General Booking Information

    • For speaking engagements or interviews in North Carolina, I will drive if they are within the Triangle area (Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill).

    • Fly into the host location at least 4-5hours before the meeting.

    • Be picked up at the airport, driven to the hotel, and vice-versa.

    • Stay at a Marriott property or property with a peaceful and serene environment.

    • Presentation for 60 to 90 minutes (unless the meeting is a training, facilitation, or complete teaching/coaching session) - preferably between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m., and not during meal time.

    • Willing to fly out early the next day after the presentation or the same day as the presentation if the meeting is completed early.

    • Live, in-studio, or face-to-face formats are highly preferred. I can also engage in virtual/phone format.

    • Although I do not need specific and detailed interview questions in advance, interview goals, story angles, and pointers are helpful.

    • I can accommodate any time frame, although I am more eloquent after 9.00 a.m.

  • My speaking experience in many different environments reveals that having a good set-up is integral to how well a message is received.

    As such, my room set-up requests are:

    • I prefer to use my laptop (PC).

    • At least one projector, screen setup either to the left or right, and a clicker.

    • A stage is needed for large audiences.

    • Sound to be connected directly from the laptop to house speakers.

    • Microphone preferences: Wireless lapel or wireless headset.

    • Please no food service during the presentation. Reserve to before or after.

    • Please no recording devices unless discussed in advance and consent granted.

    • Please schedule at least 30 minutes for me to visit the speaking area and perform a sound check.

    • Please do not post content (slides, handouts) online for download or include any slides in handouts for the audience without discussing it in advance
