Keynote Programs
1. Finding the Funny in Change
The lightning-fast pace of change is staggering to many leaders, organizations, and some members of your teams. Rapid, continuous change often results in fear, tension, and miscommunication. What are some practical tips that can help leaders in difficult times? Jan has spoken across the country on the use of humor in organizational leadership. Your attendees will learn how to diffuse tension instantly, initiate tough conversations, and facilitate communications through using humor. They’ll walk away laughing and learning about dealing with change in a unique way.
2. Bouncing Back: Handling Setbacks Like a Comedian
Get ready to face the inevitable blunders, mishaps, and mistakes that life throws your way, and come out on top! Let funny motivational speaker Jan McInnis show you the ropes with her hilarious humor and captivating tales from her early years in comedy. In her Bouncing Back keynote, Jan will share with you the secrets, tips, and tricks that comedians use to handle, recover, and avoid missteps in the future. You’ll be amazed by how quickly comedians can rebound from a mistake and turn it into a positive! With no “degree in comedy,” they learn their craft by trial and error! But that’s how they know how to keep moving forward and stay in the game. So get ready to learn from the best and laugh along the way!
This keynote includes stories from Jan’s second book titled: Convention Comedian: Stories and Wisdom from Two Decades of Chicken Dinners and Comedy Clubs.
3. Finding the Funny in Communications
In order to accomplish anything, you need to be heard and remembered! Humor works. Using humor in both your written and verbal business communications will keep your audience engaged, connect you with clients, employees and coworkers, “sell“ your organization, product, or service to others, and make your message memorable. This keynote combines Jan’s humor along with some easy-to-implement techniques that anyone can use to inject humor into their communications. Jan has written for everything from The Tonight Show monologues to radio, greeting cards, and CEOs – but this is not just about joke writing. She uses examples from your industry to demonstrate how to create and use humor that works. This is based on her book Finding the Funny FAST: How to Create Quick Humor to Connect with Clients, Coworkers & Crowds.
4. Cubicle Comedy
Clean and customized comedy that focuses on work, family, and day-to-day “stuff.” Jan was featured in The Wall Street Journal, The Huffington Post, and The Washington Post for her clean comedy.
