Feedback & Results from Jenny's Keynotes

Association of Independent Information Professionals

“Jenny Blake was GREAT! Her session justified my attending the conference this year.”

Excellent choice for keynote and fit perfectly with the theme. She knew her audience well, which was great. Jenny Blake was a fabulous keynote speaker.

”Based on where I am currently at with my business, this presentation was right on target for me. I read the book and plan to use the process. I thought that Jenny was a very engaging speaker and she made her book come alive and hearing the process out loud. I really enjoyed hearing her speak about her own pivots and the highs and lows of how she navigated each of them.”

”The keynote was so spot on with the theme of the conference and Jenny is a real pro - added a definite forward looking business approach to career and business planning.”

”Perfect for the topic and our group. Very pertinent. Great speaker. Someone who speaks both motivationally and practically!”

Massachusetts Conference for Women

Jenny Blake was absolutely fantastic. She was the most influential to me yesterday. As someone who has felt “stuck” she has changed my perspective on how I should view my future. I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to sit in on her session and discuss my situation with her.”

Not only is she a great speaker but she is humble and exceedingly nice based on my interactions during the book signing.

Google Career Development Workshop 

“I loved learning about my core strengths & values and how to align them to what I want to do. Also, I really enjoyed the ‘pivot’ framework, which allowed me to look to my career as a series of steps rather than trying to jump from A to B instantaneously.”

Memorial Herman Women Leaders

Jenny’s workshop was so well-received, and participants truly appreciated the message she shared with them. Right after the event one of my managers reached out to me to set up time so we can speak about her possible next pivot!”

Texas Conference for Women

“AMAZING. Both watching her as a presenter and the content. A+!”

”This was my favorite session. It provided not only an interesting personal story and good information, but practical tips and exercises on how to put the information to use.”

”Great information, well laid out slides and presentation. She was a great speaker with good real-life, relatable examples and experiences. I took the most notes during this session, her interactive portions where she asked questions and you wrote answers was very good food for thought. I didn’t get to answer most of the questions in room but they have stayed with me ever since. The questions have made me start to SEEK a pivot point, whereas I’ve waited for the pivot to appear in the past.”

”I found Pivot to be very helpful at a time where I’m not sure what the next step is. Jenny made her session personal with anecdotes about her own experience and made it useful by doing some personal hands-on Pivot work right there in the workshop. She kept my attention the entire time.”

”I really went into this class thinking it would be some mediocre repeat of a lot of self help books; but it was probably the session that I took the most from. It was a something I needed for the time I’m at in my life. The speaker was charismatic, likable, smart, inspiring, and relatable.”

”Jenny was phenomenal and shared great ideas. Positive, ‘motivating and what a smart woman!!”

Boston Conference for Women

“To say that I was impressed by Jenny Blake is an understatement. She was able to articulate and impart so many pearls of wisdom that I am glad I had a notebook. In fact, others in the room had the same reaction. The hour flew by so quickly!”

”Jenny Blake was lovely and insightful. Definitely walked away with great tactics for thinking about my career.”

”She was very interactive—another great presentation by Jenny Blake that built upon her earlier presentation that day. I took lots of notes and plan to read her book for additional insight on the subject. I loved that she shared some of the coaching questions she’s asked of herself and her clients to guide them through the process of discovery to a defined action plan. Excellent insights, Jenny! Thank you!”

”Loved Jenny’s style - relaxed, confident, friendly, open. Great content with actionable steps.”

”Liked the “workshop” nature of it. Made it very engaging and helpful for action.”

”The thought that the only thing that matters is the next step is a powerful statement. Very interesting ideas.”

”This was an outstanding session with practical tools to help work through transitions. I found it very helpful!”

”Jenny was a great presenter, charismatic, and very real, so someone with whom it was easy to relate. Definitely someone I would love to listen to more. She provided useful advice on a subject that can be intimidating. I wish I had gone to the Career Transitions session to see more of this topic.”

”Great speaker! She was excellent, warm, shared personal experiences that gave context and reference to her tools and topics. She could improve by using a few more specific examples of how to implement the Pivot techniques and approach. Sometimes it felt like more of a buzzword than a concept or technique to work on and use. Could’ve used more substance and examples in that case. But overall, her slides, descriptions and explanation was great. And so was she! Bring her back!”

”Jenny Blake is a gifted speaker and provided us with invaluable insights. This was in my top three favorite presentations and that is saying something because they were all outstanding! Not only is she a great speaker but she is humble and exceedingly nice based on my interactions during the book signing.
