Instructor
Karlo is a coach with a colorful background ranging from linguistics and conference interpreting through acting and entertainment, all the way to childcare. In his workshops and individual training meant to improve people's public speaking, pitching and social skills, there is one golden rule: "Here we allow ourselves to make mistakes, so that we don't make them when it really matters - when it's showtime." This mindset is also reflected in Karlo's online courses: It's not about learning "the right way" but finding your own way and creating your own style that people will recognize you for.
Always striving to grow and help others grow, he is the co-founder of Speech Making Academy together with online entrepreneur Philip Hofmacher, the founder of Speech Fennel and the author of the audio book "Joy of Speaking: Public Speaking for Personal and Professional Development."
In Karlo's experience, developing communication skills is one of crucial factors in achieving any kind of professional or personal success. And if you can have fun while doing it, all the better.
