Do you think your voice might be letting you down? Do you hate to hear your voice on recordings or voice mail?
You'd be amazed at how many people think they sound like they mumble, sound too young, speak too fast, speak too softly....and worse.
As an Executive you need to be heard to be effective...to make an impact. You have to talk with internal and external clients; you have to make presentations; you talk on the phone; in short, you have to manage through conversations...and conversations require you to use your voice. So let's fix it. Once you know what to do and how to do it, it's easier than you think.
Even if we can't get you sounding exactly like Barack Obama, Barry White or Meryl Streep...we can get you a lot closer to sounding the best you. Don't suffer in silence...come and get some help.
