Rick Altman

Rick Altman helps people communicate clearly when the stakes are high and the screen is between them. A presentations consultant for more than two decades, he’s best known as the founder and longtime host of the Presentation Summit, an annual gathering of speakers, trainers, and communication professionals from around the world.

Rick’s work focuses on the human side of presenting—clarity, connection, voice, visuals, and intent. In virtual environments, these qualities are easy to lose and hard to fake. His approach is practical, experience-driven, and refreshingly free of jargon.

When he’s not working with presenters or writing about communication, Rick can usually be found hiking mountains and playing tennis, golf, pickleball, or old man's hardball.
