Madeline Schwarz has been called a career therapist, lifesaver and secret weapon.

She solves one problem that every business and employee has in common: to clearly and concisely articulate your vision, communicate what you do and why other people should care. 

She’s coached individuals and teams on presentation skills, storytelling and team dynamics. Her clients have included Tommy Hilfiger, Mastercard, Etsy and The Jewish Museum.

When she's not dreaming up ways to make communication more fun, you can find her hanging out in Prospect Park in Brooklyn, roaming art museums and building cardboard forts with her 9-year old son.

On this episode, Madeline speaks with Brooks Brown about her reasons for starting a business to advocate for quiet leaders.
