I first saw Sharon speak at the Women for Business Conference, and was so inspired by her talk on “Executive Presence” that I knew we had to bring her powerful message to our Women's Innovation Network (WIN). Sharon is charismatic, engaging, and provided tangible suggestions and examples on how to increase Executive Presence in the workplace.

Sharon's presentation for the Ellevate Signature Luncheon was a breath of fresh air, and it was very timely that she shared her wisdom on “Becoming Wonder Woman in the Board Room,” amid International Women's Day. Sharon both inspired and empowered our community by sharing actionable insights such as the need for Executive Presence, the importance of becoming a life-long learner, and the inherent need to be bold - and move other women forward. Sharon is a testament to the meaning of true leadership. She is using her power for good by sharing the important lessons she's gleaned throughout her career - helping others to succeed in the workforce of tomorrow; a value that we also embody at Ellevate Triangle NC.

My annual conference caters to a very niche audience. I always speak to keynote candidates prior to selecting to gauge whether they will be a good fit for us. I usually know within 15 minutes, but with Sharon, I knew in less than five (maybe even two!) that she would be perfect for our group, and boy was I right! Sharon's presentation style is warm, engaging and genuine. She draws you in...and you're compelled by her message—which is tremendously motivating. Her journalism background is evident in her delivery. We just wrapped our 14th symposium with Sharon as our keynote. She absolutely ranks among the best we've had. Her message honestly has stuck with me, and that is telling of its power (I've heard a lot of these). If you're looking for a speaker who can connect with your group, inspire them and leave them thinking about the message they've heard—in a meaningful way—Sharon is the one for you.

I had the amazing experience of working with Sharon Delaney McCloud (she/her) CDE® as a keynote speaker for HerCsuite®. Sharon provided an incredible level of professionalism expertise as an engaging and very experienced speaker. She interacted in meaningful ways with the audience at our Women’s History Month event. Going above and beyond, Sharon created a video to invite attendees to our event. She then delivered a next level presentation that immersed the audience with a unique and memorable presentation. As an event producer, I appreciate Sharon’s ability to interact with attendees while presenting dynamic content, videos. Sharon uses the latest presentation technology, provides actionable handouts, and includes audience feedback that is measurable. I highly recommend Sharon for every type of event, in-person, hybrid and virtual.

Keynote by Sharon Delaney McCloud:
In today's professional world, your communication must rise above obstacles like the waning human attention span, distraction, bias, technology and other challenges.
In group settings, men are 75% more likely to speak up than women, under-represented minorities and introverts. And when a woman, minority or introvert does speak up, it's statistically probable that their male counterparts will either interrupt them or speak over them. What does this mean? If you're not ready to fight to be heard through ally-building strategies, your potential could be silenced.
In this engaging, actionable session, Sharon will share how to amplify your voice figuratively (and literally) and hone your message to make certain that your voice is heard - so that you truly have a voice, and not just a seat, at the table.
