THE SPEAK WITH PIERRE PODCAST
THE SPEAK WITH PIERRE PODCAST is all about powerful communication and both personal and professional development. This podcast is a place for growth, guidance and great conversation.
As a communication coach and business English teacher, my goal is to empower people through language, valuable personal experiences and professional insights from my ten years of coaching and teaching.
This show is about inspiring people, great conversation and a space for learning!
In the early seasons, I invited coaches, creatives, spiritual guides and professionals from all walks of life to share their stories. We explored public speaking, career changes, confidence, mindfulness, leadership and of course language learning - always through the lens of personal growth and meaningful dialogue.
Now in Season 4, it's all about improving your communication skills. These solo episodes are short, focused and practical - packed with coaching insights to help you communicate more clearly, speak with confidence and open up the doors of opportunity in your professional life.
Whether you’re here to sharpen your business English skills or simply grow as a communicator, this podcast is just what you need.
It’s coaching meets conversation - with music, insight and moments that stay with you.
And of course, for all those interested in improving their communication skills with me, never hesitate to reach out! Find me on social media, check out my website and send me a message.
Let’s walk down the road to improvement together!
THE SPEAK WITH PIERRE PODCAST
Leading Conversations with Small Talk
This episode is a follow-up to Episode 1, First Impressions Are Everything, where we talked about how to introduce yourself with purpose, confidence and clarity in moments that count.
But once introduction are done... what happens after that?
This is something I see often in my work — even professionals who have a strong introduction still freeze after that first exchange. They don’t know how to keep things flowing, or how to steer the interaction toward their goals.
And that’s where small talk comes in. Not as something casual or empty. But as a tool you can use to keep conversations alive, build rapport and open doors.
Whether you're at a casual networking event, professional conference or speaking with a potential client, you want to come across as natural, confident, and intentional — not awkward or scripted.
This episode is going to help you stay present, sound more confident and make better connections. This is especially helpful for those you who speak English as a second language!
Stick around until the end for a practical challenge to help you apply what you learn — and if you want to work with me on improving your English or communication strategy, I’d love to hear from you.
Enjoy the episode.
