In this episode, I’m joined by Tanya Golash-Boza, who recently delivered her TEDx talk called “How to Kill a Neighborhood and Make a Profit” about how disinvestment in Black communities during the 20th century has led to gentrification in the 21st.

What does it mean to have a Big Idea and how can you find yours? I like to think of Big Ideas as ones that aren’t getting talked about in *your* circles, in your community or in your industry.

Many of us guest on podcasts and it’s an excellent way to increase your visibility and expand to new audiences.

With many of our speaking engagements and events forced to convert to online presentations and webinars, I know that a lot of us are excited to get back to in-person speaking (hopefully sometime in the later half of 2021).

Happy New Year! This is the 3rd year in a row I’ve done a trends episode for the start of the year.
info_outlineSpeaking Your Brand: A Public Speaking Podcast
I talk quite a bit on this podcast about signature talks - why you should have one and what goes into one.
info_outlineAlthough 2020 didn’t end up going quite as planned (understatement of the year), there are lessons I’ve taken from it that have made me and Speaking Your Brand as a business stronger and more resilient.
In this episode, Diane Diaz and I talk about:
- The impact COVID had on the business and our plans for the year
- The value of constraints
- What worked and what didn’t work this year
- 5 big lessons from 2020 (these are not the obvious ones)
- My commitments and strategic priorities
- What’s coming in 2021
This episode is the first in our new Goals & Planning series.
