Tongue-tied spells trouble in business.

Every A/E/C professional knows the moment when technical skills aren't enough in client meetings.

You're in a shortlisted presentation, and you or a team member are trying to lead a tough conversation.

You look around and see frustration, fidgeting, and faces that scream trouble.😮

You know, at the moment, communication is the differentiator that wins pursuits.

🎯That's precisely why I created the Top Tier Communicator online training program.

It's a flexible communication and leadership class built for you (or your team).

Learn today's skills to build confidence, communicate with clarity, and lead effectively — without leaving the job site or office.

Here's the truth: In our industry, communication isn't a "soft skill." It's a revenue skill.

You don't have to say anything at shortlisted interviews and networking events.

Others pick up on your body language and subconsciously decide if you are approachable.

Your nonverbal communication says it all. 

Humans are "people-watchers." 

Research has long shown that we observe more than we listen. 

Prospects and clients make snap decisions in under five seconds about whether to engage with you. 

This underscores the importance of your nonverbal cues.

✅How do you move and behave?

✅What is your face "saying" about your confidence and mood?

✅Are your gestures (even if you're standing alone in a luncheon) inviting and welcoming?

Yes, architecture, engineering, and construction firms hire me to teach staff how to confidently and clearly speak and deliver presentations. 

It's easy to get your words tangled. I get it. 👀

Still, impactful communicators reach beyond their words so they win pursuits. 

They recognize that nonverbal skills are equally critical in this balance.

Usi...

Reading slides in shortlisted interviews doesn't engage prospects.

🔥Top-tier communicators in A/E/C know how to read the room.

Reading the room means you notice peoples' facial expressions, body language, and energy.

Do people in your presentations look distracted, impatient, or confused?

😮You must notice what people aren't saying.😮

Then, you can subtly re-engage and bring prospects back to your message without missing a beat.🎯

Successful business development teams think on their feet in a split second. 

They know how to course correct.

There is no overwhelm or anxiety.

🏆This technique is pivotal to winning pursuits and competitive projects.🏆

The slides are secondary.

Sending mixed messages to prospects and clients leads to confusion.

Does your body language match your words? 😮

Here's a 30-second video example of a classic disconnect.
