We teach smart people how to
communicate better

It may be called “15 Minutes”, but it brings years of experience and knowledge in helping people to learn how to communicate their ideas crisply and clearly – and with lasting impact. 

– Daniel Yergin, Vice Chairman of IHS and author of The Prize and The Quest 

"Anne really helped me to hone my book's message, so that I could deliver it crisply, clearly - and often. She created a kind of muscle memory that took a lot of the stress out of interviews and other book-related appearances. And what I learned from Anne, I've been able to translate into other aspects of my life - as an author, educator and coach. Working with Anne was a transformative experience for me - and a great pleasure". 

– Nick Lovegrove author of The Mosaic Principle

Anne Dickerson and Tracey Madigan worked closely on communications with a human trafficking survivor. Their careful, patient, and skilled training transformed her public presentation. I watched Anne and Tracey work magic, guiding a less-experienced public speaker to become a confident and compelling presenter. 15 Minutes Group's engagement, feedback, and expertise made all the difference. 

– Martina Vandenberg President The Human Trafficking Legal Center 

Nina is an extraordinary guide to the often perplexing work of talking to the media: the perfect combination of supportive and hard-assed.

Anne Dickerson is a genius. Jed and I had no idea how to convey the message of our book to a broad audience in a compelling way, and Anne helped us turn a complicated thesis into a New York Times bestseller... .  I recently finished a new book – and the first thing I did was book Anne again!

Amy Chua, author of Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother

Thank you to both Tracey and Anne for helping me dramatically improve on media performances over the years!"

My organization reached out to 15 Minutes Group to lead a half-day media training session for our on-camera team. We noticed immediate improvement in the way they moderated panels, shaped conversations, wrote and delivered succinct introductions to segments, and kept interview subjects on-topic and on time.  

The 15 Minutes Group taught our team the fundamentals of how to deliver the best on-camera performance, from crafting interesting segues to politely (but firmly) cutting off meandering speakers. They also reviewed the technical aspects of the trade, from what clothing looks best to where their eyes should focus.  

I cannot recommend 15 Minutes Group strongly enough for any individual or organization that is looking to improve their on-camera performance.
