Access 2 Perspectives – Conversations. All about Open Science Communication

Knowing your audience and making an impact - A conversation with Natira McDermott


Listen Later

Natira McDermott is a public speaking coach who helps her  clients create successful businesses by dropping perfectionism and embracing their own compelling visibility. Despite winning her first  high school debate, Natira spent most of her life avoiding an audience.  (The irony of her being a public speaking coach is not lost on her.)

Natira shares with us key skills that people (and researchers) who speak in public should have to become visible by speaking like themselves instead of a textbook. Prior to her coaching career, Natira spent 17 years at advertising and media agencies where she led teams in over 150 pitches and coached dozens of executive teams. Natira is based in New York City and provides individual coaching, executive leadership coaching,  presentation, and public speaking workshops.
