Booking a leadership keynote speaker: common questions
What does Erin speak about?
Firm growth and capacity, succession planning, leadership development, independence, and preparing accounting teams for AI. Every session is built specifically for accounting audiences rather than adapted from a general business talk.
Is Erin available for virtual keynotes and webinars?
Yes. Virtual keynotes and webinar series are a regular format, and they work particularly well for associations and multi-office firms that want to reach everyone without travel costs.
What audiences are these sessions built for?
Managing partners, partner groups, firm owners, and senior leadership teams — plus association and conference audiences made up of the same. Sessions can also be pitched to managers and emerging leaders when that’s the group in the room.
Can a session be customized for our firm or conference?
Yes, and it usually is. Erin will ask about your audience, your theme, and what you want people to do differently afterward, then tailor the framework and examples accordingly.
Does Erin speak at accounting conferences and association events?
Yes. Erin has been a featured speaker for organizations including Wolters Kluwer, the AICPA, and Accounting Today, and speaks at regional and national accounting events throughout the year.
