See keynotes with Laura SchwartzLaura’s super-charged signature series is centered on being “prepared for partnership” while turning the “optional into opportunity,” because as Laura reminds us all, “You ever know when the next conversation will be the conversation to change your life or that of someone else!”
Laura challenges her audience to ask, “What can I do for you?” instead of the more nega-tive — and more common — “What can you do for me?” interpretation of networking. She explains how positive, powerful networking involves mentoring and leading both inside and outside of the office. And, she incorporates your conference programming and year-round engagement into examples where Laura’s tips can be used to increase results for every member of your audience. When the event is over, these lessons can be carried back to the office and put to work in professional and personal settings. Eat, Drink & Succeed motivates, engages, and most importantly, it drives action. Whether a first-time attendee or a seasoned veteran, attendees will feel empowered to take every facet of the conference and make it work to their full advantage and yours.
Laura provides the tools and techniques that motivate attendees to capitalize on all social and business interactions at the conference so that they, too, can turn relationships into partnerships and ideas into realities.
As any great leader will attest, leading in successful times is easy. It’s what a leader does in times of turbulence and change that sets them apart. In this one-of-a-kind program, Laura shares little-known stories from more than 200 years of U.S. Presidents and First Ladies to inspire great leadership in any circumstance. Laura adapts non-partisan stories to make relevant and relatable comparisons to your company or association, and offers tips that attendees can immediately put into action in their personal or professional lives.
Laura uses her unique White House experience to share valuable takeaways and inspiring stories from the earliest White House inhabitants, along with first-hand accounts of defining moments during the Clinton administration. She illustrates real solutions from the successes and failures in leadership that we all can practice in our daily lives as we work with our customers and colleagues and share within our communities and families.
Laura often customizes this keynote to focus solely on Women Leadership and Empowerment and has delivered to standing ovations at internal corporate resource groups focusing on female development in the workplace and community.
From her start as a small-town girl with a speech impediment to becoming the youngest female presidential appointee in White House history and eventually an international professional speaker and television commentator, Laura delivers relevant and relatable moments of challenges and success.
She outlines how we can all turn to these 5 Pillars for answers, leadership and development throughout all stages of our lives. This compelling, comedic, motivational program will leave every audience feeling inspired and ready to engage with their life!
It was not only your message and how you connected directly with our members and our mission, but your delivery was engaging and mesmerizing! You made everyone feel connected.

Laura is an outstanding communicator as I know from her sparkling appearances on Frost Over The World. As she says ‘Your career isn’t 9-5, it’s 24-7’ and she’s living proof of just how well that works.
Your presence helped vitalize the whole presentation, and thanks to your contribution, we saw great media coverage outcome from the CES 2020.
You were a pleasure to work with and a great addition to our general session! Thank you so much for your contribution to our largest attended summit yet!
