KEYNOTE Session 1: You have 7 seconds. Make them count
In the fast-paced world of speaking, first impressions can make or break opportunities. When potential clients, event professionals, corporate buyers, or bureau partners explore speakers, they swiftly form judgments that influence their decisions to hire, trust, or collaborate. It may seem unfair, but it’s also an extraordinary chance to take control of the narrative and showcase your best self from the first to the last interaction.
Building lasting connections and driving results requires speakers to tap into the power of emotional intelligence. By leveraging this crucial skill, they can intentionally shape how they are perceived during these pivotal moments.
Through an interactive, fun, and thought-provoking program, speakers will delve into how others perceive them and how this perception impacts their reputation in the marketplace. They will come face-to-face with the influence of unconscious biases on judgments and the significant impact these biases can have on opportunities and assumptions. They will identify areas for improvement and gain practical strategies for proactively leveraging their visual, behavioral, nonverbal and verbal, digital, and social intelligence.
With this program, speakers will be armed with the skills and insights needed to navigate the speaking industry, leave a lasting impact, and establish a strong personal brand that resonates with clients and industry professionals alike.
Equip your audience with the transformative power of emotional intelligence and guide them in making intentional choices about how they present themselves in crucial moments, starting from that very first moment of interaction.
KEYNOTE SESSION 2: Discover Your Fair Advantage
In the competitive world of professional speaking, setting yourself apart from peers and competitors is crucial. What makes you truly unique? How do you distinguish yourself from the rest of the pack? These are essential questions that every speaker should be able to answer confidently. It all comes down to discovering your fair advantage—the combination of fifteen distinct selling points that position you as a standout professional to decision-makers within and beyond the speaking industry.
Uncovering and leveraging their fair advantage provides them with a profound sense of self-awareness and self-confidence. It empowers them to present, act, and communicate authentically and confidently before, during and after every speaking engagement.
In this interactive presentation, participants will embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery to uncover their individual selling points and learn how to leverage them effectively in their speaking careers.
Through thought-provoking insights and profound questions, they will explore the intersections of all factors that make each speaker a “category of one.” They will walk away from this program with a deep understanding of their unique selling points and the tools to use them to be more persuasive, make an impactful impression within mere seconds, and build trusting relationships with clients, event professionals, and industry partners.
Let your audience discover their fair advantage and unleash your full potential as a speaker. Let’s help them to stand out, make an impact, and build a thriving speaking career by leveraging their unique strengths and qualities.
