SPEAK TO LEAD
Command The Room.
Connect With The Audience.
Close The Deal.
Laura works with C-level executives, VPs/Directors, business owners, and aspiring executives to establish a strong brand that commands respect, projects confidence, and magnifies their influence to create a lasting legacy.
The Stakes Are High!
When you are at the top, the world is watching. As a leader, you set the tone and you set expectations, so every word matters and how you present yourself matters even more.
Listen in as Laura explains why there’s no room for miscommunication in your message, because in order to motivate people they must believe in your ability to lead.
What’s Holding You Back?
You're constantly under scrutiny and need to unite everyone in the organization to successfully execute a unified vision.
You have the technical knowledge but lack the presence that commands the room and makes you the obvious choice for the next level.
You need to be more publicly visible but battle imposter syndrome and lack the natural charisma to confidently “nail it” every time.
You're stuck in “the expert’s curse” and have trouble translating your expertise in a way that persuades, inspires, and motivates.
You don’t know how to adapt your communication style to get through to so many different people while still being 100% authentically YOU.

Here’s What clients Say
Confidence, Focus, and Credibility. That's what I got from Laura. Everything was catered toward my professional objectives. I would recommend Laura to any mid-level executive or above, looking for those practical gems to get to the next level!
Dr. Sicola's Vocal Impact workshop is a game changer. I learned more in her workshop than I ever expected! From prepping for interactions to simply knowing how to find my breath, it's the most informative workshop I've ever taken.
I took the advice you gave for introducing myself and put it in to action. Today we had a meet and greet with Executives at Virtua. When I ran in to them hours later the overwhelming majority remembered my name!!!
I often get caught up in the content and “proving” that I know my business, but now I realize that projecting confidence is about so much more than content.
I loved having Laura as a guest on my show, Thrive LOUD. Not only is she a true expert in the field of leadership communication and influence, but she's a great storyteller, and even got me to laugh out LOUD on my own show. If you are looking for training or coaching (or a show guest) to take […]
Laura has a niche ability to quickly identify areas of challenge, and provide in a diplomatic, consumable manner, just the right amount of constructive feedback. Through one week of rapid fire sessions, I gained keen insight into the critical traits executives are seeking in interviews, and developed the skills to tell my story confidently and persuasively.
I came to Dr. Laura Sicola to prepare for an upcoming job interview. It was truly a mind-opening and life-changing experience. I will never approach an interview – or my career – in the same way again. Highly recommended!
Laura is a phenomenal communications coach. She challenges you to implement different communication strategies and techniques, which leads to effective communication and ultimately better results. Her sessions should be required for anyone in a management or leadership position.
Laura helped me build confidence to go into situations and deliver results. She knows how to get into my mind and into the situation, and frame it in a way that pulls out key concepts, so I can think through every situation and how to be better.
Laura worked with me on my campaign video and did a great job helping me develop the arc of the message, loosen up, and talk more like I do in real life. It was my first video production and I couldn't have done it without her.
Laura is a pro's pro – there is a reason she's got millions of views for her videos and is sought after for interviews. She is very straightforward in her approach, easy to understand and most important she cares about YOUR audience. Beyond her great style and being super approachable her message is unique and brilliant.
It’s more than language. I learned to think and speak more strategically. That was the key.
Laura is smart and funny! I learned a lot, had fun, and am ready to put into practice all that I learned.
Laura's entire presence commands attention; just observing Laura is training in itself.
After your coaching in preparation for my TEDxSMU talk, an audience member commented, “Obama couldn't have written or delivered a better talk.” Thank you!
I feel empowered by better understanding the importance of personal conviction in effective communication. I figured out what was working for me and what was not, and how to fix it.
Laura’s Unique Approach
What creates the frustrating gap between what you think you said and what they think they heard?
As a cognitive linguist, Laura brings a unique perspective and approach to executive communication coaching.
With a deep understanding of the relationship between what you say, how you say it, and the 3 Levels of Impact you have on your audience, Laura works with you to align your message content and delivery style with your leadership goals so you hear “YES” way more often.
Authenticity is a key element of Laura’s executive coaching. She helps you get clear on your desired personal brand and then reverse engineers it to identify and prioritize what aspects of communication you need to work on so that others consistently recognize it and see you as a leader they want to follow.
Whether virtual or in-person (board presentation, media interview, team meeting, performance review, conference keynote, webinar, investor pitch, etc.), Laura helps you master the Three C’s: Command the room (or screen), Connect with the audience, and Close the deal.
