I was not prepared to be BLOWN AWAY by Carey and her presentation.
I’ve been in this industry a long time and have heard many keynotes (some from pretty famous people) and this one definitely moved to Number 1 on my list. Amazing presentation: her ease with the way she connected with the audience, the way she made people laugh and feel as though they were living her story with her was seamless. Everyone was enthralled which was evident by the long line that lasted for nearly two hours for Carey to sign her book.
Everyone wanted her to sign their book and she graciously stayed to the very end until the very last person had their book signed. Not only did she do that, she also took time to answer people’s questions and offer advice to these women for their own personal women’s leadership journey. There was not one ounce of “diva” in her at all – everyone felt connected to her. This morning we are receiving nothing but tremendous feedback from our attendees on how great the event was and asking for us to do it again annually – which is definitely pleasing for our Executive Officers to hear. Carey was a huge part of that feedback. – Maureen Sojka, Marketing Event Manager, Conner Strong & Buckelew
