Be clear and persuasive in the moments that matter

Presentation + Communication Coaching

for leaders ready to level up

You got where you are today because you're great at what you do.

And yet, the results you can deliver aren't the only things that matter anymore. Not at this point in your career.

At this level, you're being evaluated by how well you communicate your ideas as much as you are for your results.

You're competing to get the best projects, get the funding, get the next promotion on the on the basis of your ability to persuade others to act.

No one teaches you how to do that. It's like you're just supposed to figure it out.

Maybe you've tried to figure out persuasive presenting yourself.

And you're wondering why it still feels so hard.

Executives are tuning out your presentation, even though you gave tons of important details

They say "you need more executive presence" when you bring up your next promotion

You're getting interrupted and talked over, while others take credit for your ideas

It feels like you're spending more time preparing presentations than actually doing the work

You can't figure out which slides are the important ones, but you know you have too many

You know the best way forward but you can't get the support to implement your idea

It doesn't have to feel hard. And, you don't have to figure it out alone.

hi, I'm your coach, Sharon Stolt

I started Clear Influence because I saw so many smart, talented professionals struggle to explain their great ideas, and as a result, lose out on influence, career growth, and income.

I've spent over 20 years as a trainer and facilitator for Fortune 500 companies, startups, and everything in between, so I know how to craft and deliver a message that inspires leaders to act.

As a corporate VP myself, I delivered dozens of executive presentations, and I learned how to quickly pull together the next deck while delivering on this quarter's objectives.

As a Talent Management leader, I saw how often poor "executive presence" prevented high-performing leaders from getting that next promotion or bonus.

Now, I help experienced corporate leaders and company founders get out of their own way, present what they know clearly, and get the influence, and income, they deserve.
