COREAN’S TEDx TALK | TEDxMSU
Who are you without your stories? (And why they’re slipping away)
Transform how your leaders SHOW UP and how your organization moves forward.
Leadership that lasts isn't built on scripts. It's built on presence, clarity, and the courage to communicate what really matters.
Performative leadership is out.
Present leadership is in.
In a world of constant change, people need more than direction. They need leaders who can connect, inspire, and influence what's next.
Corean helps leaders communicate with clarity, lead with purpose, and create real impact in every room they enter.

"I've had the pleasure of working with Corean on several Chief events, and each experience has been nothing short of transformative.
Corean consistently brings incredible energy and profound knowledge, offering invaluable advice on finding your voice, thought leadership, and leading and living well.

Chauncey Walker M.Ed,
Community Engagement Manager
Corean is a talented and thoughtful organizational culture expert who made everyone feel comfortable enough to leave their “work personas” at the door, let their guards down, be open-minded, and be present in the moment.
She touched on themes like effective communication (virtual and in-person), learning to listen to respond inclusively versus react defensively, mutual understanding, and mindfulness techniques to be more present at work.

PLAY: The Secret Sauce to Better Work and a Happier Life
COREAN’S DISRUPTHR TALK
Play is Not the Perk, it's the Path
Guiding Principles
BEing
I stay present. Fully here, fully engaged with my work, my people, and my life.
Curiosity
I ask questions that open things up. I like stretching what feels possible.
Freedom
I show up fully. I own who I am and define success on my own terms.
Fun
I take the work seriously, but not myself. Laughter is part of the process.
Connection
I build trust by being real. I care about creating spaces where people feel seen and safe to show up too.
Yes, And
I meet people where they are. I listen, build, and stay open to what's next.
Accountability
I own my impact. My words, my choices, and how I move through the world.
Gratitude
I notice the good. I say thank you often and mean it.
Corean’s Leadership workshop was a highlight of our event.Having seen her speak at a TedX event on "The Secret Sauce to Better Work and a Happier Life," I knew she would deliver exceptional value.
Her final session activity was particularly memorable. It got everyone up and out of their seats, energized, and engaged. Corean’s ability to create an environment where work and fun coexist seamlessly makes her workshops invaluable. She inspires leaders to not only be effective in their roles but also to find joy and fulfillment in their work.
Craig Mcara, Investment Advisor
Corean's team-building event was a game-changer for us.
Her engaging activities not only fostered immediate collaboration among team members who rarely work together but also left us with lasting strategies for improving teamwork through play. I'm deeply appreciative of the fun and unity Corean brought to our team.
