MBA Meeting Aug 7 2024

I presented on brand and business storytelling.

I am here for you.

I was honored to serve as a guest speaker at the Mebane Business Association meeting in August 2024, where I spoke about how to pilot your brand with business storytelling. It takes work to develop your business storytelling “muscle,” but it’s worth it. Research shows people spend more on products when they are associated with a story because this type of storytelling generates customer loyalty and trust.

If you are looking for a speaker for your next business meeting or you need a team building workshop before the end of the year, just reach out. I have a large library of topics that I cover, such as CliftonStrengths®, growth mindset, purpose, values, time management, and entrepreneurship.

 

 

Why hire with me?

I’ve been described as a dynamic speaker who enjoys connecting with her audience. I bring a wealth of experience from my work in the nonprofit, corporate and entrepreneurial worlds. With that in my pocket, I can tailor my presentation based on your needs and setting.

 

What do my participants say?

Here’s some feedback from past participants:

“When Jo Heather walks in, her confidence and smile light up the room. Her enthusiasm and passion are contagious. Jo Heather spoke at an IF Gathering Women’s Simulcast Event put on by Jennie Allen, presented at Tabernacle Methodist Church. The audience was inspired by her authentic motivational message. She is one phenomenal speaker!”

– Kerri B. MorrisLCMHC, Tabernacle Methodist Church of Greensboro, NC pastor’s wife

“Jo Heather’s Fill Your Joy Tank” retreat was fun and inspiring. Her joy-themed program offered insightful discussions, interactive activities and tools as to living a joy-filled life. I especially enjoyed the breakout sessions and “Paint a Picture with Words” exercise, even though writing a poem or lyric isn’t one of my strengths. Jo Heather’s coaching expertise and passionate support were evident as she led the three-hour virtual retreat. Should you have an opportunity to attend Jo Heather’s “Fill Your Joy Tank” retreat or work with her from a whole life coaching perspective, I would recommend it.”

“I recently had Jo Heather C. Dodson as a guest coach for my writer’s group, the Warrior Writers. My students thoroughly enjoyed every minute. They felt heard and seen, as Jo Heather answered each question making it relevant to them and their journey. I rarely see such personalization in coaching and it was refreshing and inspirational. Jo Heather, shared applicable wisdom that encouraged them to new levels of excellence in their journey to becoming Authors and accompanied it with a beautiful slide presentation. She is very professional, authentic and knowledgeable. An outstanding communicator! We are looking forward to having her back!”
