Dia Bondi is a Leadership Communications Coach helping Founders and Leaders know their voice so they can lead with it and the author of Ask Like an Auctioneer: How To Ask For More and Get It. We loved sitting down with Dia to get her advice and tips around the formula for speaking powerfully, and how to achieve mastery before you step on a stage.
We started cred with a mission of building thought leaders through events. To date, we have confirmed more than 4,500+ speaking opportunities and helped host more than 150 events for clients all over the world. It’s amazing to see how far we’ve come—as a team under 30—to achieving that mission, and so much more.
Like every business, we’ve had our ups and downs. Looking back at the past 7 years, a few things I’ve learned along the way:
To start things off, we'd like to say thank you to those of you who made 2021 everything it was. Our team believes in one another and the impact of thought leadership through speaking and events, but it’s an even more incredible feeling knowing our clients also value the work we do and believe in us too. 2021 was full of many wins, fighting hardships, and more emerging trends for the event industry. Here’s some of our top highlights.
This past year has been anything but easy—Year 5 to 6 was the hardest one yet, (and felt more like a decade!). This time last year there was a lot of chaos, despair, and uncertainty, especially for our industry. Fortunately, we’re in a much more positive, hopeful position with live events returning and the continued creativity and expansion our industry is currently experiencing; an exciting time.
Over the past several months, cred has had the opportunity and pleasure to work with Datavant to launch their webinar program. Through their webinar series, Datavant has been able to build client and partner relationships and zero in on 1:1 conversations to spotlight how they partner with each, and showcase how they operate across different industries and areas of focus.
