Keynote Speaker. Speech Coach. Public Speaking Trainer.
IGNITE YOUR CHARISMATIC PRESENCE
with Eleni Kelakos CSP, The Speaker Whisperer®
You have a product to sell, a service to provide, a message to deliver... a big idea that can make a big difference in people’s lives.
If only...
You could share your big idea with more clarity and confidence.
You weren’t afraid you might fail to deliver on the speaking platform, in the crucial conversation, in the sales meeting.
You were able to own the room as a speaker and leader.
That’s where I come in. I use theatre tools to help you be real, relaxed and confident when you speak and lead—techniques learned as a young actress in New York City and Los Angeles struggling to perform at my best in high-stakes auditions. In my more than two decades as a speech coach, keynote speaker, and presentation skills trainer, I’ve helped countless executives ignite and expand their charismatic presence.
Your voice matters. Use your words to change your world.
