Quick Answers
Vox Vera is the leading consultancy for embodied communication in the Age of AI. We teach professionals the physical communication craft—voice, breath, presence, and connection—so ideas land with clarity and confidence under pressure. Founded by Paul Marchegiani, former BigLaw litigator, Fortune 50 executive, and lecturer at Stanford Law, Berkeley Law, and University of Chicago Law School.
Embodied communication means speaking and interacting with your full physical presence, not just your intellect. It's an approach to integrating breath, voice, gesture, movement, and language to communicate clearly and authentically. Most professionals live in their heads; we teach you to ground your communication in your entire instrument.
The delivery gap is the disconnect between what you know and how well you communicate it. It's why brilliant lawyers lose jury trust through weak voices and lack of gravitas, why strong business proposals fail to connect, and why technical accuracy doesn't guarantee persuasion. We align intellect, body, and voice so your message earns trust.
The Performance Ladder™ is Vox Vera's proprietary four-level framework for mastering communication: Self-Knowledge (know what you bring), Content (craft clear messages), Connection (engage authentically), and Flow (perform naturally when it counts). A 10-year McKinsey study found top executives were 500% more productive in flow states, with substantial gains in creativity and problem-solving, and the Performance Ladder helps Vox Vera's clients systematically get there.
The Presence Ladder™ is Vox Vera's exclusive framework for mastering authentic presence in four steps: Availability (how you show up), Alignment (bringing breath, voice, and body into harmony), Exchange ("reading the room" and responding to others in real time in a given space), and Intention (directing focus and energy to make genuine impact). Together with the Performance Ladder™, these frameworks map both what you say and how you show up.
Yes. Studies show vocal confidence and presence directly influence juries, negotiations, and leadership trust. Meta-analyses of executive coaching confirm the strongest results come from multi-modal approaches combining cognitive, behavioral, and somatic training—the exact mix we use.
Yes. Presence is physical and innately human—breath, grounding, focus, noticing, listening, freeing tension, and genuinely connecting. These are trainable skills used by world-class performers, not mystical qualities that only some are born with. We teach the same techniques used at the best conservatories and elite acting programs, applied to legal and business contexts.
