  • Lauren Ansley really knocked it out of the ballpark at our Charlotte Area SHRM meeting! Not knowing what to expect when placing a comedian in the middle of a group of HR professionals, I was thrilled at their reaction. Lots of laughter! The group was totally involved in the mini-breakout sessions and very active in sharing their thoughts about the topic of perseverance.

  • Lauren's infectious humor, profound insights, and inspiring presence made a lasting impression on me during her speech, 'The Funny Thing About Perseverance.'

    Her natural talent as a corporate entertainer was evident from the moment she began, effortlessly connecting with the audience on a personal level. Beyond the laughs, her message about navigating challenges with resilience struck a chord with everyone in attendance.

    Lauren's genuine warmth and remarkable skill set make her an invaluable asset to any event.

  • Come for the training, stay for the entertainment! Initially booked Lauren as part of a three-speaker line-up for a local SHRM Chapter half-day event. Later added virtual music bingo as a wrap-up social event. Lauren’s session and virtual music bingo with her and DJ Jeff were both big hits. You should definitely consider Lauren and her associates if you are looking for something fun and different to add to your next event.
