Tissa was the keynote speaker at our NYSE board diversity event and the feedback from our attendees was overwhelmingly positive. She provided a relevant, engaging and actionable keynote that helped change how our board diversity candidates talk about themselves and their careers. I highly recommend her for your event. We look forward to having her back.

We invited Tissa to keynote at our inaugural Leadership Conference. We were thrilled with her keynote. She targeted it precisely to our audience in an accessible, compelling and engaging way. She effectively used storytelling and humor to draw people in, and in the breakout sessions afterwards everyone was already brainstorming how to begin applying what they'd learned. We recommend her for your event - she is professional to work with behind the scenes, popular with the audience, and always on-point.
