Speaking your Message – The art of effective communication

Tick-tock.

Nobody likes time-wasters.

And yet, so much time is being wasted every time we speak. Unengaging presentations, uninspired pitches, uncharismatic speakers. Audiences have become experts in stifling yawns and performative listening.

My mission is to change that.

How?

By targeting the very thing that makes the difference: Non-verbal communication.

No, this is not a speech that will quickly turn into a pompous lecture with more theory and pseudo-intellectual gibberish than substance.

This session is designed to take you through a process of discovery.

It will identify the key components that can turn you from a speaker to an inspiring and charismatic communicator.

Because every time you present, introduce your business, or speak about what you do in a 30-second commercial, don’t you want the others to listen?

Be ready to learn surprising facts about speaking in a fun and interactive environment.
No hacks, no gimmicks, no games.

So, join me.

And stop wasting time.

Securing the Digital Realm: Dive into Cyber Security Strategies

Everyone is aware of cyber crime. But not everyone is up to speed on what it means for them. Small businesses often have a misconception that they are somehow immune to the dangers of cyber crime because they’re too small and beneath the notice of bad actors. The truth is that nobody is immune, from Microsoft all the way down to individuals. It’s not a matter of if, but when.
Together, we’ll take an in depth look at the methods criminals are using to get into both small and large businesses, the changing landscape of complexity on the horizon, and tools that we all need to embrace as the new normal to thwart criminals with bad intentions and what business owners need to do to qualify for cyber insurance.
Our goal is not cyber immunity, our goal is making our business resilient enough to survive a cyber event, continue to operate and maintain profitability!
