I help powerful leaders say powerful things: even when they don’t know where to start.
I’m Gina Balarin, the founder of The CEO’s Voice and a professional speaking coach trusted by C-level executives across the globe. My clients are often brilliant, knowledgeable, and empathetic. But their message doesn’t always land with the confidence, clarity or impact they need. That’s where I come in. I specialise in helping technical leaders like CFOs, CTOs, and COOs - as well as sales leaders and CEOs - unlock their authentic voice and deliver their message with precision, presence and punch. Whether they’re preparing for the boardroom, the stage, or a major media moment, I help them go from good to unforgettable.
What's my secret? I see what others don't.
I spot the disconnects, the untapped confidence, the hidden brilliance. And I help leaders bring all of that to the surface — so they can not only speak better, but lead better.
Over the years, I’ve partnered with executives in tech, finance, and sales across Australia, the UK, Africa and Europe. I also host high-impact webinars, collaborate with voice and listening experts, and create powerful content that elevates executive communication in every format, from spontaneous speeches to strategic storytelling.

What happens behind the scenes?
My work is grounded in a powerful mix of academic, strategic and creative credentials. From decades of experience on the stage to my work serving on multiple boards, I bring a communications-first lens to leadership, governance and growth.
But what happens behind the scenes is simple: building on a foundational framework, every single session is tailored to you: your specific needs, your concerns, your areas of improvement and - most importantly - the things that are holding you back, but no longer have to.
Powerful leadership starts with a powerful plan.
If you’re ready to command the room, win hearts and minds and communicate like the leader you are, let’s talk.
Because powerful leadership starts with a powerful plan, but it's executed with an unignorable voice.
Working with Gina Balarin, Verballistics' CEO
What if you could get rid of any residual fear of public speaking, find your inner passion again and do it quickly and (relatively) painlessly?
That’s what I'll help you do.
After 20+ years on the stage, working as a leader, studying and practicing how to create influence I realised being able to hear a CEO's true voice is a rare gift, indeed. That's why I now take leaders from feeling "sh*t-scared" (one client's actual words) to triumphant.
I'm an author, TEDx speaker and FAMI FCIM Chartered Marketer. I sit on multiple boards and have a Master’s degree of Communication. I has been called exceptional, strategic, extraordinary, and a master of communication. But the biggest compliment I ever received was from a CEO’s wife who simply said, “Thank you!” after I helped him change his communication style and find his spark again.
I take speakers from good to great. And from great to extraordinary.
