No-one was born with powerful communication, speaking or leadership skills but anyone can learn how to communicate with IMPACT and
INFLUENCE.
Stop winging it and invest in these leadership, career making, and critical future skills.
In-house, public master classes (link at the bottom of the page for upcoming public master classes) or private coaching options for your key people.
I’m a bit obsessed about powerful presenting and making an impact.
When you speak out and have your message heard, the ripple effect can be remarkable.
I’ve been busy helping experts, executives, entrepreneurs and organisations to grow their business and their brands by harnessing the power of speaking and influential communication skills for the past 3 decades.
I love the results I get working closely with my clients, knowing that when I’m done, they now have the confidence, knowledge and skills to have a real impact on the people and organisations they work with.
I am fortunate enough to work with some of Australia’s largest companies and Government Departments and I love to work across industries. Progressive companies invest in communication and leadership skills, the most critical skills in modern business. Call me to explore how I can work with your team.
(regardless of the size)
Who I Work With for:
Public Speaking and Presentation Skills
Communication Skills
Business Presenting and Pitching
Leadership Development
Whether it’s training your staff, crafting your brand message, pitching to the board, leading your team or presenting at conference, I want to help you to communicate your message with clarity, competence and confidence.
I enjoy working across industries with business and organisational leaders who are committed to making an IMPACT. I’m just as addicted to achieving your goals as you are.

Storytelling for Business Professionals
We are wired to listen to stories. Stories embed in the brain in a completely different way than facts and figures. Stories can help us to communicate more effectively, and stories can help us to influence those around us when it matters. Storytelling is a combination of art, science and delivery practice. This master class explores the power of story and how anyone can use storytelling as a method to influence, engage, inform and inspire others in a business context.
Private Presentation Skills, Executive or Business Coaching with Paula
If joining one of Paula's intimate master classes is not for you or you are looking for something a little more bespoke, you can book to work with Paula privately.

PRESENTATION SKILLS TRAINING CLIENT
I attended one of Paula’s workshops last night– Presentation skills with a twist. I was blown away! She is sharp, to the point and creative. There are many presentation skills workshops out there, but this was by far the most professional and inspiring workshop I have attended in years. She had everyone mesmerised by her expertise.
Talk about practice what you preach!

Paula, you surpassed my expectations as our keynote speaker. Your style, creativity, delivery, engaging persona and the list could go on. Wow! would be one word to sum up the presentation. I hope we can engage in your skills again in the near future. Our organisation was so impressed. So glad we connected. I would, and I will highly recommend you to anyone who is looking for a dynamic and engaging speaker.
