Connie Dieken: Transforming Leaders into Influencers
What Makes Connie Unique
Keynotes custom tailored for each company, industry, and your unique situation
The challenges being faced by today's businesses oftentimes feel unsurmoutable. The economic climate amplifies peoples' stresses, increasing the urgency and need for results while at the same time diminishing attention spans even further. The reality is that this same situation is faced by every keynote speaker today with their audiences and the companies they keynote for.
Clients Demand Results. Connie Delivers.
Employees and audiences have a great need to walk away from every event with actionable steps to improve their performance, whether it be in leadership, communication or presentations.
Every Client Gets Immense Value Beyond a Simple Keynote
Prior to every event, Connie starts with a call to understand the specific needs and challenges that either the company or audience is facing. Everyone walks away with an understanding of the goals set and the actionable steps their audiences will receive. Connie researches the client and audience to ensure they are getting a practical keynote with business expertise to overcome their specific challenges.
Even after the keynote, Connie makes herself available to have follow-up conference calls to provide additional insight to ensure every client gets value beyond speaking.
Give your audience the skills to be influential leaders and communicators
"Connie is one of those rare speaking professionals that is easy to work with, goes the extra mile for all her clients and presents cutting-edge content."

Influencer of the Week: Mark Zuckerberg’s Girlfriend
She's a smart cookie. Medical student Priscilla Chan inspired her famously private boyfriend, Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg, to lead a public health revolution. Over dinnertime chat, Priscilla shared stories of how patients she interacted with that day were impacted by organ donations. Those who failed to find donors were dying. Those lucky enough to be on the receiving end of donations lived. Priscilla lit up like a firecracker when she shared stories about lives saved. "Why don't more people donate?" she wondered, "If only people knew about the critical shortage of organs for people who are desperately in need." That's where dinner talk turned to into action.

Influencer of the Week: E.L James is Tickled Pink
Let's set aside the color featured in her saucy book trilogy for a moment. The shade that's dominating the New York Times bestseller list. Literary sensation E.L. James is tickled pink. The author of Fifty Shades of Grey is simultaneously revving the engines of women and upending the publishing world. Originally a self-published author – and a first-timer, at that – James is stunned that she's influencing the way books are bought and sold. In a statement to the BBC, James calls it "an extraordinary and wholly unexpected adventure." Fifty Shades began as a free e-book, allowing for discrete buying for those who didn't want others to know they were reading erotica. After eager book club members started recommending it, the trilogy exploded and went viral. (Not to be confused with the naughty acts she writes about, of course.)
