Why listen to Jeff Leshay?
No one is more passionate and effective in helping leaders and subject-matter experts communicate more clearly and persuasively in any setting. That’s why dozens of biopharma leaders have turned to Jeff time and again for his pragmatic, real-world insights rooted in his own uniquely diverse experience as a professional communicator.
As an award-winning TV news and business correspondent with CNBC, Fox, and NBC and ABC affiliate stations, Jeff shined the spotlight on companies and leaders who stood out from the crowd – whose value propositions were distinct and compelling. That often meant simplifying complex scientific, medical and financial issues for a broad audience, eliciting colorful and influential perspective, and telling those stories on the air in engaging, insightful and memorable ways.
Later, Jeff served in leadership roles at three of the world's largest PR firms and two public companies, including Abbott Laboratories, where he led communications and served as spokesperson for the Pharmaceutical Products Division (now AbbVie).
As Chief Executive Coach of Leshay Communications, which he founded in 2011, Jeff focuses exclusively on presentation coaching and media training that help leaders build appreciation for their products and pipelines, attract investment, grow their businesses, communicate effectively through change, and all the while elevate their personal brands of leadership.
Testimonials
Wow. So incredibly helpful! The amount of work that went into this course is so apparent from the content, organization, visuals, and easy usability. Jeff, clearly you are a pro at this... seasoned, personable and clear. Pointers about dealing with nerves, attentiongrabbing starters and pointers for virtual presentations struck a chord with me and will resonate with so many people.
Pharma C-Suite Leader and Board Member
Jeff is incredibly insightful – boot camp with him was tremendously helpful in preparation for the FDA Advisory Committee meeting… Fun and educational!
Horizon Therapeutics Senior Leader
I did as you suggested and brought more of my personal clinical experience into the program, and what a difference! I can actually see them perk up and start to ask questions or relay it to their own clinical practice. It actually makes going over the slides easier since it feels more genuine.
Horizon Therapeutics Senior Scientist
Jeff really took our divisional vice presidents to the next level.
Abbott Laboratories Senior Leader
You were pitch perfect today! I appreciate your continuous support to develop and energize our leaders at West… I cannot begin to tell you how much I picked up from our time together. Frankly, the biggest impact was having a framework to prepare with and considering what I want my audience to ‘do.' This has increased my confidence, Jeff. Thank you!
