executive speaking skills and Corporate communications

Board presentations, media interviews, panel discussions, recorded videos and virtual town halls are part of the job when you’re in a senior leadership role. Mimi Bliss and Holly Conner work extensively with both established and high-potential leaders on speaking skills, including how to:

• Connect with your audience, whether you’re on video or in-person

• Speak in a conversational, yet intentional manner

• Use prepared talking points as a guide, not a script

• Use voice, pause, eye contact and gestures to speak effectively

• respond to challenging questions

• Work with your corporate communications team on a system to quickly and effectively prepare for speaking engagements and media interviews

  Executive presentation skills includes 1:1 coaching (in-person or virtually) and access to Bliss Communications’ library of on-demand videos with techniques for presentations, speeches and media interviews.

  Mimi often works with corporate communications teams on techniques they can use to prepare their organization’s leaders for speeches, recorded videos, Town Halls, media interviews, and business presentations. Her goal is to provide the internal communications team with skills and strategies to support their leaders in the long-term.
