Elizabeth F. Freedman

As the author of Work 101: Learning the Ropes of the Workplace without Hanging Yourself (Random House, 2007) and 2005 APCA finalist for College Speaker of the Year, Elizabeth Freedman’s keynote presentations and seminars combine substance with style that audiences rave about.

Throughout the year, Elizabeth delivers a wide range of career programs for companies and universities across the country, who write how Elizabeth “gets our blood flowing and makes us excited about our future,” while providing a “phenomenal program that delivers real value.”

Elizabeth is also an MBA graduate and former MBA Marketing lecturer with a business background who isn’t afraid to tell her own stories from the front line (ask her about the night she spit spaghetti on her boss’s tie) in order to make a point. Better yet, ask her about Made Redundant, the one-woman show she wrote and performed about her own work and career trials and tribulations. Audiences loved the humor and down-to-earth style of her story about how one MBA graduate went from being a technology hot shot to Jerry Springer junkie faster than you can say "bankrupt dot com." As one audience member wrote: “The show was simply fantastic…and you have a very powerful message in there with all that humor.”

Whether Elizabeth is delivering a keynote presentation at a conference, a seminar for a group of employees, or even a one-woman show, her passion for issues that impact professionals is clear. As a result, groups that work with Elizabeth walk away from her programs with practical ideas that really work, gaining a new set of tools for success and empowerment that truly makes a difference in their careers – and lives.
