A Message from Michelle
Having worked with organizations large and small, I have heard consistently about their people challenges. If you are like most companies today, you are striving to grow your leaders, retain your top talent, and engage your employees. That is what I do! I help organizations leverage their greatest assets – their people.
I am an interactive, highly energetic and engaging speaker. I get the audience involved and often bribe them with prizes to participate. I tell stories and take a conversational tone. I am not scripted and never have the exact same presentation twice. My talks are prescriptive, meaning people walk out with ideas they can immediately implement to make a difference tomorrow. I strive to make things effortless for my clients. I am easy to work with and very client service oriented. If a client wants me to go to a reception, do a book signing, speak with a VIP, sit at a certain table, etc… the answer is always “yes!”
I am a connection creator and my programs tackle the concept of connection in different ways. I make it easy for my clients by providing them with what they need often before they ask. I will partner with you and any of your sponsors to enable you to maximize my inclusion in your event.
I look forward to working with you,
-Michelle Tillis Lederman
