Become the Voice in the Room

We are all living in an interesting time as it relates to work and business. We repeatedly hear that relationships are critical to advancement. In most organizations, many feel that they are seen only as a number and not as a contributing individual.

In “Become the Voice in the Room,” Annella Metoyer shares her fresh perspective on work, advancement, and leadership empowering YOU to become the voice in the room. She takes you along on a journey tapping into the experiences and life lessons that she learned on her way to becoming the City President for a large corporate bank in Houston, Texas.

To “Become the Voice in the Room,” it takes awareness to know and develop your core competencies, to demonstrate them in your actions, and to have the courage to share your strengths and passions with the influencers (your board of directors) in your organization. You will learn how to tap into your unique power source that is needed to be recognized and rewarded in your organization.

Feminine Fear

Is fear limiting your success? If you are not sure of your answer, you are not alone. FEAR is one of those words women try to avoid! Many women reject the possibility that FEAR plays a part in their career and success. Some prefer to blame their anxieties and depression on stress … not fear. You have to be brave to admit fear.

In her keynote presentation “Feminine Fear,” Annella Metoyer addresses that FEAR is real, and it is fear that keeps us from stepping out and taking risks. Fear limits each of us and sabotages our success. Annella openly shares her experiences and insights on her personal encounters with fear. She encourages women to take the risk and build on their own power source.

Dare to be the Change-"If you don't, who will?"

“If you don’t, who will?” These five simple words formed a strong foundation throughout Annella Metoyer’s life and are the cornerstone in all of her keynotes and presentations. As a woman and a person of color, Annella faced adversities in the workplace and beyond. Today, she shares her journey from her first job of stamping addresses on envelopes to becoming the City President for a large corporate bank. Throughout her presentation, you will be inspired and motivated to “open the door for others.” Annella brings her amazing stories of Leadership, Diversity, Change, and Triumph to the stage.
