Shawna Schuh Profile
How does a person condense thousands of hours of learning, hundreds of books read, all of the classes taken, and personal observations made over a lifetime? Then, how is that information woven between the successes and failures of a business owner, the research of an author, and the experience of an instructor, and, finally organized into a readable format? You write a synopsis of course!
Syn-op-sis: a brief or condensed statement giving a general overview of some subject.
Shawna Schuh, CSP is an extraordinary storyteller, who works with corporations and associations to develop environments that help people bring their best selves to the work they do. She graduated from finishing school three times (ask her about that one some time) and taught finishing and fashion, as well as commercial work and interviewing skills, for over two decades. (She started out really young!) Shawna addresses communication and motivation, all forms of business and social etiquette, and leadership. Her presentations are humorous, overflowing with energy, and her audiences are left raving for more!
The Real Synopsis: Shawna Schuh is funny and she knows what she's talking about!
