Being an effective speaker is the key to your success, giving you credibility, visibility, and setting you apart as a leader.
If you are an emerging or middle manager, fast track your public speaking skills with one-on-one coaching and learn to:
Build your profile
Demonstrate your knowledge and insights
Be recognised as a confident leader
Get that promotion
Your improved speaking skills will see you taking on positions with greater responsibility and remuneration, and you will be able to deliver without wasting energy worrying about speeches and presentations.
I bring over thirty years of experience in the performing arts—working as an actor, writer, director, and producer—to my work with clients.
I have worked with both established professional actors and emerging artists undergoing tertiary training, and I thrive on the challenges of finding ways to have each and every individual bring their words to life, to engage their audience, and to tell a story.
The same principles and techniques I have worked with throughout my career have direct application to empowering you to become the public speaker you want to become.
I am an active member of SouthBank Toastmasters, and in 2022 and 2023 was awarded First Place in the Brisbane District Humorous Speech Contest.
But Effective Public Speaking is not about me!
As a public speaking coach, I have one focus – getting you the results you want.

I have been enjoying my time with Lewis. From someone who is afraid to stand in front of the crowd to someone who is quite comfortable to speak in front of a group of people, I have seen great improvement in my public speaking since joining Lewis' class in 2023. I will highly recommend Lewis to people who want to improve their public speaking.

Brisbane's Leading Public Speaking Coach
One-on-one coaching is suitable for both inexperienced and possibly nervous newcomers who are ready to face their fears, as well experienced speakers who want to take their speaking to the next level.
You might be one of those people who doesn’t like their voice or feels that it is ‘unattractive’ – an opinion that is rarely accurate! Or you may simply take your voice for granted!
Explore how the amazing combination of breath, resonance and articulation that is your voice, reconnect with your authentic voice and its untapped power to grab your audience’s attention and have them with you from start to finish!
Becoming the centre of attention can often see you feeling awkward, unsure if you are standing the right way or making the right gestures. And the more you start to worry about this, the more it distracts you and your audience!
You will work on creating an organic connection between these elements and your body, as well as directly addressing any distracting habits!
Just as with the acquisition of any new skill set, it can take time to integrate all the elements. And this is something that only comes with practice. Which is why the Effective Public Speaking focuses so heavily on getting up and doing it!
Every program is designed to give you plenty of time to work on the practical application of your new skills, mostly with content that has direct application to the achievement of your public speaking goals.
In addition, fortnightly drop-in sessions give plenty of opportunities to simply get used to speaking in front of people!
We will explore the issue of ‘nerves’, as it is something that impacts on almost every client to some extent – and in many cases, it prevents them from realising their potential!
Unlike other public speaking coaches I do not offer tips and tricks.
By understanding your instrument and focusing on why you are speaking, you are able to focus on speaking deliberately, harnessing your nervous every to fuel the effective delivery of your message.

Working with Lewis not only was an absolutely nurturing educational experience but also extremely delightful and humorous. I am someone who aims to work in the legal field, which is an industry with high expectations on public speaking and interpersonal skills. Knowing this ultimate goal, Lewis offered a goal-centred and value-oriented approach for fostering my speaking abilities. We engaged in multiple exercises that involved controlling my breathing, confidently moving around an environment, and using different types of vocal expressions. Thank you deeply!
I've been speaking for some time now and even attend Toastmasters, but knew I could enhance my skills. I wanted to polish how I presented to be more professional and engaging. Lewis began by helping me re-construct my message. He helped me remove the unnecessary pieces and left me with a clear, engaging and humorous speech to deliver. He then taught me how to deliver with more impact and authority which is so valuable. I loved working with Lewis and would recommend working with him if you are looking at improving how you speak and deliver presentations.
I've enjoyed working with Lewis over the past couple of months. I'd highly recommend that someone who's looking to improve their public speaking engage Lewis's service.

Lewis is awesome to work with. I found his approach is fun, effective, and personalised. Every professional would benefit from his expertise to captivate audiences of diverse backgrounds. Thank you, Lewis.
