KEYNOTE #1

Misconnected. The science and spectacle of winning communications

From email to Zoom, F2F to TikTok — we have more ways than ever to talk, share ideas and connect with one another. 

And we’re doing a worse job than ever. 

Take on the most common ways we misconnect in this high-inspiration keynote based on the forthcoming book Misconnected. The book features more than 50 rules to help every person hold better conversations. 

Tailor your modular keynote, choosing five of the most common misconnections in your own organization or industry, including: 

+ Why we react (versus respond) and what to do about it
+ How to enable every audience to listen better
+Your need for more “Boss” Headlines
+ The neuroscience of audiences and how to create action

Power presenting. How to speak up and get results

It’s a startling fact.

Over the course of 15 minutes, every single member of your audience will tune out from your presentation, panel, fireside chat, pitch or media appearance.

And you can do something about it.
