The Magic of Being YOU on stage

Some of the most effective and impactful stories from speakers are when they are the butt of the joke; when their own foibles and uncertainties make the speaker more relatable to the audience, who can envision themselves doing the exact same thing. 

Meredith Oliver is a Keynote Speaker, author, and sales and digital marketing expert, who often works with homebuilders and their teams. She’s been around a construction site or two in her day, and knows how things work (which is what makes her signature elevator story even funnier).

On this episode of Standing Ovation, you’ll hear Meredith’s hilarious story whereby she almost stripped herself naked at the National Speakers Association annual conference – INFLUENCE.
