Reviews of Our Speakers
“Carey Lohrenz is that rare speaker that at the same time is incredibly sharp and able to convey her notable business acumen while telling great stories and inspiring audiences of all types. She peppers her talks with wit, humor and insightful wisdom. I recommend Carey without reservation.” Kris Thomas, PhD Talent Enablement, LiveRamp
“A Remarkable Experience at the Virtual Event with Carey Lohrenz
Carey’s insights and perspectives were truly enlightening. Her distinguished career in the US Navy brought a unique and invaluable perspective to the discussion. I was captivated by her ability to draw parallels between her experiences in the Navy and the challenges we face in our daily lives. Her stories were not only inspiring but also provided valuable lessons applicable to both personal and professional growth.” — People Driven Technology
“Carey was the perfect speaker to close out our event! Our attendees were engaged and energized by her passion and ability to transfer her past experiences to any setting, be it professional or personal. She was able to perfectly intertwine the message of her session, ‘Remaining Relevant,’ with our organization’s competency framework, which is at the core of our work with healthcare quality and patient safety professionals. While her session was playing, the live chat was very, very active and attendees were already saying how excited they were to share her insights with their staff/teams. We knew we were going to get a great session from Carey, but it definitely exceeded our expectations!”— National Association for Healthcare Quality
“Carey was a huge hit at our conference of nearly 3,000 bank and credit union attendees. Her message around strategic partnership and delivery was well received by all. We had numerous comments after her keynote expressing how great she was and that it was nice seeing strong female representation at the conference. Carey does a phenomenal job of bringing the audience into her world – then showing how it can easily relate to them and their business. We had a lot of in-person feedback and via social media … one of which was a female client that mentioned her keynote being excellent and related to being a Navy brat herself – Carey actually responded to her social post and kept the conversation going and I think that meant a lot to the person. It’s so apparent Carey loves what she does and was ready to engage with the attendees even after the event. She is a rock star and would be a great addition to any event you may consider having!”
–Justin Ross, Senior Corporate Project Manager, Jack Henry

“We thoroughly enjoyed the time with Carey. The topics were spot on – reminding us to focus on items within our span of control, limit them to 3 things, and she re-energized us to align as One Team. It was so great to have her and very timely – the perfect way to kick off our time together! Carey is a fearless leader who can help your team become more aligned and laser-focused on key priorities.” — CHRO, Tri Pointe Homes
“Working with Carey and the SpeakersOffice team was a dream! This was our first all company event virtually and we were nervous on how it would go. Carey was ready to go, had a beautiful set, great camera, no wifi issues AND uses great software to show her slides on her video screen while presenting. She is the full package! Our employees loved hearing about her experiences as a fighter pilot and could have asked her questions for hours! We can’t thank Carey enough for bringing inspiration to our company after a crazy, unpredictable year!”– Erika Pare, Supervisor-Marketing & Communications, InTouch Group
“Carey exceeded the expectations of the general session planning committee. The humor and the storytelling of her experience was exceptional. I believe our attendees, majority who are women, will walk away being fearless. Having the confidence to step out and do what may seem the unthinkable and the unimaginable and make things happen. It was a great experience and the attendees raved about her continuously. She lit a fire and inspired the attendees to go out and get all that they could get from Conference and in their personal and professional lives.” —Yolanda Simmons Battle, CMP, Senior Meeting Planner, American Health Information Management Association

“Carey was the absolute highlight of both conferences I attended. Her passion and energy, along with her story telling, captivated the audience. Her advice on leadership and teamwork, especially given her experiences, were authentic and impressive. I would highly recommend Carey for any conference and plan to invite her again for a different audience in the future. She was outstanding!” –Raytheon
“Having read her book and knowing her story of courage and tenacity, I had a profound respect for Carey as a woman and a leader before she ever took the stage. The theme for Q2 Connect client conference was ‘Delivering Today, Shaping Tomorrow’ and Carey’s keynote did an amazing job of bringing that into focus for Q2 and our clients. Her story is nothing short of uplifting and inspirational and her focus and teachings gave everyone some great lessons in leadership they can easily apply in their lives every day like: ‘Great teams always embody two qualities: belief and trust’ and ‘Banish your limiting beliefs. Make the decision to act in spite of being afraid’ that could be heard from clients throughout the conference and echoed across social media.”
“Carey gave us great food for thought, made us laugh a little and gave us an opportunity to pause and reflect as we endeavor every day at Mach speed with our clients in a partnership to strengthen communities by strengthening their financial institutions.” –Q2ebanking
“Carey was absolutely wonderful! She signed all 200 books that we purchased in the green room before her talk. It was seriously impressive. Her presentation got rave reviews – it was the highest rated session of our entire leadership conference. The beginning of her presentation starts with a video, and the lights in the room went totally dark. I got goosebumps!
Many people mentioned Carey as the highlight of the day in their anecdotal feedback. She was awesome. I really appreciate all of the work that you did to help us get the books on time. Every participant went home with a signed copy, and it really made for a special giveaway.” –Intel

“Vixen rocked! I just wanted to thank you for all you did to make our meeting inspiring and fantastic. I personally thought you did a great job connecting with everyone, and your story is inspiring, and your lessons very appropriate for all we are going through. Yesterday one of my VP’s was giving a presentation, and the title of it was ‘Lose sight, and you lose the fight’ And he gave you full credit for the quote!” —Dan Schulman, CEO PayPal

She has the seamless ability to connect her military experience with leadership in the business world. As I’ve returned to the workplace more than one person has quoted her in various settings; from “80%” to ‘If you lose sight, you lose the fight’ and many others. I highly recommend her as a speaker and feel privileged to have met her! She Rocks – Go Fearless Leadership!” —Bethpage Federal Credit Union

You seem to make all things possible and are really making a difference in the lives of all you touch. You open their eyes to hope and a future they might never have explored. I don’t think anything can equal that feeling of promise and accomplishment.”—Association for Learning Environments
