in communication.
I can help you speak in
public with calmness,
fluency and charisma.
I have been a journalist, news reader, trainer and lecturer for more than 25 years.
In the first part of my professional career I added more than 10 thousand hours live in front of the television cameras as a news anchor for CBS-Telenoticias, in Miami, CNN in Atlanta in the United States and TVE in Madrid.
I also lived in Rio de Janeiro focused on my work as a lecturer and trainer of spokespersons. And when I returned to Spain I decided to found the company Mejor Dicho, dedicated to train communication skills of CEOs and senior managers all over the world.
As a trainer and master of ceremonies I have collaborated in hundreds of workshops and meetings in companies such as Merck, Procter & Gamble, Unicef, American Express, IKEA, Nokia, Oracle or Symantec among many others.
I have a degree in Information Sciences from the Complutense University of Madrid and a Master in Executive Coaching from La Salle International Graduate School.
I had the privilege of being part of the team that received the Prince of Asturias Award for International Cooperation, awarded to CNN in 1997.
I do my work in Spanish, English or Portuguese.

I highly recommend Susana´s workshop on public speaking. It is entertaining, practical and full of tips and ideas. Susana tailors the session to the ability, experience and field of each participant. She has a deep understanding of communication and transmits this with passion, empathy and professionalism. Thanks again Susana!

Susana is clearly very much at home in a multi-camera studio. But most importantly, she is able to transmit her professionalism and passion for excellent on-camera presentation skills to ‘normal’ people who are not used to standing in front of several cameras in a studio environment. She managed to substantially improve their presentation skills in front of cameras. Susana is a highly recommended media professional with great communication and people skills.

It was an absolute pleasure working with her on tailoring the contents and messages to our audience, as well as enabling a smooth flow of the program from a logistic and operative perspective. She is very professional, experienced, driven, attentive, amazing communicator, transparent, and with a great sense of humor…

I had the chance to meet Susana when she was supporting the executive training courses at Ketchum (around 2009). She was the key to success in a very difficult training, where we had to cope with a very different communication culture on the side of the speakers. Since that moment, I have always trusted Susana as my preferred partner for speakers’ trainings.
