Let’s Make This Easy
Francesca’s entire message is about building leaders who don’t buckle under pressure. She brings that same energy to the planning process. Everything you need is right here — no chasing, no back-and-forth.
A Speaker Who Understands What’s at Stake
When Francesca took the stage for a packed keynote while her partner was across the country in the hospital, she didn’t cancel. She delivered one of the best presentations of her career — because she lives by what she teaches as a thought leader and an expert in executive presence and image strategy: the fortitude to show up fully, even when everything is hard.
That’s the experience Francesca brings to your event. Not polished platitudes, but real, tested frameworks for building executive presence skills from the inside out. Her experience as a former Deloitte CPA executive means she communicates in terms that resonate with analytical, results-driven executive audiences. Her coaching certifications mean she provides executive presence training in person that helps people think differently and change their behavior.
The bottom line for meeting professionals: Francesca delivers what she promises, respects your timeline, and leaves your audience with something they’ll actually use. So hire a keynote speaker who makes your life easy… and makes you look great!
Francesca’s Keynote
Francesca commands the room from the opening minute, using her ACT Method™ to keep audiences engaged and leaving them with a clear framework they can act on the moment the talk ends — not just inspiration, a result you can point to.
The Complete Leadership Equation
Executive Presence from the Inside Out
Perfect as a leadership speaker for retreats, executive summits, conferences, and professional development programs.
The average executive presence coach addresses only half the equation — either how you manage stress, or how you show up in a room. This keynote solves for both. Using her proprietary Complete Leadership Equation framework, Francesca shows high-performing leaders how creating executive presence is both an inside and outside job— two sides of the same equation, and you can't shortcut either.
Leaders leave with a practical, immediately applicable framework for building composure, credibility, and command—without the fluff.
The Stress Shield
Build the Mental Foundation High Performance Demands
Perfect as a keynote speaker for women's leadership conferences, diversity & inclusion events, and professional development programs.
Your leaders have done the work. They’ve earned their titles. But if their professional image doesn’t reflect their expertise, they’re leaving influence—and opportunity—on the table.
This keynote by one of the country’s best executive presence coaching experts reveals why how you show up matters as much as what you know, and gives audiences the practical leadership presence training to command respect and authority with intention. Because the best leaders don’t hope people recognize their value. They make it undeniable.
Power Presence
Command the Room With Visual Authority
Perfect as a keynote speaker for leadership teams, including for summits, executive retreats, and conferences focused on performance and wellbeing.
Stress isn’t the enemy of high performance — unpreparedness is. In this keynote, Francesca introduces the FIT Framework (Focus, Intention, Thrive) and the 1% Solution, giving leaders the science-backed tools to get ahead of stress rather than react to it. The result: a mind that doesn't break under pressure — it performs because of it.
Built for audiences who want practical tools over wellness theory, this session delivers immediately actionable strategies leaders can implement without overhauling their routines.
Keep the Momentum Going!
Booking Francesca doesn't end with the keynote. The ACT Method™ extends into customized workshops and coaching, giving your audience a way to keep building executive presence long after the room empties — and giving you a resource you can bring back for future events.
