Yes, metrics matter. But I’ve found another way to get raw audience feedback after a TALLsmall keynote or workshop. It happens in a place where truth is bared and not spared…

Here's a conference secret. Once our keynote or workshop ends and the side conversations wrap up, I make a beeline for the bathroom, slip into a stall, lock the door and listen.

"I just wanted to follow up…”

Avoid using this phrase. It is doormat language. It sounds apologetic, insecure and invites people to walk all over you.

Instead, ask where the project, proposal or decision stands.

Every keynote starts long before the first word.

It's the conversations in the hallway. The audience members who stop you afterward. The questions that continue over coffee.

Speaking isn't about delivering information. It's about creating conversations that continue long after you leave the room.

The funeral profession sits at the intersection of empathy, pressure, family dynamics, logistics, and emotion. How leaders communicate shapes trust, eases tension, and influences how families experience some of the hardest moments of their lives.

Keith Scott and I were honored to kick off the National Funeral Directors Association's Women's conference. Along with our TALLsmall keynote about communicating with charisma, compassion and clarity, we led two breakout workshops on taking charge of our Self-Talk.

Dollar Bread. Detox. Self Defense.

When you include everything, nothing stands out.

We see this in presentations, meetings and job interviews. In the desire to say it all, the message gets diluted.
