We live in a world where we get to meet each other even before getting to see each other in person. Yes, I am talking about digital media. Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, websites… our visual identity is spread across the platforms and people check them out before meeting you up. As a speaker, it is important that you have powerful portraits and impactful videos to represent you online. They are the new age business cards and they just don’t reflect but talk for yourself. How can we make the most of this? How can we create solid visual identities for ourself? That is what we are going to converse about in my talk titled “The power of Visual Identity in professional speaking” Get ready to unlock the power of portraits and videos, to your advantage.

A speech about how to transform from a local/national speaker to a truly global speaker based on my own experience of becoming a global speaker. Your message deserves to be elevated to the world.

In this thought-provoking presentation, Warren will demystify how your future online customer is “thinking” and why every speaker can digitally transform their sales and marketing activities using a proven blueprint as a digital leader and utilise disruptive technology effectively.

You will learn my digital leadership methodology to empower you and your team to reach business objectives and as a result build a stronger company and more engaged communities.

Three takeaways:

• How a speaker must embrace the digital era and be a thought a leader.
• New ways of working and a future-oriented willingness to change.
• Develop areas for sharing skills and knowledge across your audience, industry and customers.
