This is about you.
The best way to build visibility at work is to build a practice of visibility-building communications. These practices fortify the communication you are already engaged in and pave your path to senior leadership.
Developing your teams’ ability to communicate better always pays off in terms of reducing misunderstandings, increasing engagement and personal responsibility, and building trust. (Also makes work more meaningful and rewarding.)
Strong communication stacked on top of clear values is the shortest path to a healthy culture, where everyone feels heard, understood, and valued. I can work with you individually through coaching, or your team(s) through workshops.

The Visibility Master Class
As technology continues to disrupt the work, leaders are expected to achieve results amid ambiguity and change. Effective leadership requires visibility in order to influence.
This intense training is for mid-level managers and IC’s who are preparing to advance to senior leadership. We will address ways to fortify your ability to influence outcomes.
Gain the advanced communication tools that allow leaders to speak with impact, answer tough questions without anxiety, and succeed with intimidating audiences.
Communicate Better with Anyone!
We kick off this foundational training by assigning Laura’s proprietary communication style assessment as pre-work. This quick assessment empowers people to communicate more inclusively as they better understand the four different approaches to communication and how to accommodate to each style.
Geared toward mid-career IC’s and managers, we go right the point of how speaking with purpose, connecting to impact, listening to learn, and structuring your statement transforms your message into influence and visibility.
Speak with Impact (and Executive Presence)
Building on inclusive communication taught in “Communicate Better with Anyone”, this training brings everyone up to the next level of leadership through speaking with impact.
This is the skill that paves the road to senior leadership. Speaking with clear purpose, the correct level of context, and with structure helps the audience to retain the message and thus remember the speaker!
We also cover the mindset to succeed with intimidating audiences and show up in any meeting with executive presence.
Culture-Building Leadership
A 2018 Gallup study on core values found that “A values-driven culture can fuel organizational growth and attract top talent. Talented people want to work for an organization with a thriving culture.” We explore how values drive the culture and how virtual work conversations are either building the culture, or weakening it.
A healthy culture is one where everyone feels heard, understood, and valued. Leaders who communicate clearly with purpose and connect with their audiences are the ones who build the culture that results in talent retention.
"Laura Camacho's Leader Communication for Project Managers was the best workshop on communication I've ever attended – and that's after years of working at top Silicon Valley companies including Hewlett-Packard and Sun Microsystems. The content was especially pertinent to engineers like me. She keeps you busy the whole day so there's no being bored (plus you meet interesting people.) Highly recommended."

Testimonials
"I asked Laura Camacho to coach me on building my business through networking. Prior to that I wasn't getting the results I wanted. Before working with Laura I felt totally awkward at events and wasn't getting any traction. In our work together I learned how to become comfortable with uncomfortable situations, how to meet people and build relationships, which are the foundation of my business. I highly recommend Laura Camacho's coaching for anyone wanting to move forward in their careers."

I was fortunate to be on the receiving end of a coaching session with Laura. She was very effective in teaching me ways to overcome cultural barriers in communication and be more effective. Laura is also an inspiring motivator who helps me to achieve my professional goals. She is a wonderful coach and mentor with empathy and leadership skills, and I highly recommend her!

"Laura is a great coach - in just two sessions (the first off camera) I found her to be incredibly disarming supportive and the professional mentor I've always needed to walk me through professional challenges (opportunities in disguise).”
