About Executive Speaking Success - John Bates

“Most leaders have great ideas. I help them communicate those ideas so powerfully that people can’t help but listen—and act.” At Executive Speaking Success, we help leaders, teams, and organizations master the art of leadership communication, strategic messaging, TED-format talks, and more. I train executives at NASA, Accenture, Johnson & Johnson and beyond, and here’s what they say: this is the most effective approach to leadership, communication, persuasion, and influence they’ve ever experienced. Why? Because my methodology combines neuroscience, evolutionary biology, and storytelling to give you skills that work in every aspect of life—not just on stage. Originally built for TED and TEDx speakers, our approach reveals not just what works, but why it works—so you can adapt it to your own style. You’ll learn to speak with clarity, confidence, and authenticity… and to lead, influence, and inspire in any setting. Leaders who train with ESS consistently elevate their presence, storytelling, and persuasive power, embedding these skills into their organizations’ culture. The results? More effective leadership, more inspired teams, and communication that moves people to action. If you’re ready to tell your story with impact—and make your communication as mighty as your ideas—let’s get started.
