An interactive experiential program

PokerDivas offers:

  • An interactive keynote by Ellen Leikind on such topics as: playing to win as opposed to avoid losing; using the four poker personality types to devise a winning business strategy; and how to be bold, take action, and get what you deserve.
  • A hands-on workshop (including keynote) that allows guests to participate in the game while they learn new business skills and strategies.

We can create a custom event that fits the needs of your conference, workshop, or association meeting. PokerDivas offers a unique program that will attract sponsors or can be used as a popular value-added upsell, as we did for the Women Leaders in Life Sciences Law conference.

Conference attendees and association members are looking for new, creative solutions to their business challenges that they haven’t found inside the office. They also want to network with new people and gain different perspectives. A PokerDivas program gives guests a fun way to get the most out of their conference networking, and offers takeaways they can use when they return to the office.

Keynote topics include:

  • Playing to win as opposed to avoid losing: learning to be a bolder leader
  • Taking control of how you’re perceived at the conference table: creating the table image you desire
  • Learning the four poker personality types and how to use them to devise a winning strategy at work and in life
  • The gender dynamic: how women and men play differently at the poker table and at the conference table
  • How to be bold, take action, and get what you deserve
  • Beyond diversity: bringing the inclusivity of the poker table into corporate culture
  • Handling a bully in the boardroom

Become bold and decisive

Created by keynote speaker Ellen Leikind, PokerDivas is dedicated to helping professionals become bold and decisive at the conference table through skills they acquire at the poker table. We can provide an interactive, engaging workshop that shows people how to:

  • Build relationships and have a great time!
  • Be better leaders & build stronger teams
  • Learn to read and navigate different personalities
  • Become better negotiators

A comment on our conferences and workshops:

I had a chance to see Ellen give a keynote speech. Of all the conference presentations I’ve ever attended this was by far the most unique. I learned so many valuable lessons in negotiating and business strategy and had a blast!
