It’s about the energy
When my audience is feeling confident, connected, entertained, and inspired…
That’s how I define a successful talk.
And they’re all “talks” — even if it’s a short presentation — it’s a conversation between me and them.
It’s a conversation designed to change something. Maybe it’s a small change, but usually it’s something pretty big. Something that reveals an entirely new perspective for them.
Something that leads to living with more purpose and joy.
After all, isn’t that why we’re all here?

Love Works: The Science Behind Leading High-Impact Teams in Today’s Workplace
The 3 Essentials for Effective Leadership – with a Surprising Plot Twist – Based on Research with 200,000+ Employees
From Jessica:
This new talk is focused on something I discovered in my research with more than 200,000 employees.
I didn’t believe it at first, and I certainly didn’t think I could get away with talking about it. It was love — they were looking to feel more love from leaders at work — especially since their life priorities changed as a result of the pandemic.
That led me to create a new leadership system centered around the 3 essential leadership behaviors that drive long-term performance in high-impact employees.
And I’m so excited to share it with you!
