with Deedre Daniel

Our guest this week on Six Degrees of Associations, Deedre Daniel, is so interesting that she founded a company called The Interesting Conversations Company. Suffice to say, she is intriguing, and so is this week’s conversation, which focuses on overcoming digital distractions and building connections. As discussed in today’s episode, Deedre left her secure corporate job to make life more interesting! Her company’s tagline says it all: “Simply put, we help make your life, business, and events more interesting than a cell phone!”

The Interesting Conversations Company delivers this engaging content through keynotes, networking events, and powerful personal and professional development programs, including The Very Interesting Game.

With every advancement in society comes an adjustment. Just as the advent of air conditioning led many to stay indoors and be less social, today it is cell phones that keep us glued to our devices and withdrawn. As Deedre outlines, history repeats itself, and now we need training on how to be more interesting and capture people’s attention. This is also the message behind Deedre’s talks, which she frequently presents to audiences in the association space, including the first-ever Association Chat bus trip, which we discuss in this podcast.
