Speaker Development

Seventeen years of speaker coaching, pointed at your leadership team instead of ours.

Until now, the need for a high-quality service that goes beyond simply finding the right speakers — one that also ensures their preparation for delivering a flawless and distinctive speech — had not been fully recognised. The TEDxAthens/SBS team consists of experienced professionals who inspire trust and confidence in the final outcome, which in our collaboration truly impressed us.

Picture it: your chief executive stops presenting and starts speaking.

We have spent seventeen years getting people who are brilliant at their subject to be good at the eighteen minutes. That is a specific craft: finding the one idea, cutting everything that is not it, and rehearsing until the delivery disappears.

The programme runs as a closed cohort for your leadership team — typically six to ten people over eight to twelve weeks, working with the same coaches who prepare our speakers, plus guest sessions from the TEDxAthens speaker network.

It ends with a filmed showcase in the theatre. Several partners have used that recording as their year-opening internal address.
