About the Author

Jane Beard is an internationally recognized authority on how to overcome stage fright. She's on a mission to help timid experts with something to say finally face a crowd and make the impact they dream of making. A former professional actor who once suffered from stage fright herself, she now coaches senior executives in high stakes business presentations that change the trajectory of companies and careers. "We don't try to change clients' personalities, or make a 'Stepford Presenter' out of anyone! Authentic, memorable, dynamic connection is what audiences want, and it's what we coach our clients to deliver." She uses cutting edge techniques to help speakers become fearless and present in the moment, so they can deliver presentations that move listeners to take action. A frequent guest on national television and radio shows, she speaks around the country as well. Jane says, "I know what it's like to want to get past the fear but not have the tools to do it! Once you know the secret behind stage fright, it's easy to move out of the shadows. Helping people own the spotlight for themselves and their ideas is what I most love to do!"
