About Leslie Gordon
Leslie Gordon is a nationally recognized speaker and speaker coach known for helping professionals unlock their clearest, strongest voice. A former over-preparer and hesitant presenter herself, Leslie now transforms leaders across industries—from higher ed to healthcare to tech—to speak with clarity, calm, and confidence. Her training blends vocal technique, presentation structure, and presence work in a way that’s practical and deeply empowering. Clients walk away feeling more themselves, and more in command, every time they speak.
"Leslie was great with providing feedback and instruction. The group who participated was very talkative and seemed to really engage in each session."
“I have been looking for someone who ‘gets it’—who knows what my way of speaking means and will be responsible and helpful. Leslie is that person.”
“I have come really far in understanding how to connect better with my clients. Leslie really gave me some useful tools.”
“I never took the time to think about WHY I am speaking, and what it means to the people who hear me. That makes such a difference.”
"This course has helped me with the things I need to improve, but also helped me lean into things that I didn't know were strengths."
"Dr. Leslie is so engaging and she really takes an interest in helping each person find their own skills and use them right away."
