Keynotes
Give your audience a vision — and the voice to carry it forward.
Our founder, Brigette Polmar, takes the stage for industry conferences, sales kickoffs, leadership summits, and awards shows. Every talk is built from the same craft we bring to our training work — grounded in two decades of broadcast and executive communications experience.
The firm sends Brigette
A broadcast journalist, an executive producer, and the founder of Brand Spoken.
Brigette spent her early career as an on-air journalist, then built two decades of experience producing executive communications work for leaders and organizations. She founded Brand Spoken to bring that same discipline — a broadcast-quality approach, a journalist’s ear for what audiences actually hear — to the leaders she trains. On stage, she brings the same thing to a room.
Signature talks
Five talks, built from the same craft we bring to the training room.
Each talk can be delivered as a 45–60 minute keynote, a half-day workshop, or a shorter fireside format. Mix and match. Custom-build to the event.
Keynote 01
Becoming Brand Spoken
Why being well-spoken isn’t enough anymore — and what it takes to be the kind of leader whose words carry out of the room.
Keynote 02
The Audience Is Your Distribution
If the audience can’t carry the message, the message doesn’t leave the room. A reframe of what every executive communication is actually trying to do.
Keynote 03
Panels Wreck More Reputations Than Keynotes
The format almost nobody prepares for, from someone who’s prepped hundreds of panelists. Meta-relevant for any conference audience.
Keynote 04
The Executive on Camera
What a journalist watches for that a presentation coach misses. For leaders whose next audience is on a screen, not in the room.
Keynote 05
Giving Your Vision a Voice
A working session on how to find and land the one line your audience will carry into their next conversation. Named after the firm’s core promise, built around the method.

Start the conversation
Becoming Brand Spoken starts with a conversation.
If a keynote isn’t quite the shape you’re looking for — a workshop, a training intensive, a multi-day engagement — let’s talk about that too.
