Keynotes & Workshops

A keynote that
changes the room
and, more often
than not, the calendar.

Dr. Scott speaks at Fortune 500 leadership retreats, women’s conferences, medical meetings and governors’ summits. Evidence-based, high-energy, conversational — the kind of keynote where the audience leaves with two or three specific things they will actually do Monday morning.

Or something bespoke

Every organization is different.
Every program is designed.

Program planning begins with listening — to your leaders, your stakeholders and, where appropriate, an anonymous survey of attendee knowledge, attitudes and behaviors. Content can be provided in advance for approval or regulatory review.

For your audience, the message is never “stress is bad.” The message is that stress is a process — one that, once understood, can be put to work.
