Companies, executives, and founders who are ready to be seen as leaders – not just vendors or marketers – hire me to help them develop and deploy their leadership messaging and communication strategies.
I am skilled at every stage of this process, from developing messaging to project-managing content creation, to publishing and publicizing bespoke media products.
I also work as a coach/mentor/editor for entrepreneurs, executives, and others who want to learn how to find their authentic stories and tell them to the world in an impactful way.
Bespoke media and content products
Dylan and I worked together on an executive thought leadership platform. He wrote the highest quality pieces I’ve seen during my decades-plus career and provided excellent strategic counsel. He’s also a joy to work with. I couldn’t recommend him more. – Shoshana Deutschkron, tech marketing executive, ex-Upwork
My specialty is working with technology companies and comms/marketing teams to develop stories that resonate with target audiences, align with company messaging, and help establish leadership, influence, and authority. I help clients define their key messages, uncover their stories, and plan their content strategies. I also work with many companies to develop, write, and publish leadership content in a variety of media.
For larger projects, I can tap my network of freelance writers, designers, and multimedia producers to meet your needs.
For more details, see my leadership communications agency, Tweney Media.
Ghostwriting and thought leadership
I work with many entrepreneurs, executives, and others who want to find their authentic stories and tell them to the world. I help these leaders establish themselves as thought leaders — intellectual influencers — with a portfolio of impactful content that expresses their unique points of view.
Depending on your needs, I will be your writing coach, editor, and/or collaborator. When needed, I can ghostwrite for you, or we can work out an organic combination of writing, editing, and coaching that fits what you need.
“Dylan is one of the people who taught me how to write. He is a brilliant editor who knows how to make prose compelling but also keep an author’s voice honest and authentic. I benefited so much from his support, both while working as a journalist, and later while writing my first book.” – Christina Farr, author and investor
Workshops, training, and coaching
This was one of the most useful training sessions I’ve ever attended. – Account director at a tech-focused PR agency
I’m an experienced public speaker, journalist, and writer, and can deliver practical workshops that help your team members become better writers, communicators, and thought leaders.
Recent sessions I’ve delivered:
- Business writing – how to write more easily and powerfully, especially when you’re collaborating with others
- Thought leadership – how to craft stories that make you and your brand stand out
- Media relations – writing better pitches and connecting with reporters more effectively
Contact me if your organization is interested in learning how to write better, whether that’s for communications, marketing, or general business writing.
This was a fantastic workshop! I loved the structure of it, it was super engaging, and filled with real life humor we can all get behind. I keep hearing from the group how much they enjoyed your workshop. We must do it again! – Jennifer E. Matos, COOP Careers
