“Diane pointed out several things that will help me engage my audience better, while communicating the topic more thoroughly. She offered great insight into both the delivery of the speech and the structure so that my audience hears a clear call to action.“~Bill Svoboda, owner Coed Monkey

What to expect:
At the Create a Keynote in a Day Workshop, you can bring a speech material that you already have, or arrive with a blank sheet of paper! All other materials, breakfast, lunch and snacks are included! Please bring your computer if you prefer working on a computer (I do!).
You will learn the step-by-step process and techniques, work on your speech in bite-size chunks, practice your speech and get feedback on content. We will be working at Diane’s dining room table, in the adjoining living room, and if weather permits, you might even get to sit outside! Diane does have a cat, a very helpful husband and a teenage son who may make appearances for food.
