Is your voice secretly sabotaging your leadership?

Most leaders focus on what they say.  Very few understand that how they say it is just as powerful.

Jimmy Cannon is a leading public speaking coach, voice specialist, and creator of the Cannon Method.  He joins the show to reveal how your voice is your most overlooked leadership superpower.

With a background as a jazz musician and years of coaching executives, Jimmy combines vocal training, presence work, and mindset tools to help professionals communicate with clarity, authority, and empathy.

In this conversation, you’ll learn:

  • Why vocal tone matters more than words in high-stakes situations
  • 3 techniques to sound more confident in meetings, pitches, and presentations
  • How to fix weak or rushed speech patterns (without changing your personality)
  • Why leadership is like jazz, and how to “speak in rhythm” with any audience
  • How breath control, pacing, and strategic silence can reduce anxiety and increase trust

Jimmy has worked with top-tier leaders, from anxious CFOs to powerful CEOs.  His Cannon Method breaks down voice, presence, and confidence into tangible, trainable skills that make a lasting impact.
