What to expect

I prefer to have interactive sessions where the audience is participating! I have built a variety of small activities into every presentation to ensure your guests are engaged, learning, and entertained...regardless of the topic presented.

I prefer to know the issues and concerns of the audience so I can specifically communicate the topic to their areas of concern. There is NO off the shelf presentation - every time I speak I tailor the content to meet your needs.

Through a combination of academic research, storytelling, and engaging activities (either seated or breakout style) your audience will be engaged and entertained during my presentations...and they will probably learn something too!

Her role is to deploy the lean operating system through coaching, guiding, teaching, facilitating, and influencing a transformational culture change by applying lean principles, concepts, and tools.

She is also adjunct faculty at two universities teaching marketing, business, and leadership courses. She is also certificated to administer the Kirton Adaption-Innovation Instrument, a tool to illuminate a person's innate problem-solving style.

As a public speaker, she is in high demand at academic and industry conferences as well as corporate leadership events. As a teacher, she offers highly interactive workshops that focus on team dynamics, problem-solving style, interpersonal relationships, and leadership development.

Additional booking notes

All content will be modified to meet the needs of your audience. While the topics may seem wide and varied, there is a commonality of content. I fuse academic research with personal stories and analogies so that everyone can relate to complex ideas. The intention is not only to educate and to inspire but to give tangible, actionable ideas to integrate into your life to be more successful!
