A specialist in executive leadership communication


Brett Rutledge is a World Champion of Public Speaking and a gifted and highly experienced communicator who knows how to engage people and make your leadership communication effective.

Communication is the primary tool of leadership. Regardless of whether it is in front of a thousand people, a boardroom of executives or to a single colleague across a coffee table, if the information is important then we should convey it through speech. Email, video, memo or any other tools don’t do the job anywhere near as effectively as face-to-face verbal communication. This has always been the case and will continue to be so. When delivering information that really matters, your ability to effectively communicate in a verbal manner is crucial and sadly too many of our business leaders underperform and underachieve in this area.

The greatest problem with leadership communication is that so much of it is ineffective!

Too many executive leaders grossly overrate their communication effectiveness. Too many don’t understand how to communicate effectively or what effective communication even is. Too many mistakenly invest inordinate sums of energy in disproven and irrelevant communication theories and techniques.

Much of what we have been taught and led to believe about leadership communicationis just plain wrong!

As a specialist in executive leadership communication, Brett can immediately improve your communication effectiveness by developing and deepening your understanding of key principles. His approach is unique and his results are outstanding.

Improving your communication effectiveness is not about skill or technique it is about a completely different way of thinking!

We encourage you to look around and if what you read, hear and see excites you, then please get in touch.

‘The Great Dictator’ was Charlie Chaplin’s most successful film and his first true talking picture.

Released in October, 1940 it was the first film to bitterly satirize Naziism and Adolf Hitler at a time when the United States was still at peace with Germany.

At the very end of the film comes one of the great cinematic speeches – one that perfectly encapsulates Chaplin’s disgust with greed, bloodshed and division.

January/February 2012

Advertisers, Politicians and Weasly Words

Welcome to 2012 and the impending end of all things – at least that is what the Mayan Calendar, Nostradamus and my Great Aunt Elsie have been telling us is in store for 2012. To be fair, the meaning of the Mayan Calendar is in dispute, Nostradamus was a bit on the vague side and my Great Aunt Elsie could only come through with the letter ‘A’ at the séance (which I naturally interpreted as ‘Armageddon’). Either way the signs all point to imminent doom.

In preparation for the end of the world I have decided to lessen my workload somewhat and the Editorial will now be a bi-monthly publication. This is mostly due to the fact that the consulting I do has increased considerably and I will also be lecturing at Monash University this year. I know what you are thinking, Rutledge lecturing on communication at a university… the end is closer than we thought.
