In this two-hour online session, communication coach Martin Barnes will guide you step by step through the Intentional Communication Framework — from mindset, to strategy, to message, to performance, to design. Imagine 5 layers of Lego blocks ascending like stairs. Each building on the last, giving you a complete toolkit to present with confidence and clarity.
This is a content-rich, lecture-style session: Martin will share core skills at every stage of the framework, illustrated with real case studies from founders, leaders, and professionals who have pitched under pressure.
You’ll hear how:
- A nervous founder won a startup competition through purpose and performance.
- A quick-thinking entrepreneur secured an investor with a two-minute phone pitch.
- A brand landed a major retail deal by shifting from vision to proof at the right moment.
- A speaker transformed a three-minute slot into a global speaking tour.
- Two CEOs at the same conference revealed the stark difference between a lecture that fell flat and a story-driven talk that landed with energy.
By the end of the session, you’ll have a clear understanding of the five building blocks of intentional communication, plus practical techniques you can immediately apply to your own pitches, presentations, and talks.
This session is ideal for founders, leaders, and professionals who need to pitch ideas, present with impact, or communicate clearly under pressure. And if you're one of the Slush'd Pitch Finalists then you should absolutely get booked in!
