Event planners trusted us with these stages last week. They didn't have to wonder if the speaker would land, if the performer would read the room. That's not luck. That comes from experience. That's the Gotham Advantage.

* Workplace kindness expert Shola Richards led a motivational workshop for hundreds of entrepreneurs in the Heartland.

* In Nashville, Diane Warren, the songwriter behind some of the most recorded songs in history, shared her journey in a fireside chat. Clint Pulver brought his signature drumline experience, and Scarlet Keys spoke on the craft of songwriting. All three were part of a financial conference that clearly knew how to program a stage.

* Grammy Award-winning Lady A performed a private set in Nashville for a leading AI company.

* Ben Nemtin empowered a nonprofit association to make the impossible possible.

* Drum As One set the tone in Las Vegas during a technology sales kickoff.

* Erin Stafford led a session in Denver for an insurance association on how to handle stress when "no" isn't an option.

A few weeks ago, we hit pause and got the entire Gotham team together in person.

Same people we talk to every day. Very different energy when you’re in the same room. Good food. A little karaoke. A lot of laughing. Long conversations. And that quiet reminder that the best work always starts with trust and real relationships.

As the year wraps up, we’re carrying that with us. Wishing everyone a holiday that gives you space to unplug, reset, and come back sharp.

Happy Holidays from Team Gotham!

Some companies hand new hires a laptop and a login. At Gotham, there’s also a book:

“How to Win Friends and Influence People” by Dale Carnegie.

It’s been part of how this company operates since day one. Not as a “nice-to-have,” but as a shared language for how we work with people. Clients. Partners. Each other. Sales conversations. Hard moments. Negotiations.

The principles still show up everywhere. Yes, it’s old. Yes, some of the wording feels dated. And yes, it still works.

Because when you understand people better, the business side takes care of itself.

Most leaders don’t struggle with strategy. They struggle with what’s happening in their own heads. That’s where Dr. Andrea Hollingsworth changes the game.

She teaches rooms full of executives how to stop white-knuckling their way through uncertainty and instead lead from a place that’s calm, grounded, and actually sustainable.

Not theory. Not clichés. Actual tools that help leaders differentiate between what’s theirs to carry and what isn’t.

And when Andrea guides a room, something shifts. People exhale. Shoulders drop. Leaders remember they’re human first… and that clarity is something you can train, not wait for.

If your 2026 event needs a speaker who can quiet the noise, strengthen emotional resilience, and send people back to their teams more centered than they arrived, Andrea is the one. Bring Dr. Andrea Hollingsworth to your 2026 stage.

Your leaders will walk out steadier, sharper, and better equipped for what’s next.

What’s the worst news you can get backstage? Your headliner isn’t in the building… yet.

It happens. Flights get delayed. Weather turns, someone’s “five minutes out” for thirty minutes. But here’s the thing most planners won’t admit out loud: The real panic isn’t the artist. It’s the dead air.

That’s where Ben, our neighborhood-friendly music agent, steps in with the playbook you wish you had before things got weird. He’s talking real fixes. Not “turn the Spotify playlist up a little louder.” Actual, save-the-show moves that keep the room alive when time isn’t on your side.

Because great events aren’t just about who’s on stage. They’re about what you do in the ten minutes where everything goes sideways. Watch the reel, steal a trick or two, and breathe easier the next time a plane lands late.

If you want a music partner who knows how to keep the show moving, even when your run of show doesn’t, explore the world of Gotham Music for your next event!
