Listen to an inspiring interview with a true expert in communication and public speaking! Jacqueline Farrington is a TEDx Senior Speaker coach and nowadays also coach for CEOs and senior leaders for big clients such as Amazon and Microsoft to train them in a better authentic communication.

In the first part of this interview, we are discussing what you can do to be more authentic and build up self-confidence to be yourself when giving a speech or presentation.


Jacqueline’s coaching approach is it to create a safe space in which people explore how it feels to take risks and to fail – a method that is also used by professional sports athletes.


You will learn also:

  • 3 practical and funny examples how you can train yourself to make mistakes when preparing for a presentations

  • How you know that you are prepared well
