universities of Bath, Leicester, Loughborough & Surrey, Unilever, Unity, VMware and Visa Europe, Xerox.
