Mastering the Art of Keynotes: Deconstruct and Reconstruct for Maximum Impact

Join this content-rich and interactive session designed specifically for you to take your keynote to the next level. Whether you’re a seasoned expert or new to professional speaking, this session will provide invaluable insights into the art of designing and delivering a memorable main stage address.

During this engaging workshop, Lenora will take you behind the scenes of the keynote she delivered at Influence 2024 and show you how to apply proven methods to your own keynote. By deconstructing her presentation, she will show you how every element—stories, pacing, audience interaction, visual aids and music—plays a crucial role in creating a lasting impact on your audience. You’ll learn how to determine which of your stories will strike the right balance of information and emotion; how to craft transitions that keep your audience engaged; and how to close your presentation with a memorable impact.

You’ll have the opportunity to work along with your colleagues on your own keynote, whether it’s one you’ve already given or one you’re currently developing. You’ll learn how to reconstruct your keynote, incorporating proven strategies and techniques that resonate with today’s audiences and leave a lasting impression.

Whether you’ve been delivering keynotes for years or are preparing for your first, this workshop will meet you where you are.

- Explore a structure and process that provides the foundation for impactful presentations that reflect a unique style.

- Elevate their keynotes to the next level.
