An Amherstburg resident is part of a professional speaker series later this month.


Kelly Meloche will be part of the Meta Speaker Series May 27 at Mackenzie Hall in Windsor. She joins Scott Valentine, Sharisse Guyton, Gail Robertson and Chris McAuley as speakers that evening at the “Maximizing Your Business Relationships” event.


“The Meta Speaker Series is a community event created by Meta Excellence. Meta Excellence is located in Windsor and their mission is to support personal and professional development in individuals and teams,” Meloche explained. “This series focuses on empowering business leaders, enriching teams and elevating  performance.”


Meloche said audiences are geared towards  C-suite executives, HR leaders, entrepreneurs and like-minded individuals committed to creating resilient and high performing local businesses.


“Meta Excellence was introduced to me through a mutual acquaintance that felt I had something beneficial to share with them based on my business acumen and my reputation for authentic connections,” she said.


The topic of Meloche’s presentation will be “Embracing Curious Conversations: Discovering What Matters.” 


“I will be walking the listeners through my professional lifetime story about discovering what matters - and how I had to unlearn certainty to find it,” said Meloche. “I will weave this presentation around the needs that we are all wired with. My goal is to open their perceptions to discovering their own needs by asking questions designed for deep introspection and to remind them that we don’t fulfill our needs with more noise. We meet them through meaningful conversations - ones brave enough to reach beneath the surface.  I will also tie this into current work environments, giving examples of how sales and performance are suffering and how, not easy, but necessary it is to truly connect for the greater good of all.”


Meloche said she is a regular speaker in a variety of forums but it is my first time speaking at a Meta Speakers event. She will be returning for their Fall Meta Speaker Series Nov. 23 at Willistead Manor called “Unlocking Greatness Through Leadership.


People can register for the May 27 event at www.meta-excellence.com/SpeakerSeries or they can attend online by registering at begin@meta-excellence.com


“I am excited to build onto what I create with the audience May 27 and expand the experience Nov. 23,” she said. “While there is no age restriction, I feel it is a dynamite experience for companies who want to shake off the dust and rejuvenate their practices, for entrepreneurs who just feel like they are spinning and intimidated by our fast moving world,  and for people in general who are feeling isolated in their ability to connect on meaningful levels and are thirsty to get a better understanding of how they see the world.”


Meloche is the author of “Leaving Your Light On - Inspirational Stories of Unforgettable Lives” and she said she spends many of her days “leaning into the remarkable stories of every walk of life and with great privilege tell those stories in the authenticity and respectful exuberance that every life should be celebrated in.”  


Meloche is also an officiant and she said this has led to “my world class virtual coaching program teaching others to do the same.  I am a keynote speaker in the worlds of motivation - rethinking the approach to funerals and bringing grassroots sensibility back into businesses.”
