Why it matters
If you’re sick, you consult a doctor to help make you better. We do the same for media and public speaking. If you have a question or concern about an upcoming presentation, interview or pitch, we’ll give you instant, actionable feedback and practical tips so that when you get up to speak for real, you do so with confidence.
Who it’s for
Anyone who needs to deliver a significant speech, pitch, presentation or interview. This service is for corporate executives, entrepreneurs, spokespeople and public-sector leaders.
Why it works
Sometimes you don’t have time for a full training session. Maybe you’ve had some in the past. Now you need help with a specific issue or presentation. Or perhaps you need a refresher, or a quick run-through with someone who does this for a living? Whatever the case, we’ll help you to be a better public speaker.

A bilingual journalist and MC, specializing in business and tech, Charlotte has worked for leading media outlets, including Bloomberg TV, Reuters and Euronews. In a 20+ year career, she’s interviewed more than 1,000 business and political leaders, and many of today’s leading influencers.
Elliott gave a really good media background presentation to the execs followed by several practical sessions. It was particularly useful, due to Elliott’s strong media background to run ‘dummy’ interviews for the execs, which were then played back immediately and critiqued by Elliott. I look forward to working with him again.
The chairman of a tech event needed help delivering his opening remarks on stage. We began by getting a sense of what he wanted to say. We distilled his story into a compelling narrative, along with suggested visuals, giving him the tools he needed to deliver it. He drafted his remarks. We refined them, leaving him with a tight, engaging speech with which to open his event.
Deborah’s help was indispensable in navigating media interviews during periods of tension. She taught me how to answer nightmare questions, how to craft compelling stories, and the importance of non-verbal communication. I highly recommend her training sessions to anyone who wants to improve the way they present themselves.
I was fortunate to have Elliott Gotkine train me several times and it was priceless. He is one of the best. Highly recommend!
