Your next talk matters
too much to leave it to chance.
Individual coaching built around your specific context: your message, your audience, your goals, your stakes, for your success.
Coaching optimized for your high-stake presentations
Coaching is the right choice when the stakes are high and the cost of being unprepared is real. Here are the moments we prepare people for.
TEDx Talk or Keynote
You have one shot, a strict time limit, and an idea worth spreading. We hone the message, build the architecture, optimize the delivery, and set you up for success.
Book a Discovery CallInvestor or Client Pitch
The structure of a pitch is not the same as the structure of a presentation. This coaching sharpens your narrative, your numbers story, and your ability to handle the Q&A under pressure.
Book a Discovery CallBoard or Executive Presentation
Boards don't want detail: they want clarity, confidence, and a recommendation. This coaching helps you structure content for decision-makers and present with the authority they respect.
Book a Discovery CallProfessional Events, Round Table, Trade Shows...
Business events such as trade shows or panels require a different approach, a different relationship with the audience, and a specific preparation. We build all three to ensure maximum impact.
Book a Discovery CallMost coaching targets the visible layer only. We go deeper.
You’ve been told to slow down. To make eye contact. Not to say "um." This is not wrong, but it only addresses the tip of the iceberg.
Public speaking is layered. What the audience sees, your voice, your gestures, your slides… is the surface. Beneath it stands the clarity of the idea you’re communicating, the structure of your argument, the groundedness of your physical presence. That is the difference between genuinely communicating something of value, or just performing for it. When the foundation is solid, the visible layers follow naturally.
Most preparation stops at voice and gesture. The IS method starts at the base: a clear idea, a structure that holds under pressure, a body that’s with you rather than against you. This is why "tips and tricks" don’t last, and why, after a session or two, something clicks that no amount of watching YouTube videos ever reached.
What a program looks like
in practice.
Diagnostic
We start by understanding your context, your audience, your stakes, and your goals. We ensure we are aligned before diving in.
Architecture & Clarity
We build the structure of your message. Even before writing slides, we leverage established frameworks such as McKinsey's Pyramid to build clarity. Because a strong structure is your most powerful asset.
Delivery & Performance
We build up your stage presence, reduce nervousness, and connect with the audience. We work on voice, gestures, posture, eye contact...
The goal is not to put on a show, but to align your delivery to your message while remaining authentic.
Rehearsal & Success
No empty dry runs: you learn who to prepare the most efficient way. We work on transitions, how to start, how to hold the audience’s attention.
I share with you my pro secrets and warm-up routine to ensure you bring your A-game from the first second on stage.
Optional D-day Support & Follow-up
If logistics and organizers permit, I will accompany you on the day of the event to ensure your success.
We set a follow-up session to reflect on your real-world practice, answer all your questions, and anchor your skills long-term.
You show up with a draft. You leave with something different.
You arrive with what you have at the moment, would it be an idea, a first draft, or just an invitation to speak at an event. The first ten minutes are about understanding your situation and goals: the moment, the audience, the stakes. Then the work is immediate.
Sessions are personalized, but not improvised. They build upon one another to support the creation of your talk. This is why we often set pre-work to be sent before the next session and make the most out of our time together.
Every session is recorded. Hearing yourself back is part of the work: you see yourself often differently from what you think you're projecting.
You leave with specific things adjusted, new tools, a new mindset, and a clearer sense of where to focus next.
Prepared. Not just rehearsed.
There is a difference between knowing your slides and owning your message. Coaching gets you to the second.
- A message architecture you can defend and own
- Presence you can access under pressure
- Q&A protocol you can rely on
- Video recordings of sessions for review
- Confidence that comes from preparation, not luck
High stakes. Real results.
"You can watch a lot of presentations online, or in person. But it's not the same. The trainer finds your weak points and corrects them. That's something you can't get anywhere else."
★★★★★"It’s one of the few training sessions that really stuck with me. I’ve been to a lot of training sessions in my life, and I never remember what I learned. This one really stuck with me, and it really changed the way I present."
The practical details.
Every engagement is scoped to your specific needs and timeline. Here is a sample of options.
Prefer to practice alongside self-paced learning?
The IS Lab combines self-paced IS Method modules with bi-weekly live sessions: Presentation Clinics, small-group practice, and direct feedback on real presentations.
Explore the IS Lab →Preparing a team, not just yourself?
Workshops bring the same method to teams and groups: shared vocabulary, practical tools, and a collective experience that lasts.

It depends on scope. For a specific upcoming talk: a TEDx, a board presentation, an investor pitch, 3 to 5 sessions over 4 to 6 weeks is typically enough. For a broader development of your public speaking, 6 to 7 sessions is more appropriate. We scope this together in the first call.
Yes. A single session is possible. Useful if you want to understand where the real problem is before committing to a full preparation arc. Many people start with one and continue from there.
Both work well. In-person is available in Lausanne and Geneva. Online sessions are available worldwide via video call. Sessions on delivery and rehearsal, where we work on physical presence, voice, and gesture, benefit from in-person when possible, but online is fully effective with a good setup.
Whatever you have: a draft, a slide deck, a vague idea, or just an invitation to speak or you wanting to improve your skills. We start with a diagnostic: we look at where you are now, what the stakes are, and what the most important thing to fix is. You don't need to have prepared anything specific.
Sessions are available in English or French, or a mix of both. If you're preparing a talk in a language that isn't your first, we can work in your stronger language and rehearse in the presentation language.
Pricing depends on scope, format, and timeline. We discuss this in the discovery call before any commitment. If you've enrolled in the online course, you benefit from a coaching discount for individual sessions.
