I want your communication to be as MIGHTY as your IDEAS! - John Bates

John Bates'​ Executive Speaking Success is your best resource for more effective Leadership Communications, strategic messaging, TED-Format talks and more. John’s expertise in the TED format, leadership presence and great presentation and pitching skills arises from his comprehensive, integrated approach. This not only makes you a far better speaker and presenter, it makes you far more effective everywhere in your life.

We see success in leadership, sales, management and more generally, in business and life itself, as a function of great communication. Executives at NASA, Accenture, Johnson & Johnson and other global organizations agree that John’s methodology is quite probably the best and most effective approach to leadership, communication, persuasion and influence that they have ever experienced. People say our training is unlike any training they’ve ever experienced before.

You will amazed by the clarity, elegance and immediate actionability of the ESS methodology. Originally created for TED and TEDx speakers our training is based in the fundamental evolutionary biology and neurophysiology of human communication, connection and interaction.

This focus on underlying principles allows you to see not only what works, but why it works and then easily apply the principles to your own unique style. See why leaders at organizations like NASA, Accenture, Johnson & Johnson and many others have embedded into their cultures both John's unique public speaking training, storytelling expertise and his effective leadership communication principles; allowing them to more successfully lead, influence, sell and manage all while inspiring their employees through great storytelling, leadership presence and an understanding of the neuroscience underlying great communication and leadership.

Prospective tenants include tenants such as Dollar General, Starbucks, O’Reilly Auto Parts, Kroger, CVS Pharmacy, and others.
