Caroline delivers presentations ranging from a 20-minute keynote to a full-day workshop.  Some of her most requested topics include:

Resilience in Work and Life:  Overcome Obstacles to Your Success

Ideally, you want to be so prepared you don’t need to worry about resilience – you know how to focus, to muster peak performance at will, to maintain your energy. But sometimes you need to be resilient in the moment – to recover from a misstep at a meeting or a shaky start to a presentation. You also need to maintain your resilience in the long-term – market conditions change, your needs and goals become more demanding, you have more obligations vying for your time. Learn strategies to prepare for big events so you perform at your best. Learn how to recover if things do go wrong. Learn how to become more resilient day-to-day to achieve success despite change and challenging conditions.

Negotiating What You're Worth

Learn negotiating strategies for getting what you want in career and life! It’s not just about negotiating money -- you also negotiate for resources, deadlines, boundaries, information and more. Participants will learn a 3-stage process for negotiation and the 7 key steps to take in advance of any negotiation. We’ll also cover ways to incorporate negotiation practice into your daily routine. You can ask for what you want. You can ask for more.

Schmooze or Lose: Advanced Networking Strategies

Do you know what’s working and what’s missing with your network? Do you know how to introduce yourself and develop rapport with people? Are you clear? Are you memorable? We all have heard that networking is critical to a successful career. But what exactly do you do with all these people that you meet? Learn how to master all 4 stages of networking: research; approach; follow-up; request. Get practical suggestions on how to incorporate networking into your day-to-day. Learn to identify and attract the people who can support you. Get ideas for how to follow-up without pestering, to engage your network so they WANT to help you, and to create ways to collaborate for mutual benefit.

The 4 Elements of Personal Branding

We all hear about the importance of Personal Branding, but what does that mean exactly? There are 4 elements in branding, all of which you can maximize: reputation; actions; focus; style. Learn strategies to strengthen, refine, or change your brand. Learn how to tailor your brand to different audiences and goals. Learn different approaches to establishing your expertise, including case studies of real people who have successfully captured the attention of senior management, media, investors, and strategic partners.
