Mary Milla

Mary Milla’s first job out of college was on a TV news assignment desk, where she saw a communications gap between the people who cover the news and the people who want their news covered. Most everyone had good stories to tell -- they were just incapable of telling them in a way any normal person would care about. Once Milla arrived in corporate America, she saw the same problem: good messages getting lost in a lot of muck.

After a career in TV news, public affairs and public relations, Milla struck out on her own in 2003. She has been listening to clients rehearse their speeches and presentations ever since -- keynotes, investor meetings, introductions, emcee scripts, quarterly earnings calls, product launches, strategy updates, motivational talks, acceptance speeches -- you name it, Milla's heard it. Her clients are in finance, agriculture, food, healthcare, insurance and fashion. Clients started asking her to take the microphone and do the talking, launching her speaking-about-speaking career.
