I would love to speak at your next event.
Meeting Planners call me the Energizer Bunny (love that).
It’s a privilege to captivate, motivate, and challenge your audience with straight-talk strategies and sassy, Aussie high-energy—yep, all packaged in a tiny, stiletto-wearing package … well, sometimes I wear sneakers!
Why should I book Neen?

Attention Pays™ – Elevating Experiences to Accelerate Results
To get the results you want, you need to get the attention of your potential clients. Too often, we see attention as a transaction, or something to trade. The truth is, it’s much more complex than that. When it comes to building connections and long-term loyalty, attention is not a luxury, it’s a necessity
To really get the attention and buy-in of your team and clients, you need to appeal to them on three different levels: personal, professional, and global.
Neen James has designed a professional methodology to make it easier to leverage all three, helping individuals and organizations to be more deliberate about the choices they make and the actions they take.
The result? With the gift of your attention, you’ll see increased profitability, productivity, and accountability within your organization — you’ll develop luxurious, memorable experiences for your clients, gaining their loyalty and advocacy.
You’ll learn:
- Why we get attention wrong (and how to get it right)
- The three types of attention and how to master each
- Strategies to design your environment for elevated attention and focus
- How to show attention to every client so they understand everyone deserves to be treated with luxury
- A simple framework to elevate every sales conversation and articulate your value
Folding Time®
Do you wish you had more hours in the day to get it all done? Do you take work home or stay late at the office almost every day? Are you and your team stuck in too many meetings that seem to go on forever with no real result?
Answer yes to any of those? It’s time to learn how to “fold time!” This productivity keynote and support resource is a must for leaders and high-volume sales pros who are sometimes scrambling to manage their time, focus their attention, and motivate their teams to achieve at the highest level.
