Edith Barnard's passion is helping people find their voice and
mission. She holds a masters degree in theatre and enjoys
helping people feel comfortable on the stage of life! Edith is
an award-winning speaker and an in-demand speech
coach. “Edie” operated her own theatre in Maine for 15 years.
She combines the best of traditional public speaking methods
with a new approach based on techniques she has used in her
theatre career for many years. Theatre techniques enable you
to appear relaxed and confident, even when your mind is
reeling. The effective public speaker is a good performer--
good speakers are made, not born. She helps executives,
corporations and individuals discover and enhance their voice
and mission through seminars as well as individual coaching.
She represented the US Government as a cultural ambassador
to Greece and sat on the board of the Caribbean American
Chamber of Commerce. She returned home to Central Illinois
in June of 05 due to a death in her family and is thrilled to be
home to roost at her roots. Her clients, many of whom work
internationally, appreciate her global experience as well as her
ability to focus on what’s right in front of them. She is a
member of Peoria’s Downtown Rotary and sits on the boards of
the Apollo Theatre and of the Heart of Illinois American Society
of Trainers and Developers. Her clients include Caterpillar,
OSF, Junior League of Peoria, L. L. Bean, The Peace Corp,
Barclay Bank, Richard Branson’s Virgin Atlantic Airline…and
more! Based in Peoria, she works world-wide.
