About Lauren Ansley
Better connection makes meetings better.
I’m Lauren Ansley, and I believe that when people feel connected to the message and to each other, meetings work better.
I partner with organizations to bring intentional interaction and positive energy into their meetings and conferences so people feel engaged, included, and fully present. My role isn’t to overhaul agendas or compete with the content. It’s to support the work that matters by creating moments of connection that help people stay attentive, involved, and aligned.
Why I do this work…
Most meetings are packed with important updates, strategy, and big ideas. But even the strongest content can miss its mark when people feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or hesitant to participate.
Before focusing on conferences and meetings, I spend years in live performance and facilitation settings where audience attention is immediate and honest. Theres’s no pause button and no second chance to regain attention. I’ve seen how quickly energy drops when connection is missing, and how intentional interaction can bring a group back together.
That experience shapes how I approach meetings and conferences today.
How I Work…
My approach is facilitation-forward and grounded in awareness.
I pay close attention to the room, reading energy, adjusting in real time, and creating space for participation that feels natural and comfortable.
As someone who is naturally introverted with extroverted tendencies, I’m especially attuned to how different personalities experience meetings and group settings.
Connection doesn’t have to be loud or performative to be effective.
I design experiences that invite participation without pressure and make space for a wide range of communication styles.
Everything I do is purposeful and aligned with your goals, whether I’m supporting an all-hands meeting, a leadership offsite, or a multi-day conference.
What this looks like in practice…
I’ve supported internal teams, international groups, and industry conferences where time together is limited, and the stakes are high.
In these settings, my focus is on creating thoughtful, low-pressure moments of connection that support trust, participation, and momentum without distracting from the agenda.
Rather than bringing a one-size-fits-all solution, I tailor engagement to what each meeting or conference needs most, whether that’s connection, energy, participation, or flow.
Who I work With…
I work best with organizations and leaders who:
Have meaningful, sometimes content-heavy agendas
Value connection, inclusion, and positive energy
Want engagement without forcing participation
Care about the experience of the people in the room
My clients often know what they want to communicate. They’re looking for support in making sure it lands in a way people can actually feel.
