THE KEYNOTE YOUR AUDIENCE WILL BE TALKING ABOUT ALL YEAR. IT’S MOTIVATIONAL, HUMOROUS AND ENGAGING, BUT WHAT MAKES IT POWERFUL IS THAT IT’S IMMEDIATELY ACTIONABLE.

Take-Away Message #1

Laura’s super-charged signature series is centered on being “prepared for partnership” while turning the “optional into opportunity,” because as Laura reminds us all, “You ever know when the next conversation will be the conversation to change your life or that of someone else!”

Laura challenges her audience to ask, “What can I do for you?” instead of the more negative — “What can you do for me?” interpretation of networking. She explains how positive, powerful networking involves mentoring and leading both inside and outside of the office.

And, Laura Schwartz incorporates your conference programming and year-round engagement into examples where Laura’s tips can be used to increase results for every member of your audience.

When the event is over, these lessons can be carried back to the office and put to work in professional and personal settings. Eat, Drink & Succeed motivates, engages, and most importantly, it drives action.

Whether a first-time attendee or a seasoned veteran, attendees will feel empowered to take every facet of the conference and make it work to their full advantage and yours.

Laura provides the tools and techniques that motivate attendees to capitalize on all social and business interactions at the conference so that they, too, can turn relationships into partnerships and ideas into realities.

A UNIQUE & DYNAMIC PRESENTATION ON LEADERSHIP IN TIMES OF SUCCESS, TURBULENCE AND CHANGE.

Take-Away Message #2

As any great leader will attest, leading in successful times is easy. It’s what a leader does in times of turbulence and change that sets them apart. In this one-of-a-kind program, Laura Schwartz shares little-known stories from more than 200 years of U.S. Presidents and First Ladies to inspire great leadership in any circumstance.

Laura Schwartz adapts these non-partisan stories to make relevant and relatable comparisons to your company or association, and offers tips that attendees can immediately put into action in their personal or professional lives.

Laura uses her unique White House experience to share valuable takeaways and inspiring stories from the earliest White House inhabitants, along with first-hand accounts of defining moments during the Clinton administration.

She illustrates real solutions from the successes and failures in leadership that we all can practice in our daily lives as we work with our customers and colleagues and share within our communities and families.

DESIGNED IN RESPONSE TO REQUESTS FOR A PROGRAM ABOUT HER PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL JOURNEY, THIS KEYNOTE EMPOWERS AUDIENCES WITH 5 PILLARS OF ENGAGEMENT THAT CAN CHANGE THEIR LIVES.

#: Take-Away Message

From her start as a small-town girl with a speech impediment to becoming the youngest female presidential appointee in White House history and eventually an international professional speaker and television commentator, Laura delivers relevant and relatable moments of challenges and success.
