Conferences are important opportunities to engage staff and clients in a new direction, launch new products and services and educate staff and clients.

Shirlaws offers its clients a range of services to support their conferences including:

• Masters of Ceremony – our MCs are experienced at managing the energy, timing and mood of the conference over one or more days.  Our MCs are also highly skilled at listening for key messages and themes, and weaving these back into the program to support the learning and achievements of your objectives.
  
  The MC allows the conference hosts to focus on content delivery, listening to the feedback from attendees, and networking with participants.
• Keynote Speakers – we provide quality, experienced speakers to present keynote presentations or facilitate workshops.  The presentation topics available reflect our experience working with a range of businesses and industries, and are kept up to date with current thinking and trends.  Our speakers are all highly experienced business coaches who are able to adapt the material to suit the needs of the conference and audience.
• Conference Agenda Design – we can help you get crystal clear on the real purpose and objective of your conference and help your design the agenda to achieve this purpose.  The secret to a successful agenda is knowing what to leave out, designing the order of messages and speakers, and structuring the timing of sessions and energy breaks.
• Facilitation of Corporate Retreats, for smaller, internal conferences where your business would benefit from an objective management of the retreat process, which in turn allows the CEO and key executives to better focus on the meaningful discussion and decisions.
  
  The Conference Agenda Design service also solves the common problem of having too many different sub-agendas for the conference, which can detract from the achievement of the overall purpose.

Shirlaws has developed and refined its expertise in MC and Conference Agenda Design over the past decade. We design and manage our own National Conference each year - click here for details about how you can attend in 2010 - as well as internal coach conferences which are run three times each year, and general conference services for existing and new clients.
