Stand Out with Unshakeable Confidence - Karen Laos

Aug 24

Today is a wonderfully empowering and insightful look into one woman’s journey from corporate to keynotes. Karen Laos and I first crossed paths when we joined a Speaker Sisters network in late 2019, early 2020. Over the years I have had the honor of seeing Karen’s incredible transformation as she has carved her own path as a keynote speaker and leadership coach equipping women to stand out with unshakable confidence. She specializes in communication: executive presence and compelling messages and does a beautiful job of sharing this in her book, Trust Your Own Voice: Growing Your Influence Through Confident Communication.

Karen is quite possibly one of the biggest cheerleaders championing female business leaders to own their value and find their voice so they can be seen and heard. I mean… does this not sound like my kind of lady?! She also works with teams to create cultures of trust and function at their best and has coached leaders at Facebook, Google, Netflix, Uber, Sephora, Sony, Microsoft, Fidelity, Charles Schwab, Trip Advisor, Bacardi, Levi, and more.

Her fun, encouraging, and results-oriented style is evident today, especially when she shares about a “no” that she was able to turn into an even better offer… all involving Donald Miller, CEO of StoryBrand.
