Who is Lori Vann?

77% of the US population struggles with some level of anxiety regarding public speaking. In fact, it has been said to be a more common fear than the fear of dying.

If you are an event planner you need to have the assurance that the speaker that you bring to your attendees is not only confident and competent but is also memorable in all of the best ways. Many people will say that they are professional speakers but many are only professionals who speak.

Do you want to know how to spot the difference between someone who is a professional speaker with training and experience versus someone who happens to speak for an occasional paid event?

Lori Vann has been a professional speaker for over twenty years who has received training from multiple internationally known coaches, in addition to the lessons that she learned as a performer and a professor for two colleges. Having presented on national and international stages for a wide variety of audiences and event types, Lori is regarded as a speaker who provides value for the audience and organizers; this is one of the many reasons why she has been a repeat presenter for numerous organizations.

Many speakers can provide information, but few speakers are able to present the information in a way that is meaningful, memorable, and usable. Lori is able to connect with your audience by providing a tailored talk with examples that will resonate with your attendees in a down-to-earth, genuine manner. Whether she is the keynote speaker for a large conference or providing a workshop to a small group of individuals, she gives every talk her full attention to make sure that your goals for the event are met.
