Coming from a University and Broadcast background,
conference/convention speaking was a natural transition for me.
Most of my
convention/conference programs are an “Action Workshop” format where
participants can share their experience and thoughts through group
discussion and team reporting techniques. |
With aviation programs as diverse as fun banquet
speeches titled, "Living Successfully with a Pilot,” to conference
training on topics ranging from “Promoting Success for Women in General
Aviation” to “Using Aviation History to Market Your Airport,” I have
worked with General Aviation organizations as the Upper Midwest Aviation
Symposium, Nebraska Aviation Conference, Colorado Airport Operators
Association, and many others over the years.
Recently, I was thrilled to
earn this endorsement from Gary Ness, retired North Dakota Aeronautics
Director, “A few years ago Dr. Penny Hamilton was the featured final
night banquet speaker at the Upper Midwest Aviation Symposium, the
annual ‘Gathering of Eagles’ in North Dakota.
Her presentation was naturally focused on aviation and delivered with a
flare towards humor. Penny kept the aviators and non-aviators audience’s
attention on the subject matter. Her passion for the industry and her
lifelong attachment helps create a great combination which communicates
well to the audience. I highly recommend her as a speaker whether it is
classroom, general session and/or banquet.”
Examples of past program
topics for business and professional groups are “Public Relations for
Small Business,” “Managing Volunteers Effectively,” “Recruiting &
Motivating Volunteers,” “Preventing Burnout,” “Listening Skills,” “Fund
Raising Secrets,”
and “Improving Customer Service.”
Sample comments written on seminar evaluation forms
from past training programs: “Fun and super information,” “Well prepared
and very effectively presented,” “Very helpful with excellent examples
related to my business,” “Enjoyable and informative.”
Improving core communication and listening skills
helps others succeed. Often managers are promoted to supervisory
positions without introducing them to leadership and management skills
they need to be successful in their new role. Several research studies
reveal for every dollar invested in personal and staff development seven
dollars in increased productivity or health cost savings. Pretty good
return on your investment.
