Speaking anxiety can be addressed through ongoing training and support.
Every year, millions of young professionals across North America will assume new leadership roles and are required to communicate more than ever. Customer calls, meetings, pitches, team managementâthese new leaders have to speak publicly, ButâŠ
Research shows that around 70% of them will experience ongoing feelings of nervousness, anxiety and self-doubt triggered by public speaking [1].Â
Left unmanaged, that anxiety can lead your team to:
- Avoid leadership opportunitiesâ
- Experience burnoutâ
- Miss work
- Quit altogetherÂ
In addition to the negative impact on mental health, it can also affect how employees communicate with peers, management, customers, and clients. Putting them at risk of being branded as nervous, unprepared, untrustworthy, or lacking in credibility.Â
As a result, each year it’s estimated that organizations lose $11,076 per person, per year stemming from lost or reduced productivity in the workplace [2].

We can help your team improve their speaking confidence.
Speak for Success is a leadership development platform created specifically to help emerging leaders improve (1) their level of speaking confidence as well as (2) their technical communication skills so they can perform better at work.
We do this by providing our members with ongoing opportunities to practice their communication skills in a fun, safe and supportive environment with the guidance of a professional communications coach & facilitator.
- Increase their level of speaking confidence
- Improve their ability to communicate more effectively with colleagues and peers
- Have a greater willingness to speak up and take on leadership opportunities that require speaking
The result? A more confident, skilled, and diverse pipeline of talent.


Ideally, communications training should start before an employee begins managing others. But that doesnât happen often. According to a study by HBR, the average age managers first receive any training is 42, even though most first-time managers have an average age of 30.Â

Our approach


Public speaking can be intimidating, especially in front of peers and colleagues. That’s why we set a tone of safety, casualness, fun and support at the beginning of every session we deliver. Our goal is for the team to get out of their comfort zone, embrace mistakes, and be ready to have a lot of fun and do a lot of laughing along the way.
Throughout our program, we emphasize the importance of practice and encourage teams to re-frame the way they think about public speaking by adopting a growth-mindset; understanding that it is a skill that can be developed and strengthened over time through ongoing training. Peer feedback is a key element of this workshop which builds a sense of trust, support, and camaraderie among the team.
By the end of this training, teams are eager to start applying what they’ve learned at meetings, on calls, and during presentations. They also become more open to performance feedback.
Weâre proud to be supported by an incredible community of funding partners.
