The holidays are here, which makes me think of gifts, which reminds me of the key thing I tell every single client I meet:
“Your talk is a gift, not a performance.”
Why?
Because if you want someone’s attention, what you’re saying must be worth their time. Time and attention are precious resources. We’re in a chaotic time of transition in the tech industry. Everyone needs help! If you don’t offer your audience anything useful, all you’ll gain is ill will.
We gravitate toward people and thinkers who share insights, opportunities, and solutions we hadn’t seen ourselves.
When you’re starting to sketch your CEO’s next talk, think of how her content can be a gift.
Then, when she needs coaching on delivery, ping me! Helping her deliver beautifully is the gift I can give you!
Take the risk out of being in the spotlight! I can prepare you, your teams and your leaders to tell your company’s story with confidence, shape the industry and maybe even change the world.
