High-Performance in Business: From Knowledge to Execution
Success in business isn’t about knowing more—it’s about applying what you know at the highest level. The best performers don’t just accumulate knowledge; they develop systems for execution, decision-making, and growth.
With a background as an internationally awarded concert pianist and a learning design strategist, I help leaders and teams close the gap between potential and performance.

Engage Your Audience with a High-Performance Keynote
Elevating performance isn’t just about working harder—it’s about working smarter, executing better, and driving real results.
I deliver keynotes and workshops that help business leaders, teams, and entrepreneurs apply high-performance principles to business growth, learning, and leadership. Whether in person or virtually, my sessions are designed to be practical, engaging, and transformative.
Choose the Format That Works Best for You:
In-Person at Your Event
I travel to your location to deliver an engaging, high-impact session tailored to your audience.
Virtual Speaking Engagement
A live, interactive experience designed for remote teams and conferences.
Interactive Workshop
A hands-on session where your team engages, experiments, and applies strategies that drive real-world results.
Testimonial
"Carmen helped me enormously launching the Speak Like a CEO Academy, my first scalable, digital offer. She transformed my understanding of how to design and market our offer in just a few sessions. Without our sessions, I would have missed a lot of opportunities during the launch and would have sold fewer tickets as a result. "
