We agree the focus in your live session
Every coaching session ends with a clear target: a specific behaviour, situation or dimension to practise before we meet again.
The Studio
Where the work continues between sessions.
The Studio is your private rehearsal space. After every live session I set what you practise there, guided by your Communication Signature, and we review the results in the next session.
What it is — and what it isn't
It is
- A private space to rehearse meetings, presentations, interviews and difficult conversations like the ones on your calendar.
- Directed by me: your Studio task is set after each session.
- Assessed across the six dimensions.
- Connected to your live coaching.
It isn't
- A course.
- A language app.
- A library of generic exercises.
- A replacement for coaching.
The technology carries the practice. The judgement, feedback and direction stay with me.
How The Studio works
Live coaching sets the direction. The Studio carries the work between sessions.
The coaching does not stop when the video call ends. The Studio, your private rehearsal space, is where you turn insight into behaviour — with a clear loop from session to session.
I set your Studio task
Based on your Communication Signature and that week's goal, I choose the scenarios you rehearse and the phrasing to work on, recorded in your workbook and session summary.
You practise realistic situations during the week
You rehearse conversations, meetings, presentations and difficult exchanges in a private, interactive environment — whenever your schedule allows.
You get structured feedback
Each rehearsal generates clear observations tied to the six dimensions: what landed, what to adjust, and the exact language to try next.
We review and advance in the next session
We look at what changed, correct any drift, and set the next focus. The live session and The Studio keep feeding each other.
What changes week to week
The Studio is not a fixed course. It evolves as you do, so every practice session is relevant to where you are now.
See ways to work with me- The focus shifts as you improve
- A dimension that was limiting you becomes stable; we move the attention to the next most valuable change.
- Scenarios chosen for what is coming up
- Board updates, client calls, promotions, difficult conversations — I choose the scenarios closest to what is actually on your calendar.
- Pressure practice for the harder moments
- A separate set of scenarios for the challenge in the meeting, the difficult update and the pushback from a senior stakeholder.
- Your language toolkit expands
- Coaching notes suggest phrases from each rehearsal, and you keep what is worth keeping in your phrasebook.
What's inside
What you will find when you sign in.
Rehearsal scenarios
Realistic professional situations, each with its context, objectives and the people in the room, and the dimensions it is designed to exercise.
A realistic counterpart
Speak or type your replies; the other side of the conversation responds in role, so the exchange develops as it would at work.
Coaching notes after each rehearsal
A short summary, then observations by dimension: what worked, what to change, and the line from your own reply it refers to.
Useful phrases
A handful of ready-to-use phrases that would have strengthened that particular conversation, each with a note on when to use it.
Executive rewrite
Paste your own wording and see it in a senior executive register, without your meaning being changed.
Phrasebook and vocabulary
Keep the wording worth keeping — from rehearsals, from our sessions or from your own reading — and the terms you want to own.
Pressure practice
A set of scenarios for the harder moments — the challenge in the meeting, the difficult update, the pushback from a senior stakeholder.

Your Communication Signature
Your assessment report across the six dimensions, with your strengths, your development priorities and quotations from your own responses.
Development and progress
What matters now, what to practise, and movement over time — built only from the evidence recorded for you.
The six dimensions
Every rehearsal produces observations tied to these dimensions — what landed, what to adjust, and the exact language to try next.
- Clarity
- Can people follow your thinking the first time?
- Credibility
- Does your communication carry the weight of your expertise?
- Integrity
- Do you communicate your position honestly, precisely and without unnecessary overstatement?
- Composure
- Can you maintain authority when challenged, interrupted or put under pressure?
- Influence
- Can your communication move a decision, recommendation or stakeholder?
- Adaptability
- Can you adjust your communication to different people and situations without losing your own voice?
The Studio and your workbook
Your workbook is the record
Your diagnostic, structures, language bank and progress.
The Studio is where you practise it
We review both in every session.
Access
The Studio is included with every ongoing programme — Weekly Express, Deep Weekly, the 12-Week Intensive and the Strategic Communication Programme. It is not sold separately.

About The Studio.
Usually two or three short rehearsals of 10 to 20 minutes, fitted around your week. There is no clock in The Studio — take the time you need.
Partly. AI plays the counterpart in each rehearsal and drafts your coaching notes by dimension, working from the scenario, what you said, and — when you speak — how you said it: pace, pauses, pitch and volume. Your accent is never assessed. The direction is mine: I set your Studio task, and we review the results together in your next session.
Spoken or written rehearsal. When you speak, your browser measures your delivery; the audio stays on your device and only the measurements are saved. Spoken replies are transcribed by your browser's speech service. Your replies and coaching notes are stored securely with your account. Only you and I can see them — no other client, and no one at your organisation.
Not at present. It is designed to work alongside live sessions.
