Jen HB, Executive Director, Non-Profit

It was a privilege to work alongside you and, together, challenge the status quo and create forward momentum for so many. I learned a lot from you...

And Introducing: YOU

Public Speaking training from an actor’s perspective

Ineffective public speaking skills impact meetings, training sessions, sales, networking, mentoring, opportunities to influence, morale, etc.

 

And Introducing: YOU is an intensive 3-hr workshop that calls upon my decades of experience as a professional actress. I have run the workshop over 80 times in the past 13 years to a total population over over 4500 people. And while I developed the program for a research team of extreme introverts, the target audience has expanded to include interns, new hires, emerging leaders, salespeople, executives, everyone!

​

Receive personalized coaching, actionable strategies, and the essential “Costume of Confidence” to conquer public speaking fears and speak with authority.

About Naeemah Elias

Chameleon & Changemaker

I started my career as a professional actress. When I coach my clients about the value of a winding road, I'm speaking from a lifetime of experience!!  I worked my way out of poverty south of Chicago and earned a psychology degree from Harvard. After an acting tour as a puppeteer, and few years on Boston stages - I moved on to my next career: Motherhood. I quickly became a Single-Mom with 3 kids under 8, and I got serious about building my career! I mastered the art of mobility. I spent years learning and teaching, so those around me could gain the benefit of my experience. I took on big, complex problems, and surrounded myself with young talent. I designed development programs, created training modules, and fought against inequity - while I stood up corporate processes and made the world around me more efficient. 

​

With Elias Presence Ventures, I've expanded my reach so I can make a bigger difference on a bigger stage. I want to tackle inequity through the lens of communication on every possible pathway: corporations, non-profits, community centers, governments, schools, etc... I am so excited for this adventure, and all of the friends who have committed to navigating this path with me.

​

Let's develop the FUTURE together!
