Speaking
From engaging talks that get your audience thinking, to workshops and custom engagements, we can collaborate to foster focus, drive, and engagement.
Building Tween and Teen Motivation In and Outside School
This topic can be presented in two ways, depending on your audience and time constraints:
As a highly interactive workshop for educators and/or parents of tweens and teens, focused on applying insights from motivation science to school and home
As a 15-minute TED-style talk, followed by open Q&A
In either format, participants will leave with new ideas and practical strategies.
Custom talks & workshops
You want to understand how to build sustainable motivation, engagement, and focus, whether for young people or adults. You're dissatisfied with approaches that fail to be meaningful to faculty, staff, families and young people.
Ensure your school or organization has the support you need to help people learn and thrive by engaging me in:
Collaboratively designing new initiatives to build in meaningful stakeholder buy-in from the ground up.
Identifying the right data (quantitative and qualitative) to track to allow you to monitor, evaluate, and learn from your initiatives.
Leading workshops on how to build sustainable motivation in school, at home, or in the workplace.
Reach out to discuss your group's specific needs -- if I'm not the right person to support you, I'll happily connect you to others in my network who would be.
