Follow-Up Group Coaching
Group coaching helps messages from the keynotes and master classes “stick” in a lasting and meaningful way. Via Zoom, Jennifer provides a 1-hour coaching session to groups of 6–8 participants 4–6 weeks after the live or virtual presentations. This gives participants an opportunity to engage in focused conversations and problem solving around actions they committed to take in the master classes and keynotes. They share successes, present challenges, and receive peer feedback in a safe, trusted environment.
Debrief Session With Planning Team
Jennifer will have a debrief call to assess what was effective about her presentations, and she will make follow-up culture recommendations.

Her session was called “the best training session we have ever had” and she was described as a “fantastic speaker!!”

Convening Conversations
Facilitated Discussions on Introverted Topics
Jennifer collaborates with leadership in the organization to facilitate an open dialogue and discussion session. Held over a small lunch or in a large town hall meeting, these discussions are a way to create awareness, share practical tools, and build connections within teams.
Meet the Author — Fireside Chat
A leader and introvert advocate from your organization interviews Jennifer about one or more of her books. We will encourage transparency and explore topics relevant to your organization. You can host a follow-up book signing. Attendees gain from the rich conversations and deeper dialogue with the author and enjoy receiving a signed copy of the book. This “fireside chat” is a great kick-off to a book club using one of Jennifer’s books.
Panel Discussions With Leaders
Jennifer will present a 10-to-15-minute TED Style talk on the latest trends in introvert research, explode some myths, and explore some provocative ideas. She then will moderate a panel of 2–3 introverted leaders from your organization, who will respond to questions about their journeys as introverted leaders. The panel is a strong statement to your organization that introversion is an important diversity, inclusion, and equity topic to address.
Consultation Sessions With Leaders
Jennifer facilitates an open dialogue and discussion session with managers. This can take place during lunch. Managers can bring their challenges in leading introverts to a roundtable discussion. Past topics have included talent management practices, hiring, meetings, workspace design, and remote work options for introverts.

Jennifer was the keynote speaker for one of the corporate lunch and learns at our company. In addition to the live audience, the event was live-streamed to our remote locations. Jennifer did an amazing job engaging the people in the room and recognizing the remote participants. Her talk was engaging, generating lots of audience participation during the event and lots of conversation on the topic of Introverted Leadership after the event. Jennifer also provided follow up materials to share with our employees to keep the conversation going. She was funny, provided interesting facts and appealed to both the introverts and the extroverts.

Audio Books
I had the pleasure of working with Jennifer Kahnweiler at a PMI Atlanta event where she was the keynote speaker. She was on point from the time of booking to the end of the event. It was obvious that Jennifer cares about her audience as she took great care to understand them and relate to them. That she is an accomplished author on the topic of understanding introvert and extrovert personality traits, reconfirms her commitment and passion. Her recommendations for project managers were well received by our PMI group. I am honored to recommend Ms. Kahnweiler as a leader, motivator and speaker.
