Hi I'm
Lorraine Brunning

I have spent the last 30 years working as a Communications Skills Specialist and Business Coach.

I help people in business communicate more effectively; whether that means having more authority and concision in the way they message; being able to influence more effectively; demonstrate a greater bandwidth of leadership behaviours; be compelling when presenting or pitching or just create better relationships – operationally and strategically.

I have designed and delivered countless communication skills programmes through the years including numerous focused on building leadership capabilities.

Plus, I have worked extensively with senior professionals around the world helping them with their keynote speeches, their conference presentations, their TED talk preparation and their business pitches.
