KEYNOTES & LEADERSHIP TRAINING
Reduce Stress and Burnout in Your Organization
With Maureen’s Keynotes
and Training
Your people are being asked to do more with less, and it shows up as stress, friction with coworkers, and good employees walking out the door. Maureen gives audiences a practical way through it. Using the Everything DiSC® model, she helps every person in the room identify their own style, recognize the styles around them, and notice how stress shows up differently for each one. Then she closes on something most leadership talks skip: how to actually take care of yourself so you can keep showing up for others.

About Maureen and Her
Keynotes and Leadership
Trainings
Maureen’s story starts in a place most speakers would leave out. She struggled with drugs and alcohol as a teenager and got sober at 24. More than 40 years later, that turning point is still the foundation of everything she teaches. Real change is possible, and the qualities that carry someone through recovery, like honesty, reliability, humility, and gratitude, are the same qualities that make people great leaders.
She went on to spend 30 years in corporate, most of them at a Fortune 200 company, working in HR, IT, communications, training, and change management. She led remote training teams and rolled out multi-million-dollar technology systems across the enterprise. Along the way she went back to school in her 40s, while working full time, and earned a BA in Psychology and an MS in Education, both Summa Cum Laude.
In 2013 she left corporate life and founded Emerge Leadership Academy, where she helps organizations turn bosses into leaders, reduce turnover, and increase productivity. She is an Everything DiSC® Authorized Partner, a Certified Professional Coach (CPC), a Distinguished Toastmaster, a Certified Technical Trainer (CTT+), the author of Emerge: 7 Steps to Transformation (No Matter What Life Throws At You!), and host of the Emerge. Evolve. Lead. podcast.
Audiences describe her as warm, funny, and refreshingly real. Event planners describe her as easy to work with.

Then everyone self-selects their style in a live phone poll and sees the mix of styles in the room. More polling questions about stress keep people engaged, and they leave with practical tools they can use at work and at home the very next day.

Signature Keynotes
Keynotes That Meet People Where They Are
Every keynote is tailored to your audience and your event goals.
SIGNATURE KEYNOTE
Personality Under Pressure
Understand your personality style, manage stress, and take care of yourself so you can keep showing up for others.
When pressure rises, people become more intense versions of themselves. Maureen teaches the four Everything DiSC® styles and how to recognize yourself in them. Everyone self-selects their style in a live phone poll and sees the mix of styles in the room. More polling questions show how stress, burnout, and compassion fatigue show up differently for each style. She closes with practical self-care that people will actually use.
Audiences will
Recognize their own DiSC® style and see the mix of styles in the room
Understand their strengths, fears, and common stress responses
Spot the signs of burnout and compassion fatigue in themselves and others
Leave with simple self-care strategies to respond instead of react
Ideal for: conferences, association meetings, all-staff events, wellness days, and helping professions. 60-minute keynote or 1 hour 40-minute workshop.
Elevate Your Inner Leader
Quiet the inner critic and lead with confidence.
Almost everyone carries two quiet fears: “I’m not enough” and “I won’t be loved.” The inner critic leans on both, and it gets loudest when people step up, like a new supervisor now leading former peers or a capable professional who feels like an imposter. Maureen shows audiences how to name that voice, answer it, and act anyway.
AUDIENCES WILL
Recognize the six common ways the inner critic talks to them
Use a simple five-step process to quiet it: decide, name it, dismiss it, build a new thought habit, and act
Retell their own story as a victor instead of a victim
Leave with three action steps toward a goal they have been putting off
Ideal for: new supervisors leading former peers, emerging leaders, women’s leadership events, and anyone working through imposter syndrome. Keynote or 2-hour workshop.
7 Steps to Transformation in Leadership
Lead yourself through change, no matter what life throws at you.
This talk grew out of Maureen’s book, Emerge: 7 Steps to Transformation. She has since refined the steps into the coaching process she uses with clients today. Leaders learn to change themselves first, so they can lead others through change.
THE SEVEN STEPS
Know your personality and leverage your strengths
Raise your energy and become the next version of yourself
Know your values and get into alignment
Reprogram old beliefs and patterns
Forgive and let the past go
Build your vision, strategy, and plan
Manage fear, failure, and success
Then put it all into practice as a leader, with emotional intelligence.
Ideal for: leadership teams, organizations in change, and professionals in mid-career transition.
.
Build EQ at Work
Grow your emotional agility in a fast-changing world.
Emotional intelligence is not fixed. It grows when you understand the mindsets that come naturally to you and stretch past them. Using the Everything DiSC® model of emotional intelligence, Maureen helps audiences see their natural mindsets, pick one to grow, and respond with agility when things are uncertain.
AUDIENCES WILL
Discover the emotional intelligence mindsets that come naturally to their style
Choose one mindset to stretch and practice
Step outside their comfort zone and respond with agility when things change
Ideal for: teams going through change, managers, and professional associations.
.
Give, Replenish, Grow
The human needs behind burnout.
The people who give the most are often the ones running on empty. Using the six human needs, Maureen helps audiences see which needs drive their choices, which ones have gone unmet, and why burnout is about unmet needs, not weakness. Live polling keeps everyone involved, and she closes with a simple way to keep giving without burning out: give, replenish, grow, and give more.
AUDIENCES WILL
Identify their top two human needs and how they drive everyday choices
Spot the need that has been running on empty
See rest as a responsibility, not a reward
Commit to one small shift to give in a way they can sustain
Ideal for: women’s leadership events, helping professions, nonprofits, and wellness programs.

Testimonials
What Clients and Audiences
Say About Maureen
Working with Maureen has been an absolute pleasure. She is a dynamic and engaging speaker whose energy and insight make a long lasting impact. We’ve worked with Maureen on multiple occasions. In our small group sessions, Maureen skillfully helped our team better understand our work personalities, creating an open and reflective environment that truly brought out the best in everyone. We were thrilled to welcome her back as a keynote speaker for our Home Visiting Conference, where attendees raved about her perspective-shifting messaging and meaningful take-aways. Maureen consistently delivers exceptional value and we look forward to partnering with her again in the future!

Great guidance in leadership training by Maureen. With the difference in personality types within our organization, Maureen was able to help our leaders identify certain traits in others to improve interpersonal communications resulting in a more efficient operation.
Jimmy Mac
Maureen is a fantastic instructor and made the material and content understandable. Had opportunity to work with other great leaders within our organization at this training.

I was very pleased to see the interaction between staff members who rarely have an opportunity to get together, and I am confident that they will continue to grow positive relations as a result of your workshop. It was a very successful day!
