Keynotes

Prescription for a New You -- With Refills

In the struggle to serve others, you tend to ignore your own needs, until one day the emotional well is empty, and you feel there is nothing left to give. Emotional reserves are not inexhaustible, they need to be replenished. This keynote will re-energize, motivate and nurture the most important person in your life...YOU!

Walk Out Winners

The common definition of success -- coming in first or being the best -- suggests that only a select few can rise to the occasion. What about the rest of us? Discover a new way to think about winning. You already have all the resources you need to succeed.

The Courage to Be Imperfect

Internal beliefs can keep us from speaking our minds and trying new things. For example, if we think a boss or client expects perfection from us, does it feel "safe" to suggest an untested idea? Examine the thoughts that make risk-taking difficult, and learn how to step out comfortably into creativity and growth.

How are you doing in today's fast-paced, rapidly changing environment? Is your stress level exhilarating or debilitating? Are you taking risks and growing -- or merely "surviving" the multiple demands of each day? Find out how to make your life and work easier so you have more creative energy.

Life is an Attitude

Attitude does make a difference. It is not our genetic make-up, our beliefs, or our childhoods that give us a good or a bad one. It is our belief about self, the world, events that occur, and how we regard change that paint our perspective. It is our attitude that determines our future. It is up to us!

These five topics represent a small sample of Suzanne Vaughan's repertoire. She also offers training and coaching in leadership, presentation skills, and a variety of communication subjects. To achieve maximum impact, Suzanne weaves your unique business objectives and industry issues into each program. Choose a format that meets your needs -- from a one-hour motivational talk to a multi-day intensive workshop. Experience the link between risk-taking and improved business results.
