Speech Assessments

Below is an example of how we use our Speech Measurement Tools to identify your communication skills and gaps.  

 

Speech Measurement Tools

Our tools can measure everything about how your speak. We look at the make up of your content, delivery, and variety. Every sentence, every syllable, every decibel. 

 

We compare how you speak with our database of professional speakers. This helps us zero-in on what's holding you back from being a great speaker. We then prepare a hyper-personalised Speaking Performance Plan, with exercises tailored to you.

 

Speaking Performance Plan

In 4x 1 hour coaching / workshop sessions, we can provide hyper-personalised, data-driven communication training to an individual or team.

 

Check out the demonstration images below.

Meet Alex: A good (but not great) speaker
 

Alex is a capable professional, but presentations feel exhausting. Over-relying on clunky scripts leaves him feeling unnatural and uncomfortable. Despite getting "okay" results, he always thinks of better things to say after he leaves the room. He wants to truly excel, not just survive.

Step 1: Self-Assess Nerves

We started with a stress assessment. Alex admitted that pressure derails him before he even speaks. He mentally simulates failure so vividly that he loses sleep, over-prepares obsessively, and even considers calling in sick to avoid the podium. The anxiety is exhausting.

Step 2: Test Vocal Inhibition

Could Alex comfortably modulate his voice? We asked him to replicate a speech varying from a slow whisper to a fast shout. His body physically resisted. He rushed the slow parts, fumbled the fast sections, and couldn't shout. He scored 0/5—a perfectly normal reaction to vocal discomfort.

Step 3: Test Word to Image Association 
 

Next, we tested Alex’s visual imagination. He scored high for "Hyperphantasia"—meaning his brain constantly generates vivid, involuntary images. This explains why he’s a brilliant storyteller but often goes on rambling tangents. His brain works so fast that he gets lost without a rigid script.

Step 4: Test Visually Prompted Speech

We tested his ability to describe images. When forced to describe a picture slowly, Alex stumbled with filler words. But when asked to imagine a scene and speak rapidly, he thrived. His Hyperphantasia means his brain prefers rapidly unloading vivid ideas over strict, slow compliance.

Step 5: Test Capacity for Thinking & Speaking

Finally, we tested cognitive load by having Alex answer simple questions while following stacking rules. He failed by round three. His brain just wanted to communicate freely, not follow rigid formulas. People who rely heavily on structure, rather than imagination, usually pass this easily.

Step 6: Design your Personalized Training Plan

Alex’s diagnostic report revealed an elite ability to generate vivid examples, but a severe lack of underlying structure. We spent four sessions drilling a simple "Right & Wrong" framing technique. By giving his hyperactive imagination a strict container, Alex finally learned to speak freely and powerfully.
