Executive Communication System
Every important business conversation requires three skills. Whether you're leading a meeting, presenting to a client, answering a difficult question, or influencing a decision — effective communication follows the same progression.
Every important business conversation requires the ability to build a clear message, deliver it with confidence, and adapt when the conversation changes.
Four programs — from individual coaching to team alignment to large-audience keynotes — each built around the Hit the Mark™ system.
Communication Essentials™ gives participants a proven structure to organize ideas, craft clear and compelling messages, and deliver them with confidence. Through three coached on-camera sessions and a final Executive Communication Challenge, participants leave with practical tools they can apply immediately.
The Confident and Influential Communicator™ is built for leaders whose success depends on communicating effectively under pressure — thinking on their feet, handling difficult questions, and influencing critical decisions with confidence. Through six coached on-camera sessions, executive Q&A, and advanced communication scenarios, participants leave ready for the moments that matter most.
Every important client presentation requires more than great individual presenters. The winning team isn't simply the most knowledgeable — it's the team that communicates as one. Winning the Room™ helps pursuit teams align around one story, deliver with one voice, and respond with confidence when the conversation changes.
Every organization faces different communication challenges — some leaders need to simplify complex ideas, others need greater confidence, and others need to think more clearly under pressure. Delivered as a keynote or working session from 60 minutes to 4 hours, each experience is fully customized to your audience and built around the Hit the Mark™ system.
"The best presentations aren't performances. They're conversations. And conversations change minds."— Hugh Asher, Founder
I started early. As a childhood actor on an Emmy Award-winning program in Atlanta, I learned before most people learn to drive that the difference between holding a room and losing one comes down to a few precise choices.
I spent the next twenty years proving it in the business world. As a business development executive and client educator at Morgan Stanley, Smith Barney, Citigroup, and The Capital Group, I saw firsthand what separates the professionals who win the room from the ones who lose it — and it rarely came down to the quality of their ideas.
That insight became my life's work. As founder of Asher Consulting, and formerly as Executive Coach at Speechworks and Adjunct Lecturer at Georgia Tech's Scheller College of Business, I have helped executives, teams, and MBA students communicate with clarity, confidence, and impact.
My workshops are practical, high-energy, and built on one belief: if the room isn't engaged, nothing else matters. Oh — and they're fun. Genuinely, surprisingly fun.
Student Feedback — Georgia Tech, Scheller College of Business
He balances criticism and positive reinforcement. I saw him really transform speakers in this class from shy to confident people.
He led the course by example, which I think is the best way to teach. Professor Hugh is just absolutely brilliant on his lecture style.
Professor Asher was very enthusiastic and respectful with all the students. He helped to create a positive environment.
