Keynotes, Workshops and Training

Discussing key issues in the workplace is important, and choosing the right presenter can help facilitate conversations among your teammates, employees, or conference attendees. Whether you need targeted trainings to boost communication skills or want employee workshops on timely topics like the differences between generations, I can tailor a presentation to your audience.

What to expect

I can provide a new perspective on a chosen topic with a training, workshop, or keynote address. Armed with new knowledge and a new way of seeing things, your audience will come away with practical communication theory to use in day-to-day duties.

These sessions can be 60-90 minutes, a half-day, or a whole-day, depending on how much you would like to cover and the format you would like to use. Typically, a keynote session is 60-90 minutes while workshops and trainings can be a half-day or whole-day. Topics can surround digital communication, the intergenerational workforce, interpersonal communication, client communication, how to be a powerful public speaker, and other options. I will offer useful handouts and participants will walk away with answers to their most pressing questions.

I keep my presentation style engaging and enthusiastic, and I break concepts down and make them approachable and practical.

I am a dynamic presenter and keep sessions professional yet personable.
