Helping you become an impactful communicator

Research shows that being an impactful communicator is the top skill leaders need to navigate today’s everchanging and disruptive environment (Harvard Business Publishing). Being an impactful communicator enables you to build understanding, trust and connection with audiences, such as when:

  • leading change
  • pitching an idea
  • motivating teams
  • giving a media interview
  • advocating for resources
  • running a stakeholder meeting, or
  • delivering a speech or presentation.

Many leaders, however, struggle to communicate in these situations for a variety of reasons. They may lack clarity of message, lack confidence or lack delivery skills, or a combination of all these factors. This is where Ros Weadman can help. For more than four decades, she’s helped government, business and community leaders to communicate with impact so they can build trust, drive results and enhance reputation.


Building your personal brand

A strong personal brand helps leaders clearly communicate who they are, what they stand for and where they’re heading. It also helps them amplify their leadership voice, expand their influence and elevate their worth.

Ros Weadman’s INNER BRILLIANCE Personal Branding™ System has four key dimensions to help you achieve these outcomes.

  • Purpose

    Your ‘why’ that drives you to make a difference

  • Positioning

    Your differentiating qualities that set you apart

  • Proflie

    Your presence and visibility in the marketplace

  • Profitability

    Your ability to commercialise your professional positioning

    I have participated in a number of development programs with Ros over several years, including a comprehensive 10-week mentoring and strategic communications alignment course, where she guided us through the development of an extremely valuable team document.

    Along the journey, the passion and expertise shown by Ros was second to none and it resulted in achieving all outcomes we wanted for our department, including building confidence in each team member’s purpose within our organisation.

    I’d highly recommend anyone leading a team of communications professionals to engage in this mentoring service.

    I found the overall experience really valuable. In a deadline driven, reactive team its easy to just churn and burn. To sit and think about why we do what we do and the value we bring to the organisation really adds meaning to the job. After doing the workshop I feel really proud of the work I do, but also really motivated for what’s to come.

    The sessions we did with Ros were invaluable. They gave us space to think more holistically and strategically away from the often reactive nature of the day-to-day. Ros has a brilliant ability to empower you to broaden your thinking, to push you to think two or three steps above the issue you think you have, to then see the higher-level solution. My colleague and I often reflect on our sessions with Ros and the way our thinking has evolved as a result.

    Due to the marketing activities that I am doing I am getting more leads than I ever anticipated but the additional benefits I have received working with Ros is a renewed energy and focus on why I do what I do, which has not only improved my client conversations but also helped me build standards and procedures for myself and my staff that have really improved the working environment.

    Working with Ros was like a breath of fresh air into my business. Although I was not 100% sure at the beginning of where it would lead or what was expected. The outcome was business changing. I reconnected deeply with my WHY, I am now able to see my business from a new perspective with a vision of where I want it to go. It also provided a platform for enhancing my website, my promotional material and best of all an alignment throughout.

    The Melbourne Seafood Centre first engaged Ros Weadman in 2011. At the time, we required a company with specialist skills to help us liaise with the state government on a significant but delicate matter. Ros came in, assessed our situation and advised us on the best way to move forward. She understood our business, what we wanted to achieve and we got the best results. Since then we have used her a number of times and each time the service has been excellent with positive outcomes.

    Barbara Konstas Chief Executive Officer – Melbourne Seafood Centre
