Speaking
The talk that changes the room.
Maranda brings over twenty years of hard-won leadership experience to every stage, with a style that is candid, practical, and grounded in what actually works.
Why Maranda
Real stories. Hard-earned lessons. Practical leadership.
Maranda Dziekonski has keynoted conferences, spoke on webinars, and appeared on hundreds of podcasts — not because she has a polished script, but because she tells the truth. Her talks are direct, specific, and built from real experience leading customer success organizations through hypergrowth, crisis, and everything in between.
Audiences leave her sessions with more than inspiration. They leave with language for things they've been feeling for years — and a clear sense of what to do next.
Speaking topics
What Maranda talks about.
Drawing from her business memoir, Saying the Hard Parts Out Loud, Maranda explores the moments when honesty matters most, the conversations leaders are tempted to avoid, and what happens when people finally say what everyone else is thinking. She shares how candid leadership can build trust, surface problems earlier, strengthen decision-making, and create healthier teams without sacrificing empathy or accountability.
