Communication That Lands

From Comedy Stage to Boardroom

High-Stakes Communication. Without the Corporate Stiffness.

Ever noticed that a lot of communication training doesn't reflect your world? 

I coach what will make your stakeholders listen and then act.

My beginning

I began in comedy, originally as a writer, director and performer – and I bring a lot of these skills to my work. Today I work with  leaders at Google, Microsoft, Cigna, Tik Tok, major banks and governement organisations around the world,  helping them communicate complex ideas clearly, engagingly and with authority.

The through line isn’t “be funny.” It's how do we connect, so that people hear what we've said and then do something with that information. Comedians, script-writers and actors are the best in the world at this, and those skills can be learnt by anyone and simply applied to your communication.

Humans listen to humans.

Whether it's board presentation, investor pitches, strategy launches  or a virtual keynote, the stakes are always high. The room and minds are busy. Attention is increasingly fragile.

My work helps people:

• Think clearly as anxiety falls away

• Speak with authority

• Structure ideas so they land as a story

• Stay composed under pressure

• Grow in Confidence

• Tell stronger and clearer stories

Sessions are interactive, practical and built around real business moments.

Why Standup & Deliver Is Different

Here’s what clients consistently say stands out:

• Built on 25+ years of live performance and executive coaching

• Used with some of the world’s top keynote speakers

• Designed for real business pressure, not classroom exercises

• Hugely practical and interactive

• Blends structure, psychology, story and humour — appropriately

One global programme leader put it simply, when diaries meant we couldn't schedule in a session:

“It’s impossible to find a replacement who can do what you can do.”

It's not about gimmicks. It’s about impact.

People practise. They get feedback - which is where the magic happens.
Then they improve - often more than they thought possible!

And yes, as you can see from the testimonials, they really enjoy the journey!
