A Different Kind of Speaking Workshop
Before becoming a speaker and communication coach, I spent years studying and performing as an actor. That background shapes the way I teach presentation skills.
In my workshops, you won’t just sit and listen. Through discussion, demonstration, and interactive exercises, you’ll explore techniques that help you communicate with more clarity, confidence, and presence. Sessions are designed to be supportive and energizing so you can stretch beyond your comfort zone and discover new ways to express your ideas.
Most workshops are intentionally limited to small groups so participants receive personal attention and meaningful feedback.
Clear, Practical Tools Our Team Could Use Immediately
“I highly recommend Eleni. It was an absolute pleasure working with her. From the start, our team responded to her thoughtful approach and quickly opened up, thanks to her confident, approachable, and kind demeanor. Her methods were clear, easy to follow, and immediately applicable to our work.”

One of the Best Professional Seminars We’ve Attended
“Eleni’s Think Like an Actor, Speak Like a Pro training exceeded our expectations. She promised to give our leaders the tools they need to present with great confidence and impact—and she delivered! Her charisma, brilliance, and ability to take total ownership of a room kept us engaged all morning long. Several participants said this was one of the best professional seminars they have ever attended."

Create Your Last Lecture
2.5 Day In-Person LEGACY KEYNOTE INTENSIVE
+ INDIVIDUAL COACHING
If you could speak just once more to your ideal audience, who would they be—and what would you most want to share with them?
Whether you’re developing a new keynote or looking to elevate and sharpen an existing one, imagining your “Last Lecture” can bring an entirely new level of clarity, meaning, and impact to your message.
After years—perhaps decades—devoted to your work, you’ve accumulated more than expertise. You’ve developed perspectives, stories, hard-won wisdom, and perhaps a philosophy, system, or idea worth sharing.
Imagine Your Last Lecture is an immersive 2½-day-plus-coaching experience designed to help you reflect deeply on what you’ve learned, uncover what matters most, and shape those discoveries into a powerful legacy keynote.
And you don’t need to be nearing retirement to do this work. Wherever you are in your career, asking yourself What would I say if this were my last opportunity? can help you cut through the noise and get to the heart of what you most want your audience to understand, feel, and remember.
- Two 60-minute individual coaching sessions before the intensive to begin uncovering and shaping your message
- A highly focused, small-group 2½-day in-person intensive
- Guided reflection to uncover the ideas, experiences, and wisdom you most want to share
- Help identifying your audience and the central throughline of your message
- The opportunity to share a portion of your developing keynote with the group on the final day and receive personalized coaching and feedback
- Two 60-minute individual coaching sessions after the intensive to continue developing and refining your keynote
You’ll leave the intensive with the architecture of your keynote firmly in place—a clearly defined audience and central message, a strong throughline, key ideas and stories, and a well-developed framework from which to build the finished presentation.
Participation is limited to a very small group. This intensive is typically offered once per year in the Spring. Dates TBD.

Small Groups. Real Practice. Personal Feedback.
Unlike large lecture-style training programs, these workshops are intentionally designed as interactive learning experiences.
You’ll practice speaking, experiment with new techniques, and receive thoughtful feedback in a supportive environment.
