SPEAK WITH CONFIDENCE

The Speech Improvement Company is the oldest communication coaching firm in the United States. Founded in 1964, we have spent more than six decades helping people become clearer, more confident, and more effective speakers in business, media, education, and public life.

We are professional speech coaches who work with executives, managers, teams, sales professionals, public figures, and individuals in high-stakes communication situations. We provide consulting, group training, public workshops, and individualized coaching for presentations, leadership communication, investor pitches, interviews, difficult conversations, sales communication, customer service, media appearances, and more.

Over the decades, TSIC has trained more than one million people worldwide. Clients have included Amazon, Apple, Bain Capital, Fidelity, Harvard, IBM, MIT, Pfizer, Raytheon, the Boston Celtics, the White House, and many others.

Not in Massachusetts? No problem. We coach clients in person, travel worldwide, and work remotely by Zoom, FaceTime, WhatsApp, and similar platforms.

Our coaches work with organizations, entrepreneurs, celebrities, politicians, professional athletes, physicians, lawyers, and anyone whose success depends on strong communication. The firm is trusted for confidential coaching and practical guidance in high-visibility settings.

Each program is custom-designed and implemented by highly trained, formally educated coaches with graduate-level and doctoral backgrounds. Members of the coaching team have taught at Harvard, Wharton, Boston College, Boston University, MIT, and Northeastern, and have appeared on ABC, CNBC, FOX, NBC, and PBS.

To date, we have written thirteen books on speaking and communication, and our frameworks continue to shape the way we coach clients today. Jon Platt, Chairman and CEO of Sony Music Publishing, has publicly credited TSIC with changing the course of his career and still relies on the firm today.
