What’s Inside the Premium Keynote Program

The flow of the program will be adapted to your current level of expertise and commitment. 

Analysis and feedback

You have written a first draft. A first draft is never perfect, maybe not even good. That's totally fine. Let's analyse and discover the diamond in a rought to work on. We discuss topics, theme, structure, storytelling and see how we can make it better.

Think about this

You don't need to become an extraverted , high-energy speaker to have impact.  

This is a big BS for a lot of introverted people. Lasting impact on stage starts with a strong story that is told by a congruent personality. 

Reflect if this is you

Writing a keynote that has an impact and is sustainable for you as a speaker, takes more time than most people think. If you want a quick fix, this program isn't for you. Creating a strong story and becoming a speaker requires commitment. Read my conditions to enter this program.
  • Mindset and reflection time: Crafting a keynote that has impact requires focus, reflection and research. It is trial and error. Embracing feedback. There is no straight line in creating a keynote. If you don't share this mindset and are not prepared to reflect, think and embrace your uncertainties, then this program is not for you. 

  • Scheduling our sessions:  Before we start, we discuss our time schedule. Ideally, we have a session every 2 weeks. But this rhythm only works when you are committed in scheduling extra time in between sessions to work on improving your draft. Are you committed in doing homework? 

  • Writing versus speaking: Writing is speaking with your hands. It allows you to reflect on what you want to communicate. If you speak, you have less insight into what you just communicated. If you don't want or like to write, if you insist in sticking with outlines, keywords and excuses for not preparing a written draft then this program is not for you. 

  • You believe in investing in yourself: My 1:1 programs are exclusive for people who really want to invest in their growth. And those who understand that an expert with decades of real life experience in the industry, who continuously studies to stay updated is worth the investment. My work is not for people who use time as a measure for pricing.
