Public Speaking Coach

Project details

What we need
  • Personalized feedback and up to 5 coaching sessions with one member of the Organization
  • Document outlining strengths, weaknesses, and suggested next steps and/or resources for the member
What we have in place
  • We currently have funder and marketing materials, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have dedicated staff member and upcoming events, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $2,420 , allowing us to publicly communicate to our funders, supporters, and constituency in a much more effective way.

As we begin our fundraising and issue advocacy work in 2019, our Executive Director would like to improve his public communications skills in order to be as as effective as possible in achieving our fundraising and issue organizing goals.

Brooke's expertise as a vocalist, performer, and coach is incredible. I am leaps and bounds ahead of where I thought I'd be when it comes to public speaking and it's all thanks to her. Her skills and knowledge are invaluable and I can't recommend her enough.
