Corporate Workshops
Professional communication is not dead. It has evolved.Â
Deliver Your Best is a modern approach to increasing public speaking confidence and makes using professional, engaging, and clear language feel natural.Â
As a public speaking coach who has worked with clients all over the world, here is what I see:
Managers are unsure about their team members ability to represent the company.
Communication is sometimes too candid or too careless - other times the message or urgency is unclear. A lack of confidence while speaking is evident.
Team members want to do well at work, but are no longer willing to lose their personality to fit into a corporate setting.
Some also feel abandoned because they have never received training on what is ok, what is not, and how to speak clearly and confidently.
They are trying their best. It is just not coming across because they are taking a shot in the dark. This is where I come in...
Being authentic and professional is a teachable skill
In my workshops I share tools, speaking structures, and mindsets that make using professional, engaging, and clear language feel natural. Participants learn how to communicate clearly, maintain professional boundaries, and still feel like themselves.
This is the evolution of workplace communication. It's training your employees will actually enjoy, while providing leadership with a sense of relief.
How we can work together
I pride myself on crafting professional development your employees will actually enjoy. I can help anyone - no matter their experience level - feel more confident and authentic when they speak.
When I work with corporate clients, I like to tailor the service to their specific needs. I am able to do a lunch and learn or a half-day workshop.Â
For the highest impact I would recommend my four-part workshop series that includes a personalized assessment for each participant.Â
The four workshops focus on: Confidence, Clarity & Engagement, Managing Communication Challenges, and Networking with an emphasis on developing an effective communication style that demonstrates confidence and professionalism.
Topics include:
- Increasing Confidence to quickly establish trust with the audience
- Preparation techniques that help you make the most of opportunities
- Tips on Vocal Delivery including speed, volume, cadence, and word choice
- Clear Structures for presentations, speaking up in meetings, etc.
- Approaching Difficult Topics while minimizing potential for conflict
- Networking Behaviour that makes a great impression
- Guidelines for Small Talk so everyone feels comfortable

"I would absolutely recommend Heather to someone considering hiring her. Leading up to the event, she was easy to work with, coordinating the event theme, programming, and format. Her approach to events is exciting to watch as it was clear that she knows how to cater her skills and abilities to the target audience of the event. Her ability to read the room proactively and guide the program, even before she starts speaking, was very helpful and reassuring as the organizer. Heather is a fantastic speaker, and audiences are drawn to her engaging presence on stage."
- Mary Stirling, University of Saskatchewan

- BHP Billiton (BWISE group)
"Never have I felt so inspired by an emcee. And I don’t say that lightly. As someone who took your course, I saw you exemplify every single principle you coach others on—except you delivered it on a gold platter. Sentence after sentence, I was struck by the impact and intent woven into every word. I felt so seen. I felt like women’s sports were in the best hands—and that was just from your opening story. You captivated every single person in that room. I watched as people smiled, nodded, and even sat a little taller while you spoke. All of that before the keynote even began."
- Lisa Greig, Women of InfluenceÂ

I would love to speak at your next event or run a workshop for your office. Let me know some details and I'll get back to you quickly.
I would highly recommend Heather if you are looking for an energetic and engaging speaker!Â
She is thoughtful and informative and will leave the audience inspired to take on their next public speaking challenge.
Heather was our lunch keynote and the energy, research and insights resonated with the audience and helped bring a new perspective to public speaking. She was engaging and left the audience feeling empowered and equipped to improve their public speaking skills.
It was our highest rated luncheon event so far this year by the attendees!
