About this talk

Fireside: Building Teams

30 min

A relaxed conversation

Some rooms do not want a keynote. For awards nights, leadership dinners and smaller offsites, the fireside format puts Hannah in conversation with your host, followed by open questions from the audience.

How the session runs

30 minutes. Your host asks a set of questions agreed in advance: how Hannah built teams that trusted each other, the mistakes she made, and what she would tell a new manager today. The second half belongs to the audience.

What we tailor

We prepare the questions with your host on a short call, so the conversation fits your theme and the evening. Hannah can also join the dinner before or after.

Good to know

The fireside works best with a host who knows your audience: your CEO, an MC or a board member. Hannah sends a short list of suggested questions after the briefing call, and you can add your own. There are no slides, so the format also suits venues without a screen, from private dining rooms to a marquee.

Most hosts tell us it feels less like a talk and more like a good conversation that the whole room was invited to, which is exactly the point of the format.

The best questions always come from the back of the room.

Calm, warm and sharp. Exactly what a tired leadership team needed.
