KEYNOTE & WORKSHOP
PRESSURE COOKER CONFIDENCE & THE ME YOU WANT TO BE
Pressure Cooker Confidence/The Me YOU Want to Be:
Confident Leadership… & more!
I’ve spent my life walking into stressful rooms where I wanted to do magnificent things but I found it hard to do normal things, like breathe. Have you had that experience? This session teaches how to go from “I can’t breathe” to “I’m regularly doing magnificent things.”
Using techniques honed from decades of acting, combined with new science about how to best be human & a dash of current engagement strategies, Pressure Cooker Confidence/The Me YOU Want to Be explores how to create internal power in moments where humans typically feel powerless.
Learning to create internal power has massive benefits for the individual. It also creates benefits in the organizations where these individuals work.
We focus on creating your own personal list of rules to guide better behaviour & motivate transformation in your life & at work.
Key Take aways:
- Roger’s Rules turned into YOUR rules like: Own the Room, Fight to be Positive, The Way you THINK about stress determines its impact on you…
- Find power within yourself to tackle the hardest to change behaviours & attitudes
- Become ’the me YOU want to be’
“The best professional development day I’ve had at Microsoft! The keynote (Pressure Cooker Confidence) and Building MudPie Kitchens for Kids was so successful, my boss wants to do it for the top executives in Seattle! Amazing!” – Henry Watson, Microsoft.
KEYNOTE & WORKSHOP
The Age of Engage: How to CREATE ENGAGEMENT
This session looks at what engagement is, why we want it, and how to CREATE engagement. This session walks the talk: it not only discusses engagement but also teaches how to create it at work & in your life.
In the 90’s, engagement was a fuzzy, feel good term that really meant very little. Flash forward to the present &, luckily, things have changed. Engagement can be measured & the results are staggering.
Data from Gallup, Harvard, 2018 Global Trends in Engagement, etc show how a little focus on engagement can turbocharge bottom-line results, whether those results are increased productivity, increased profit, better communication, stronger team bonds, better learning & retention etc…
Engagement is the secret sauce that makes your work & life magic. Participants will walk away with tangible tools that will inspire them to be more engaged which will lead to being more productive, creative, & successful in their work & life!
Key Take aways:
- Learn why engagement is so powerful & why we want it all through our lives & work.
- Understand how to create & promote active participation in your teams, organization & life.
- Discover how to be more engaging & harness this power for improved creativity, productivity, & bottom-line results at work & in your life.
“The Age of Engage: How to create Engagement presentation was well received & the audience was highly engaged.
You have helped to make this year’s Regional Business Meeting one of the best ever!
Thank you!”

KEYNOTE & WORKSHOP:
THE POWER, PURPOSE, & PROFIT OF PLAY
I’m on a mission to take play out of the gutter & put it into the spotlight where it belongs. While we say that we honor play, the proof is in our actions. & when important things need to be discussed & decided, play is sent outside to the playground while the adults stay inside to do the important work. That attitude needs to be turned on its head & this session does exactly that.
Learn how central to human existence play is.
Learn what happens to humans when we discard play.
Learn how to achieve your goals using playfulness as a guide. And do all that while playing to learn about play… which is truly the best way to learn for humans.
After this surprisingly profound session, people often come up to me with tears in their eyes as they talk about their conflicted relationship to play & how they now will act differently with their children, their spouse &/or their colleagues. Play is transformative. Play is revolutionary. And this revolutionary, transformative power is waiting for you, your family, your friends, your teams, your organization…
Key Take Aways:
- Gain tangible strategies to help incorporate play & a playful mindset into the most important aspects of work & life
- Design your work environment, training sessions, & meetings to increase knowledge retention, encourage creativity, promote wellness, & much more
- Learn to reverse society’s concept of play so that you can use play to create power.
- Discuss successful case studies where play made all the difference
“I wanted to quickly touch base to let you know that I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about your session on the Power of Play. That has really helped me have a mind shift. When I thought about it, I realized that way too often I would say “Go ask your Dad” when my boys asked me to go outside & play. I saw this as a great opportunity to wash dishes, do chores, get some work done etc. Your session really helped me better understand that play is equally important to me & to them. I set a goal last week to find time every day to play with my kids. Even if it was for 5 minutes. There was always an opportunity if I chose to look for it. Since then I spent the weekend playing slip & slide baseball, tag & taking the kids for a bike ride. Even on a crazy Monday morning (when usually I would let you know “there is not one moment in a busy school day morning to play!”) we got ready early & went outside for 5 minutes of cartwheels before getting in the car to go to school.
I am so excited about this I had to reach out to you. I can already feel the fun coming back to my house, & my stress melts away when we are playing. I’ve found in just a few days my frustration levels have dropped & we are opening new lines of communication within our family.
I have made a promise to myself to continue to find time every day, because my kids & my family are worth it 🙂
Thank you for sharing your knowledge in such an exciting, interesting, relatable & inspiring way. Beyond grateful that we have the opportunity to work with you & your team”. – Laura Warren, Rare Affairs Events

Magnetic Communication for Networking… & Beyond
Networking can fill our hearts with dread. I invent new ways of sweating when it comes to networking situations and I don’t think I’m the only one!
Wouldn’t it be way better if you could magnetize people to you? So that when you walk into a room without any colleagues or friends present, you are still able to have the best time and thus attract others to you? This is why I wrote this session. I have taken all the good and bad experiences I have collected over 25 years of being paid to create engagement within groups of strangers and summarized them in this talk.
Creating magnetic communication usually means changing the way you think about these situations. And then creating rules or guidelines to help you stay on track.
This session outlines Roger’s Rules for creating magnetic communication which leads to magnetic engagement which leads to you being far happier and more effective when connecting with others in these situations. Which makes networking and communication much more valuable for you and your organization.
