A Range of Services to Meet Your Communications Needs
Organizations are facing more communications demands than ever: internal alignment, public-facing storytelling, executive visibility, media engagement, and content production at a volume that didn't exist a decade ago. Few teams can take all of it on alone. Here’s how I can help:
Fractional Communications Officer
Not every organization needs a full-time chief communications officer, though many would benefit from the vision, seasoned judgment, and efficiency the role brings to decisions made under pressure, especially at critical turning points during the growth of young companies.
While readily customized to your organization’s specific needs, fractional services typically include ongoing strategic counsel, oversight of internal and external communications, executive support, and crisis preparedness.
Communications Audit
When an organization senses that its communications aren't landing the way they should, the instinct is to reach for a quick fix: a new campaign, fresh marketing, or a media push. But without a clear read on what's actually causing the friction, those fixes tend to address the symptom rather than the cause.
The audit helps your organization take a meaningful look at the full picture through an on-site visit, candid conversations with the people across your organization, and an honest assessment of where things stand with opportunities for improvement.
Simulations and Role-Playing Training
The communications moments that shape an organization's reputation (like a difficult board meeting, a tough interview, a public forum) are often the ones no one is quite sure how to prepare for. Simulations give your team a place to work through those scenarios before the stakes are real.
Sessions are built around the specific situations your organization is likely to encounter, with one to three on-site visits depending on your business needs.
Media Training
An employee who can speak comfortably to a reporter (or who knows when and how to hold back) is one of the most undervalued assets an organization has. The wrong soundbite can follow a company for years, while the right one can open doors that would otherwise stay closed.
Mock public presentations and interviews along with individualized feedback help employees feel ready to engage across broadcast, podcast, print, social media, and event formats.
Executive Coaching
The people at the top of an organization carry its story whether they mean to or not. How that story lands comes down to craft – speaking clearly, reading the room, and holding a position under pressure.
One-on-one coaching is available as an ongoing engagement or as focused preparation for a specific event. We’ll cover media training, speechwriting, talking-point development, presentations, and public speaking best practices.
Content Roadmap
Bringing in an outside consultant who produces great content and then disappears is a recurring expense. A team equipped to produce its own content – sustainably, in its own voice – builds an in-house capability that pays dividends long after the end of an engagement.
The Content Roadmap is a documented system built around democratized storytelling, giving employees and communications staff a workable process that helps them develop the confidence, spontaneity, and technical know-how to create narratives aligned with your company’s goals.
Podcast Production
A well-made podcast can establish your organization as a thought leader while helping you master the narrative of your specific sector – and does so in moments of sustained, week-after-week attention that other formats struggle to achieve.
End-to-end production includes editorial development, guest curation, recording, and post-production.
Impact Filmmaking
A documentary built around authentic human stories is a convening tool that allows people to gather, discuss issues, dispel misconceptions, and connect deeply, while leaving an impression that endures well beyond the screening itself. These engagements allow for the kinds of conversations and relationships required to build strong foundations for cultivating shared understanding and stakeholder consensus.
This service covers full production, including research, scripting, production, editing, distribution, and re-editing for shorter formats and additional venues.
