Keynote 1

Becoming the Warrior:  Strategies for Achieving your Goals and Dreams

We all have passion-fueled dreams that may seem too bold or too risky.  We strive to meet our goals (either for our organization or personally). However, we often feel that our goals and dreams are out of reach, that we are not ready, we don’t have the time, or maybe we’re just not good enough. In this 45-minute keynote, Jenn Donahue inspires and motivates the audience to defeat their fears and go out and achieve great things.

Keynote 2

A Bridge Too Far?: The Impact of Trust on Corporate Culture and Retention

If you’re trying to be the same leader you were ten, five, or even three years ago, it’s likely not resonating with your team. Instead of asking the question, "Why are my people still leaving?" Jenn reveals that the real question is, “How is your leadership style working for you?" In this 45-minute keynote, Jenn Donahue provides the audience with

the keys to retain, grow and inspire their workforce.

Hi, I'm Jenn.

It is my mission to help create a new generation of leaders who, like myself, believe they were put on this world to make a difference. Through speaking authentically, providing mentorship,

and sharing the lessons I've learned, my talks inspire and motivate people to overcome their fears and fulfill their greatest dreams. 

I believe that everyone has the capacity to become an agent of change in their own lives and in the world. 

All people can be great leaders and I will help your audience uncover who they genuinely are so that they can be a leader others want to follow.
