How Ashley works
Ashley builds courses around the client's professional goals. Training draws on performing arts techniques, subtle media and stand-up comedy devices. In the pitching course, slides are not allowed, so speakers rely on personal connection and storytelling. The public speaking course for marketing teaches speakers to collect post-talk feedback forms. These forms give a natural reason for follow-up meetings. The iMA system is taught in three courses: An introduction, an advanced course and a deep dive.
