What our customers say

We invited Abigail to teach our PhD students how to create a research video. Through her enthusiastic, catchy & personal style of teaching, Abigail ensured everyone was on board. During the individual coaching she brought out the best in everyone, resulting in some amazing videos! One student even won an international competition based on what she learned during this course!


- Niels Belmans, SCK CEN Academy project leader

Abigail dares to dive into the content with you, making her sessions very effective. Her rational approach taught me how to take a step back, focus on formulating clear messages and structuring those into a visually appealing presentation. Effective leadership requires effective communication skills and Abigail teaches you just how to accomplish this.


- Stijn Uitterhaegen, CEO Vandapower

Abigail's training was very useful to improve my ERC presentation. The training helped to improve my effectiveness in communicating the message, selecting the appropriate content, clarifying the visual support and enhancing the overall pitch. I have no doubt in recommending Abigail to improve communication and presentation skills.


- Professor Esteban Ferrer, School of Aeronautics, Polytechnic University of Madrid

We had an incredibly informative keynote talk about communication given by the wonderful Abigail Swillens! How do you communicate effectively about a difficult topic such as intellectual property? How do you bring a clear and concise message that is heard and understood by your audience? Thank you Abigail for the great tips.


- Ellen Crabbe, Patent Attorney and Partner at brantsandpatents

Thanks to Abigail's structured approach, we were able to formulate sharp messages and build a clear storyline. Throughout the coaching track, Abigail was a constructive sounding board making sure we kept evaluating our story with a critical eye.


- Isabel Michiels, Expert Digital Innovation at Agoria

Abigail has tremendously helped us with our research proposal - finding the right presentation basically meant we had to correctly structure our proposal. She helped to build the story from scratch, asking and challenging us on the storyline and the critical details. She had the tools and tips and tricks to really smoothen the presentation. I can recommend Clever Coyote to everyone to bring any proposal and presentation to the highest level.
