Speaking
______________________________________________________
I am available to speak on aspects of the cultural transformation related to our new tools of connection: Twitter, blogging, and publishing. My talks are tailored to your audience, whether you need a short instructional presentation, to motivate your group, or to get a handle on the bigger picture of changing communication and marketing.
I have a special interest in e-books and digital downloads including audiobooks. You can read more about this area of my expertise on my blog here: This Extra Day.
People who need a web presence and don’t have time to waste chasing down endless links, PDFs, and sales pages, will benefit by learning online communication in a “brain-friendly” way. This is what I teach.
My work is especially beneficial to entrepreneurs, innovative business people, community builders, health providers, and creatives. I am available for lunch talks, group consultations, and short-session workshops.
While I teach the practical use of online communication in today’s world, all my talks and classes have an element related to what I call “The Brain-Friendly Method.” Participants learn what is required to be an effective online communicator while developing skills that prevent overwhelm and enhance the naturally occurring positive brain changes that come with the learning curves of technology.
To discuss my schedule and topics tailored to your needs, please send me an email at suzannastinnett@gmail.com. Put “Talks” in the subject line – that helps me stay organized. I will reply promptly with my phone number and we can take it from there. Thank you!
Suzanna Stinnett

Modern-day tools of success:
Using your right-brain intelligence to navigate today’s challenges
Join us September 28th at Unity in Marin (600 Palm Drive, Novato, 7:15 – 9:00 pm).
Learn how to draw on more of your natural intelligence by using a few brain tricks. The 21st Century requires an integration of left and right brain for more informed decision-making, innovation, and creative problem-solving.
While left-brain tasks have been the ruling norm for decades, we now live in a different world. Job seekers are finding that they need more entrepreneurial skills to be successful. Entrepreneurs are stretching beyond competition and into new innovations of collaborative alliances. We’re doing what humans are wired to do: Adapt in a crisis. How’s your adaptability? Do you draw on creative juices during your day? Have you played any games lately? See Daniel Pink’s book: “A Whole New Mind.”
I hope to see you there.
(Suzanna’s talks at Unity are by donation. Come as you are. )
