# VOCAL > Private 1:1 executive communication advisory and presence coaching for women in boardroom and C-suite rooms. VOCAL is a private advisory founded by Rutwa Nashikkar, Professor, Linguist, and Executive Communication Advisor. She works with a small number of women each quarter: directors, vice presidents, and leaders preparing for board seats or C-suite roles. The advisory isolates hedging and qualifiers in executive speech, builds real-time articulation for hostile Q&A, and trains leaders to hold the floor when they are interrupted. It is advanced linguistic advisory for seasoned corporate directors. ## Services - [Executive communication advisory](https://vocal.vedoralabs.com/): Private presence coaching for women in board and executive-committee rooms - [90-day executive communication retainer](https://vocal.vedoralabs.com/#advisory): Private 1:1 coaching and live boardroom simulations, capped at four clients a quarter - [Executive meeting frameworks](https://vocal.vedoralabs.com/#advisory): Self-paced C-suite communication templates and board presentation guides ## Consultation - [Book an executive communication consultation](https://vocal.vedoralabs.com/book): Request time with Rutwa Nashikkar for a leadership communication assessment ## Reference - [VOCAL advisory reference](https://vocal.vedoralabs.com/vocal.md): Audience, method, offers, and answers to the questions executives ask
