Presenter: Lisa Ryan, Chief Appreciation Strategist at Grategy

Before speaking on stages across the nation, Lisa spent 13 years in industrial sales — including 7 years in the welding industry. In fact, she’s about as good with a welding torch in her hand as she is with a mic. Lisa learned a thing or two about employee appreciation and retention during those years. She left a highly successful career after realizing her boss just didn’t value her contribution as much as other companies would. Years later, she was laid off (along with dozens of coworkers) during a conference call. She has been the top talent that walked away and the under-valued employee that was unceremoniously cut loose. These experiences formed the foundation of the inspirational keynotes she has presented since 1997. She is a Certified Speaking Professional™ with the National Speakers Association. As a CSP®,  she is among in the top tier of professional speakers — with only 17% of NSA members worldwide earning this designation.
