At Speak by Design, we believe leadership communication is a skillset that’s always evolving, because leadership itself is never static.


That’s why we created Sharpen & Elevate: a one-day intensive experience designed to help leaders break through their current limits and rise to the next level of clarity, presence, and influence.


This isn’t a lecture, nor a seminar. It’s an interactive workshop.



On July 9th in Detroit, we’ll gather senior leaders, high-performing professionals, and emerging executives for a day of transformational coaching and real-time communication refinement. You’ll walk away not just inspired—but fundamentally changed in how you lead, speak, and show up.


Why “Sharpen & Elevate”?


Because even the sharpest leaders benefit from a tune-up.


Whether you're preparing for a high-stakes presentation, taking on a bigger role, or leading complex teams, your ability to influence, connect, and communicate clearly will define your impact.


This event is about cutting through noise, unlocking your presence, and aligning how you sound and look with the message you want to send.


What Can You Can Expect at Sharpen & Elevate?


  • Live coaching and feedback from the Speak by Design team

  • Interactive exercises to help you refine your message structure, vocal delivery, and body language

  • Real-world scenarios designed to challenge you and strengthen your response under pressure

  • A room full of growth-minded professionals who are committed to becoming more intentional and influential in every interaction


Who This Is For:


  • Leaders navigating high-stakes conversations and cross-functional influence

  • Rising stars preparing for their next big opportunity

  • Seasoned professionals ready to re-energize their presence and communication style


If you’ve been thinking “I want to lead the room, not just sit in it”... this is your moment.
