Strategic Communication Programme · C1 Executive Edition

Precision under pressure.

For professionals whose expertise is ahead of their English — so the room hears what you actually know. Twelve weeks, twenty-four private 50-minute sessions, two per week, with a companion workbook included. Sessions can be completed within fourteen weeks to allow for travel and peak work periods.

Investment

€3,900 (or 3 monthly payments of €1,350)

Support Structure

Two private 50-minute sessions each week, held by video — Zoom by default, with Microsoft Teams or Google Meet on request. Built on the six dimensions: Clarity, Credibility, Integrity, Composure, Influence and Adaptability.

01

Who This Is Designed For

For senior professionals working at C1 whose expertise is ahead of how precisely they can express it under pressure.

Particularly suited to:

  • Senior professionals whose ideas land less sharply in English than in their first language
  • Specialists stepping into roles where the stakes — and the scrutiny — are higher
  • Professionals who perform well prepared, but lose precision when the conversation turns
  • Anyone who has outgrown what general English coaching can offer

02

What the Programme Focuses On

The work is specific to how you communicate when it matters — not general fluency.

  • Precision and register in high-stakes settings
  • Structuring arguments so they land first time
  • Spontaneous speaking in meetings and Q&A
  • Rescue language — recovering and reformulating in real time
  • Professional vocabulary for your field

03

How the Twelve Weeks Run

The programme follows one method throughout: Diagnose → Structure → Language Upgrades → Realistic Practice → Feedback Loops.

  • A diagnostic session opens the programme — it confirms the right edition and sets your written plan
  • Two private 50-minute sessions each week, built around that plan
  • A companion workbook carries the work between sessions
  • Practice is realistic: the meetings, questions and pushback you actually face
  • Feedback is specific, evidenced and immediately usable

Sessions can be completed within fourteen weeks, so travel and peak work periods do not cost you momentum.

04

Where It Begins

Every programme starts with a diagnostic session. It confirms that this edition — rather than the Advanced Executive Edition — is the right fit, and it sets the written plan the twelve weeks follow. Nothing is assumed; the programme is built from evidence of how you communicate now.

05

Investment

The C1 Executive Edition is €3,900, payable in full at the start of the programme or in three monthly payments of €1,350. Invoices are available on request for company expensing.

12 weeks · 24 sessions · Twice weekly

Start with a conversation.

Every programme starts with a short, direct call. You tell me what you're working toward, I listen for what's actually in the way, and we decide together whether this is the right fit.
