Panel Moderator

There’s a ton of wisdom in your organization. Your audience wants to hear from them. Also, experts outside the organization also abound. BUT-most panels are boring, talking heads.

Eileen can make the difference.

She will work with the panel in advance to determine questions and then facilitate a CONVERSATION between the panelists. She’ll become the roving reporter in the audience, fielding questions and weaving information together. The result: everyone is heard, engaged and informed.

  • I just want you to know that you were A-W-E-S-O-M-E! You kept the audience attentive, upbeat, and engaged throughout. I was in awe of your mastery of the master of ceremonies role. You definitely get my vote for MVP of LEAD2016."

  • Eileen has been my colleague and friend for decades. I do know what a great writer and speaker she is.... I've read most of her work, and have had the pleasure of hearing her deliver some of her wonderful presentations.

    What I didn't know, was how amazingly wonderful she was as an emcee! She truly wraps her arms around an audience and they love her for it. She recently was the glue that held a very large conference together. Her humor, her authenticity, and her homework made her a standout. By humor...she is amazingly great "on her feet"... she is so well read, and so able to think quickly, tickle the audience, and move the program along.

    What was outstanding was the "homework" she did to know each of the speakers that she was introducing. It was not enough to have a bio... she delved deeper and was able to get the audience excited about each speaker and she therefore paved the way for some excellent presentations because she was able to share with the audience some of the more insightful and personal aspects of each presenter.

    I was astounded at her ability to pull an audience in and "velcro" the various aspects of the conference together. She made it work, and can do the same for you!"
