Keynotes, speeches, and workshops
No matter the subject, my audience will be motivated by emphasizing the "why" and by engaging them to consider the benefits of doing things slightly differently.
I have enjoyed being invited to speak at 25+ international conferences, from Chicago to Kuala Lumpur, and internally at everything from OMX C20 companies' executive leadership teams to 20-employee companies' pre-weekend social events. Keynotes or tailored workshops. It is always a pleasure to inspire and challenge.
