NEW SERVICE OFFERED –Hire Barbara to be the EMCEE at your next meeting!
I have just started doing some Emceeing for several large clients like Guideposts, and I am LOVING it! I have developed a “theme within their theme” for each of the general sessions for about five minutes that really facilitate community within the group. i have also requested that when I introduce someone, they tell me something fun and personal about themselves instead of all the “business” stuff that everyone already has in their binders. This, too, has added warmth and bonding within very diverse groups who often do not know one another. In groups that already work together, these additions have created a deeper trust level as well as a lot of fun, so the attendees become much more engaged in the meeting itself as well as developing a new level of community and sharing.
One of my strengths in presenting is that through my own authenticity and creativity, I am able to create a level of trust and caring as well as a sense of joy and openness. I have long seen this happen in my keynotes and workshops; however, I did not realize it would translate into Emceeing until I had the privilege of working with the Guideposts gathering.
Brian Porter, the President of Guideposts Foundation, said this about their national meeting,”The Guideposts Gathering in November was tremendously successful. Our emcee was Barbara Glanz, who did an outstanding job. We were grateful for the tone she set for each session by suggesting a theme or key words–Gratitude, Appreciation, Joy, and Enthusiasm.” I truly was the encouraging spirit that brought everyone together …..and I loved it! 😉 It was my motto of “Spreading Contagious Enthusiasm™ in action.
