MEET CHARLIE
High performers don’t usually hit a wall. They hit a plateau.
The work still gets done, but growth feels slower. Curiosity fades. Pressure changes.
That’s where Charlie comes in.
As a former professional athlete, Charlie knows the demands of constant reinvention. His work helps leaders apply that same discipline to how they think, communicate, and lead across their career, teams, and life.
KEYNOTE SPEAKING
Charlie’s keynotes are built for high-performing teams and organizations navigating pressure, change, and expectation.
Through story-driven insight and practical application, he explores presence, leadership, self-awareness, and what it truly means to win — equipping audiences with tools they can apply immediately to communicate with clarity, lead with intention, and perform when it matters most.
COACHING FOR LEADERS & TEAMS
Coaching Paths
One-on-One Coaching
Personalized, high-accountability coaching built around your role, goals, and communication demands.Cohort-Based Coaching
Train alongside peers while applying the same proven curricula in a shared, facilitated environment.
Both paths are built on CLR’s core curricula: Sport of Speaking® and Performance Through Presence®
CLR offers curriculum-based coaching for leaders and teams — delivered through individual retainers or coached cohorts.
Each engagement applies one of our core performance and communication curricula, helping leaders prepare, adapt, and execute when the moment demands it.
THE DIFFERENTIATOR
Most leadership training focuses on information.
We focus on preparation.
Using the mindset and mechanics of elite performers, leaders train how they think, prepare, and respond in high-pressure moments. Through structured reps, realistic scenarios, and real-time feedback, communication becomes a reliable skill and not a personality trait.
OuR TRAINING METHOD
Prep
Build the message, structure, and clarity needed for the moment.
Adaptation

Execution
Deliver with confidence, presence, and control.
