Get out of your head
AND INTO THE CONVERSATION
Every conference involves networking with others. This presentation helps your audience make the most of their conversations while taking away lessons they can apply to all of their communication.
Communication happens out 'there', in the space between you and others. Too often, though, we get caught up in 'here', inside our mind.
Learn how to move your communication closer to your audience, to be more connected, trusted and influential.
This keynote includes practical and immediately applicable tips to improve your conversations. It is a great opening to a conference, to help attendees make the most of the event.
Unleashing your inner poet
Would you like to be more creative and memorable in your communication? Do you slip into repeating the same clunky words—the rusty chains of cliché, the manacles of management speak?
Poets look at familiar things in new ways and share surprising connections with our audiences. Thinking like a poet sparks your creativity and originality, making your words stand out.
This keynote gives you some simple techniques to tap the power of poetry to make you more empathetic and connected. It will help you bring your ideas to life with sensory imagery and use the sounds of poetry to make your voice more distinct and memorable
