About Me

I'm passionate about helping regional leaders & teams succeed by matching their expertise with speaking, presence and communication skills.
I'm Adam Stadius, a performance coach helping people communicate under pressure. I'm originally from Durham in the North East and now live in Yorkshire.
I work with:
-
Keynote speakers
-
Startup founders
-
Regional leadership teams
Ultimately, I work with people who need to perform when it counts.
My background is in actor training, having worked for 20 years in leading Drama Schools in the UK and worked with award winning professionals.
My coaching now isn’t about theatre. It’s about behaviour, how you present yourself in rooms that matter.
I coach leaders and performers using proven techniques drawn from the stage to help people rehearse, refine, and deliver high-stakes communication with authenticity and authority.
I’m proudly focused on supporting those building outside of London. If you’re working across the North or the wider UK regions, you’re exactly who I work with.
Whether you're a future TEDx sensation or preparing to pitch for the C-Suite, I'll help you connect to yourself, your voice, your message and your audience.
I believe everyone has the ability to be interesting, and I'd love to help you.
