POETRY NOT POWERPOINT is a new series of conversations published as part of the podcast Here Comes Everyone.

Co-hosted by Kate Jenkinson who is an executive coach and poet, each episode will feature a guest poet. The guest will share a piece of their work as well as a poem that has inspired and influenced them.

Together we will explore their approach to verse and spoken word and talk about the value that they as artists bring to their audiences particularly to businesses.

As The Conference Bard I firmly believe business events would benefit from featuring more poetry and fewer powerpoint presentations. My hope is that hearing directly from some outstanding poets will convince you of this as well
