Eleni Kelakos

Eleni Kelakos, CSP, The Speaker Whisperer, is the president of The Eleni Group, established in 2003. She uses performance techniques learned over twenty years as a professional actress in New York and Hollywood to help executives across the globe be relaxed, real and relatable when they pitch or present.

When she's not coaching business professionals on several continents, or facilitating training at companies like General Motors, Allstate, or Kubota Tractors, Eleni practices what she preaches, empowering and entertaining audiences with her signature keynote presentations.

An award-winning, nationally touring singer/songwriter, Eleni has produced and recorded four acclaimed music CDs. Her songs have been featured in the film Jill and Jac, and danced to by America's Got Talent semi-finalist Beth Ann Robinson. And she's sung the national national anthem at Shea Stadium for three (winning!) Mets games.

Eleni graduated in both Theater Arts and Semiotics from Brown University. Her first book, Touch the Sky! Find Your Voice, Speak Your Truth, Make Your Mark, was a gold medal winner of the 2014 Global e-book Awards. Her second book, Claim the Stage! Find Your Voice, Speak Your Truth, Make Your Mark, released in 2021, hit Amazon best-seller status. Her third book, Charismatic Presence: 5 Principles for Magnetic Presentations, released in 2025, is also an Amazon best-seller and has won both the Firebird and Literary Titans books awards.
