Explore Your Edgeness™ |
the intersection between discovery & potential

We often stay in our comfortable zone, it is secure, and we know what to expect. Here there are fewer opportunities to be judged, and less opportunity to fail. But life begins at the edge.
The place where you have not gone before is the place to explore, to experiment. To start challenging the “What if?” Questioning is just the beginning. We need to take some risks and not be prisoners to our barriers where our view is limited rather than limitless.
In an interactive session, Suzanne takes individuals or an organization on an adventure to challenge their perceptions of what can be achieved. She starts with encouraging the audience to look at themselves, personally and professionally.

Believe to your purpose |
live your purpose inside out
Purpose? Hooey. Often when we talk about purpose, it is perceived as a ‘soft’ or not tactical and is cast aside with the useless motivational mambo jumbo. Well, here is the thing, people with the highest sense of well-being, have a purpose. And that purpose is a conduit to maximize personal meaning.
When an individual has a purpose, they can design their entire career, enjoyment, and contribution to living in alignment with it.
How to transition your purpose into maximizing meaning depends on various elements of your character. In this interactive session, Suzanne F. Stevens will share a framework to evaluate how to get the most meaning from your life.

Please, Don't Volunteer |
your personal brand depends on it
Volunteers are fabulous people; they give time and energy to a task, for no pay often in an area where they have no expertise. Without a doubt, volunteers are needed, and should be admired and celebrated. Expectations on volunteers can be limited, and performance does not equate to professional ability.
We have all heard, and maybe even said: “We are JUST volunteers.” What does that really mean? Don’t count on me, I will get to it, I will fit it in when it is convenient.
Professional associations require something more than people to ‘fit it in.’ How do you get people to show up and commit to consciously contribute to the growth and sustainability of your association? Well, you make it about them.
In an interactive presentation, Suzanne will provide your volunteers in your organization or association with eight-step preparation guide of what is the best opportunity for them to contribute where they will be committed to the project’s success.

There are seven forms of recognition, and as a leader, knowing which to utilize, for whom, under which circumstance can ignite an individual to optimize their performance.
The audience will be inspired to evaluate how significant a role appreciation plays in increasing employee attraction, engagement, and retention.

“Suzanne Stevens is a most captivating and capable business trainer and motivational speaker. I’ve had the pleasure of engaging Suzanne to support corporate objectives at two companies (NGRAIN Corporation and Engenuity Technologies Inc.) and both sessions have been well worth the investment. I have never met anyone who is so keenly aware of her own presence and presentation. She is tuned to her audience, and provides exactly what is required to bring home the critical behaviour or objective.”

Suzanne Stevens spoke to our Annual Convention in Niagara Falls and just nailed it! One of the most difficult challenges in business today, the creation of a workplace culture where people want to work and want to stay, is no easy subject and can easily become cliché ridden and preachy. Suzanne attacked the issue with energy and critical insight. She demolished the myths around worker shortages and generational differences and then constructed an alternative approach that was seized upon by our franchisees. A post convention survey of all speakers placed her ahead of all our speakers in terms of giving them a new insight and a practical strategy for solving this challenge. Well done!
-
Suzanne is a bundle of positive energy with practical tips to share. She was highly engaging at our convention, getting everyone in the room interacting and leaving us with realistic ideas for recognizing and appreciating our team members. It was clear that Suzanne tailored her keynote address to our industry and company. I would highly recommend Suzanne as a professional speaker for any corporate event!
