Take the Podium Speakers Circle Program

Take the Podium Speakers Circle Take the Podium is designed to empower Your Crescendo clients who aspire to deliver the message of their purpose and its discovery through keynote speaking.

We have arranged for a series of speaker coaches, brand consultants to take eight (8) Finding Your Forte alum professionals to experience weekly modules to prepare them to deliver an 8 minute talk on December 30, Nia (which means purpose) at the Nia Building of Pittsburgh Yards. The program will progress through a number of modules designed to take participants from purpose to a speaker experience and through launching their speaking business offering. It will culminate with an 8-minute talk delivered at the Nia Forward! on December 30 at Pittsburgh Yards. The event is designed to highlight the pursuit of purpose through a series of inspiring talks, panels and workshops to share experiences of professionals in pursuit of purpose and encourage others to do so in 2025. The modules will be delivered in an experiential workshop style and select modules will be taped both to serve as learning tools and to capture content for social media promotion of the experience and speakers.
