Bio

These days it is essential to be able to communicate clearly and effectively. My goal is to make the ways you speak and write easier and smoother. I’m Jim Lowe. I can help you to express your ideas simply and clearly, express your stories and opinions confidently. If you are shy, unsure of how to say things, say too much, talk too fast, freeze up while presenting or become tongue-tied, I can help.

These days it is essential to be able to communicate clearly and effectively. My goal is to make the ways you speak and write easier and smoother. I’m Jim Lowe. I can help you to express your ideas simply and clearly, express your stories and opinions confidently. If you are shy, unsure of how to say things, say too much, talk too fast, freeze up while presenting or become tongue-tied, I can help.

I cam help you confidently present your ideas to individuals, groups and over the internet.
I work along side you as your tutor, practice partner and coach, so you get the results you want and need. We do that by addressing and overcoming your fears and concerns, building your confidence, and improving your speaking style. Along the way you will learn how to better relate to your audience (whether 1 or 100), use gestures and body language, apply the principals of pace, rhythm and pauses, and even employ visual aids when you need to.

You and I will do this through practice sessions that will give you an opportunity to learn easily, feel better about what and how you speak, and give you positive reinforcement of your personal strengths .

My background is as a certified Master Trainer, Instructional Designer and Coach. I have degrees in psychology and communications, and over 15 years of experience helping people practice clear and concise communications for corporate clients (ATT,IBM,Coca Cola) ,non-profit groups(associations, employment agencies) and educational institutions (Michigan State University, University of Missouri, Washington University). I have worked with grade school, college, and graduate students, as well as young/old adults all seeking a better way to tell their stories on their ideas and opinions?

As a tutor, I have helped over 300 people so far, and I can help you.

Business

Business

For 25+ years I've been working with corporations and nonprofits, So I am intimately familiar with standard business practices and expectations. My clients have included AT&T, IBM, CitiCorp, General Motors, RJ Reynolds, Cadbury/7UP and many others. Not-for-profits and educational institutions included NAED Nat Assoc of Elec Distributors, MERS/Goodwill, SIDS Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, Univ of MO-St.Louis, and Washington Univ in St.Louis, among others.
Project Management

Project Management

Led major corporate communications programs that involved performance improvement, selling skills, culture change, new product intros, and more. This involved supervising staff activities, assessing quality of output, scheduling timelines and milestones, tracking expenses and salaries, progress reporting, and client interface and negotiations, including complex billing problems. I earned the Maritz Profit Achievement award for 5 consecutive years and was subsequently promoted.
Public Speaking

Public Speaking

I have over twenty five years experience as executive speech coach, corporate media producer and in-house narrator for clients such as AT&T, IBM, GM among others. Projects included slideshows, videos, and meetings on topics such as new product introductions, major corporate reorganizations, and sales training. I inspired and educated executive and mid-management employees in expressing themselves credibly and authoritatively. As Creative Manager, I led, motivated, and inspired teams in designing and building annual and quarterly sales and management meetings, serving as interpreter/liaison between clients and team to make sure that messages were communicated as intended. I especially enjoy working with non-native English speakers, helping them surmount the challenges of communicating in American English while thinking in their native language.
