About Us
Stand & Deliver is a consulting and training firm that primes organizations for high-performance communication and leadership.
Through customized curricula and signature programs, we address the skills that move teams toward growth, transformation and innovation. Our faculty combines experience in business, education, arts and entertainment, and health and wellness—part of a sophisticated approach that helps organizations bring big ideas to the world.
Peter J. Meyers founded Stand & Deliver in 2000. Building upon experiences and insights from the worlds of art and sports psychology, he developed firm’s methodology “high-performance leadership communication,” which serves as basis for his book, As We Speak: How to Make Your Point and Have It Stick, co-written with Shann Nix published by Simon & Schuster.
Stand & Deliver’s services are rooted in the core skill areas that we believe make up high-performance communication: content, delivery and state. We believe in learning by doing, and our curricula and programs are highly participatory. An intimate faculty-to-participant ratio keeps us focused on the specific demands facing organizations, teams and individuals.
Construct a clear architecture of ideas.
Say what you want to say in a way that is clear, relevant and memorable.
Use your whole body to support your message.
Develop executive presence and enhance your voice as a leader.
Develop repeatable practices to perform at your best when the stakes are high.
Manage your emotions and focus, whether you're addressing an audience of one or one
thousand.
In our work with thousands of people around the world, one thing is clear—there is far more that unifies us than divides us. We stand with those committed to ending racial injustice, to recognizing and embracing our shared humanity. We will continue to dedicate our work towards building connection, the language to advocate, and the skills to listen with the intent to understand.
We commit to being an ally and agent of change. We commit to supporting our employees with forums to share and to learn from each other, and to promoting and protecting fairness, inclusion and attracting and creating opportunities for diverse talent. We commit to investing in our work to serve our clients with techniques and practices to create environments of safety for their teams and colleagues, and the skills to have uncomfortable conversations about race and bias.
Stand & Deliver meets you where you are, from San Francisco to Singapore.
