The Value of Jan’s Keynote For Attendees:

The soft skills of business are many times overlooked, as we focus on marketing, management, administration, and the dozens of other tasks it takes to be successful. BUT these soft skills that include how we communicate with clients, staff, the general public and how we create a positive work environment are just as important. Your business is a people business, which means you need to make sure your interactions with people are welcoming and accepting. Knowing how to connect with people instantly, how to put them at ease, and how to diffuse tension is a useful asset for all professionals. This keynote will give them some unique and valuable tips for doing just that. Studies show that information plus emotion equals retention . . . laughter is a useful emotion!

Here’s what happy clients are saying
about Jan’s “Finding the Funny in Change” keynote!

“Jan is a pleasure to work with!   She tailored her keynote to our audience and made what she said (Finding the Funny in Change) relatable to them.  Jan’s humor was a terrific way to end our conference on a fun note. “ E.L., Program Coordinator, Chesapeake Regional Safety Council

“I booked Jan as our closing keynote for school transportation professionals and she did not disappoint!  She came out of the gate on fire and she really energized the crowd with her humor and comic wit.  It was a blast!  I would absolutely recommend Jan to be your next keynote speaker!”

C.E., President, Oregon Pupil Transportation Association

“Jan was a wonderful kickoff to our conference!  Not only did our attendees enjoy the laughs, she had a thoughtful take on the power of humor to create space for one another, acknowledge the absurdity of situations, and to help navigate change.  She was a top-notch addition to our program!”.

K.N., Institute Director, Colorado Municipal Clerks Association

On our evaluations, people really welcomed you as a speaker. If I have the chance, I definitely will be recommending your services in the future (okay to use me as a reference, if you need it.). I thought it worked out well, for you to demonstrate all those humor techniques on us (the audience); then tell the audience what you just did in the form of the main tips you just demonstrated. One other idea for the future: Have people do a reality check on their own state of mind towards the end of your presentation. On evaluations, people implied that they felt lighter; more ready to receive information for the rest of the day.L.K., President-Elect, Colorado Healthcare Risk Management Association
