What separates the world’s best communicators from everyone else? In this episode of Pitch Masters, I sit down with Oliver Aust —former easyJet Chief Communicator, bestselling author, and founder of Speak Like a CEO — to talk about how leaders can pitch, persuade, and present with authenticity. From stories of easyJet’s scrappy early days to his philosophy of anti-fragile communication, Oliver shares practical insights on storytelling, structure, and confidence. His advice is simple yet profound: be cool, be helpful, be flexible.
