KEYNOTES

Creativity Unscripted

Let’s dive into a playground of creativity… the kind that takes you back to days when big ideas ruled, friendships were instant, and every “what if” was a new adventure. We’re not talking glue sticks and glitter; we’re talking about a powerful mindset that fuels brilliant, free thinking. Mary will guide you through her signature DREAM, FEEL, CREATE framework designed to ignite creativity, craft extraordinary outcomes, and inspire an approach that embraces innovation at every level. This session will equip you with the tools to dream and implement those dreams into actionable strategies that drive your organization forward.

The Power of Possibility

The future belongs to those who think differently. Are you ready to see what’s possible? Creativity IS the key to unlocking bold leadership, innovation, and problem-solving in any field. In this engaging keynote, Mary challenges conventional thinking and introduces a fresh approach to unlocking untapped potential. She will guide you through an interactive experience designed to rewire the way you think, spark unconventional ideas, and build a mindset that thrives in uncertainty… Equipping you with the tools to shift perspective, reimagine what’s possible, and bring breakthrough ideas to life.

Culture of Women

Do we celebrate women for their unique achievements, or reward a singular success? Do we applaud individuality, or encourage conformity? The answers lie in the language we use, the actions we take, and the support we show for each other. This is the beginning of a movement to bring empowering strategies into the places women thrive; today, into tomorrow, and for years to come.

Unscripted Brilliance

This is an invitation to break free from outdated expectations, embrace bold thinking, and build a culture where women elevate each other. We’ll explore the confidence challenges that start in youth, the winding paths of success, and the power of creativity to unlock unexpected possibilities. Through Mary’s signature framework, you’ll learn how to harness your brilliance and challenge the status quo.

WORKSHOP

The Connection Workshop

Mary Messner teams up with master facilitator, Erin Fajen, for this engaging workshop, designed to help you build and deliver impactful in-person presentations. This isn’t your average workshop. We combine knowledge sharing, demonstration, and facilitated practice. We dig deep into storytelling, audience engagement, confidence, and content. There will be laughter, learning, and maybe even a little bit of fire.

The Common Q&A
  • Who? This workshop is ideal for a 6-8 hour session, and designed for anyone delivering presentation with a goal of creating a strong connection with their audience — internal or external.
  • How much? Your investment is flexible based on number of participants. A discovery call will provide clarity. 
  • How many? A group of 12-20 individuals is ideal. Larger group sizes are easily accommodated with additional presentation coaches to ensure a quality learning experience.
