As Seen In

Talk topics

Signature talks and workshops

Salary Negotiation That Holds

Ask for more without losing the offer. As heard on Financially Naked (The Financial Gym), episode 234.

Personal Branding Without the Noise

Stand out without performing. From the Brand New You session.

Workplace Equity & Career Readiness

Practical moves for employees and the orgs that want to keep them.

Leadership Development

Help rising managers lead with data and emotional intelligence.

Accidental Audacity

Confidence isn’t a trait you’re born with. It’s what’s left after you act before you feel ready. A talk for students and new grads on the small, uncomfortable moves that build the nerve to ask, apply, and speak up. New for the coming school year.

Promoted, Not Played

Walk into your performance review with confidence. Self assessment, clear communication, and relationship building, so your review reflects your real contributions. For professionals who get reviewed and the leaders who review them.

Stop Calling It an Achievement Gap When It Is an Opportunity Gap

Delivered for the Illinois Principals Association. A reframe for educators and leaders. The gap is not in the students, it is in access. What changes when you design for opportunity instead of explaining away outcomes.

Implicit Bias in Hiring

How bias slips into resumes, interviews, and decisions, and the concrete practices that keep it out. For hiring managers, recruiters, and any team that wants fairer and better hires.

How to Tell if a Company Truly Cares About Diversity

For candidates sizing up an employer, and for companies that want to attract a diverse pipeline. Hosting this workshop for free is one of the few risk free, legally sound ways to draw a more diverse pool. Book Paige to run it for your organization.

Paige is one of the most insightful, thoughtful, creative, and genuine human capital experts I have worked with in almost ten years. She has that rare mix of integrity, insight, subject matter expertise, executive experience, and a next level ability to connect and communicate. I have witnessed her impact on young talent and the glowing feedback she earns. I highly recommend Paige to individuals who need a career refresh and organizations that want to optimize culture, happiness, and productivity.
