Pitch Coaching & Presentation Skills

Since 2017 I have worked with over 70 design students helping them to prepare their pitches for design and entrepreneurship competitions and create compelling presentations to convey their ideas to stakeholders and potential sponsors and partners in social innovation or entrepreneurship projects.

The process involves educating students on how to effectively communicate their ideas and build compelling presentations that can be used in any scenario that involves connecting with an audience of prospective sponsors, employers or collaborators with whom their is a shared goal to build a community.

Leadership and Community Building

Leadership is not about controlling others. It is not about dominance and aggressive pursuit of your goals.

Leadership is emotional intelligence (EI) harnessed to pursue a common purpose that can only be accomplished collectively.

It is about storytelling, purpose and grit & resilience. Planning and strategy.

The process involves educating students on what EI is and how to cultivate it; the mechanics of storytelling, purpose and resilience.
