Andrew has made a career teaching people how to marry their natural style with proven techniques in interpersonal communication, negotiation, leadership, and sales.
Andrew combines his many years of experience as a salesperson and executive with his decades of stage performance experience. This makes him uniquely equipped to teach people the skills they need to convey confidence, inspire trust, build relationships, and communicate effectively.
Everyone brings their own unique skills, experiences, and concerns along with them. Andrew's goal is to meet you where you are, erode your self-doubt, and teach you skills that will highlight your natural strengths and lead you to become high-impact leaders and communicators.
During your first session, expect to spend some time uncovering what's most important to you and what's holding you back. You'll set goals that are unique to you and work towards them until you feel more comfortable and confident. Of course, sometimes, goals change. Andrew will adjust with you as necessary.
Let's start by admitting that change comes with work. Andrew's coaching is based on learning skills and techniques that will make you a more powerful communicator and leader. To master them, Andrew will teach you how to practice your new skills until they become permanent tools in your arsenal.
We are all communicating constantly – both verbally and non-verbally – whether we intend to or not. Most of us, though, are unaware of how we’re being perceived by the people around us, and when we communicate things unintentionally we risk being misunderstood or even disliked.
Communication coaching teaches people to be aware of how and what they’re communicating in order to confidently present their best and most authentic selves and build lasting, quality relationships.
Almost any verbal or non-verbal communication skill can be coached and, with practice, improved. Our main areas of focus are:
Many people require coaching in many of these areas, so each client receives their own personalized curriculum.

Communication coaching – coaching in general, really – is highly personal. Having taken a variety of coaching in my career, I’m sensitive to this and want to make sure that we feel comfortable with each other before making a commitment.
During our first meeting (usually about 30 minutes), you’ll have an opportunity to describe the communication challenges you’re experiencing and the goals you hope to achieve. I’ll strive to make the session enlightening and helpful so your time feels well-spent. Afterward, if we feel it’s a good fit, I’ll propose a short-term plan (usually 3-6 months) to help you reach your goals.
Some people feel the progress they want after our first meeting. Some continue to take coaching for months or years. Every individual is unique, and so is every coaching plan.
Coaching fees vary depending on the kind of coaching you want and the amount of support you think you’ll need. We always discuss pricing thoroughly before making a decision. If you’d like to discuss it first, please get in touch.
