Lighthouse Communications founder Anne Ricketts shares 5 tips for women on how to develop a more commanding executive presence when communicating. These tips enable women to get their message across with more persuasion and impact. This is especially critical as more and more companies in the male-dominated fields of science, tech, engineering, and math (STEM) need women to be fully engaged, especially as leaders. Making strong communication skills more important than ever.

WHO WE ARE:
Over the years, Lighthouse Communications has had the opportunity to work with a variety of clients from start-ups and individual professional speakers, to Women and LGBTQIA+ groups, and those underrepresented in tech. Through our workshops we teach participants strategies to create more inclusive spaces in meetings and presentations so all voices are heard. The LHC team is proud to represent individuals from a variety of backgrounds because we know it makes our team, curriculum and workshops better when we can identify and connect with our diverse audiences.

Most importantly - no matter a client’s level of experience, background or story, we are here to help strengthen the voices of those that have something to say and need to be heard. Contact us at [email protected] for information about workshops and coaching.
