I’m Corey Hansen, Energizer, Presentation and Performance Coach, Professional Actor, and Author of “How to Act in Business”. My business name comes from the book title that gets to the foundation of how you behave in business—in other words, how you treat people through your unique style.
I help people be better actors on their professional stage through Presentation Skills workshops, Performance Coaching, Keynotes and ongoing learning through my Blog and Book.
My unique and energizing learning activities come from my experience in two seemingly disparate worlds—the performance stage where I have successfully held roles as a live theatre and multi-medium professional actor, and as professor of acting at the University of Washington Graduate School of Drama in Seattle; and the corporate stage where I have grown through 20 years experience in working with Fortune 100 companies including experience as an executive coach focusing on communication effectiveness. A brief bio is available for your convenience (opens a new tab).
My take on excellence as communicators comes from hundreds of performances on both stages, interacting with leaders from around the globe and the strong belief that you can use techniques actors use to be way more effective.
As you consider this please understand that acting is NOT pretending to be someone else, but rather, drawing on your talent and skills to deliver your authentic performance while learning techniques to stretch in areas where you feel less accomplished.
My goal is to create relevant and energizing classes and content that you can put to work in your personal and professional life. If you rely on effective interpersonal communication to move your world forward, this site and associated learning opportunities are for you.
I’m available to work with you and your organization in 1-on-1 and group coaching, customized or public workshops and delivering the just-right-and-in-time keynote on a customized topic. Use the Calendar to see scheduled classes and other events for your development. And if you’re looking for feedback and actionable next steps in leadership/executive presence, presentation skills or keynote delivery, be sure and look at my Your Video Coaching page.
