Media coach Jess Ponce is back with us to talk about his newest book, A.W.E.S.O.M.E.: 7 Keys to Unlocking the Speaker Within. He tells us the importance of the “3 Cs” clarity, confidence and charisma.



Jess Ponce III has coached thousands of celebrities, TV hosts, Fortune 500 executives, creative professionals, and TEDx speakers. International brand leaders Lucasfilm, The Walt Disney Company, HGTV, LinkedIn, The Ritz Carlton, and BNP Paribas have called on his expertise to coach their executives, spokespeople, and talent. 


As a media and communication coach and personal branding expert, Jess created The A Factor®, a methodology for what he has coined “The Art of Authentic Self Promotion.” His laser-focused training helps professionals from all industries strengthen their presentation, leadership, and media skills so they can shine when they need it most—in any speaking arena.


As a speaker and workshop facilitator for The Awesome Group in Taipei and its affiliates in Hong Kong and Mainland China, Jess co-created multiple communication and public speaking programs for adults and youth.


Jess’s vast experience in media communication skills comes from the world of entertainment where he produced and developed programming for ABC, Warner Bros., E! Entertainment, Style, TV Guide Network, and MTV.  He is also the creative force behind Media 2x3, a US-based media company that develops and packages talent by applying individual branding strategies.
