EVENT SPEAKING
Whether its your annual sales conference or offsite micro-event, Maven knows your choice of speaker is one of the most important decisions you make.
Our speaking topics are based on neuropsychology of how the brain and behavior work in concert. We focus on various areas of the brain that influences decision-making, communication, personality differences, bias and problem-solving embedded within common business disciplines such as; sales, marketing and customer support.
The application of neuropsychological principles in business can enhance decision-making, improve organizational culture, and promote better leadership and employee well-being.
Our goal when we speak at an event is to uplift audiences by integrating neuropsychological insights into business strategies that can help optimize human potential, improve efficiency, and promote a healthier, more innovative organizational culture.

Building Trust With Customer Service
Our Advanced Customer Service topic is intended for those already working in customer service and want to enhance their abilities. When organizations are looking at customer service, we found that most teams want to give their customers (or the general public), a richer and more personalized experience. An experience that provides a lasting positive effect and helps people feel heard and valued. Our keynote address looks at the neuropsychology of customer service. The content goes beyond simple customer service pleasantries, but rather delves into the "in the moment" scenarios and how to better communicate with customers, understanding their bias, personalities types, verbal and non-verbal communication, and how to engage certain neurotransmitters to create positive emotional moments.
Master Your Negotiation Skills
The Negotiation keynote helps develop a framework for analyzing and building a negotiating platform. This framework is designed to build the principled arguments that influence and persuade others. The content identifies areas like conflict, predictive arguments and handling tough situations. In addition, the topics tackles more advanced negotiation strategies and tactics, using a neuropsychology approach to better understand the negotiating partner’s behaviors including, neuro-decision making, bias, and personality types. We also identify language concepts to recognize verbal, para-verbal areas in negotiation along with non-verbal communication to help understand more physical emotional tones.
