No fluff. No noise. Just real skills for the moments that matter.
Executive training for the real world. IMPACT is The Hoffman Agency’s bold new executive training division, built for leaders who want more than a pep talk. We don’t do lectures. We don’t do hypotheticals. We do pressure-tested coaching for high-stakes situations. If you're facing a boardroom, a broadcast, or a breakout opportunity - IMPACT helps you show up and lead with confidence.
Why now? Because everything's changed.
Let’s be honest, most leadership training is a total snoozefest.
Long on theory, short on relevance. And none of it prepares you for the real-world heat leaders face today.
IMPACT was designed for these moments — where communication isn’t just a soft skill, it’s a strategic one.
Because in the moments that matter most, leaders don’t just need a script or to be able to read the room — they need to steer it toward a strategic outcome.
From product launches to crisis town halls, the pressure is real. In an AI-powered world, communication is your human advantage.
Communication Is Your Edge
In an era of information overload, clear, strategic communication cuts through the noise and drives real impact.
High Stakes, Higher Expectations
From town halls to tough investors, product launches to global stages, the stakes have never been higher.
Leadership Has No Borders
Leadership is now cross-border, cross-platform, and always on.
AI Doesn’t Have EQ
AI can write a script, but it can’t read the room.
What makes IMPACT different?
IMPACT flips the script on traditional training. We work with executives in real scenarios, under real pressure to help them command the room and the outcome.
Whether You're:
Launching your most exciting product to date
Facing a tough town hall after layoffs
Raising a funding round or gearing up for an IPO
Gunning for hearts and headlines in a media interview that matters
Managing a crisis with reputations on the line
Rolling out a culture reset across borders
Navigating an M&A where every word counts
IMPACT gives you the coaching, clarity, and confidence to own every moment. We combine high-stakes comms training with deep industry insight to help leaders lead in the moments that make reputations.
The five IMPACT pillars.
Practical, pressure-tested, and built to deliver across leadership realities.
Brand IMPACT
Shape the story — or someone else will. Craft narratives that resonate from boardroom to byline.
Speaker IMPACT
Presence isn’t a vibe. It’s a skill. Master the art of speaking with clarity, confidence, and control.
Trust IMPACT
Trust is the currency of leadership. Learn to navigate tough conversations and land your message under fire.
Talent IMPACT
If you can’t inspire your team, someone else will. Drive alignment and retention through internal storytelling.
Culture IMPACT
Cross-border leadership takes more than translation. Lead with cultural intelligence and make impact land globally.
Meet the people
behind the pressure test!
Led by Isabelle Demaude, Head of Executive Training & Development, and Caroline Hsu, Chief Global Officer, IMPACT is powered by leaders who’ve been there. From IPOs and M&As to keynotes and culture transformations — our trainers bring real experience, not recycled slides.
Every session is scenario-based and delivered by a tailored team of strategists, consultants, and specialists; including voices from the front lines of tech, media, and global leadership.
Let's Get To Work
High-stakes moments are coming. Be Ready.
Whether you're leading through pressure or seizing your biggest opportunity yet: the ability to communicate with power, purpose, and poise is non-negotiable.
