Additional Keynote Presentation:
Taming Workplace Hecklers – Dealing with Difficult People
In showbiz, a heckler is a person in the audience who disrupts the show. In business, a heckler is the person who disrupts the flow. As a performer, Judy notes that there are (3) specific types of hecklers in an audience: bullies, snipers and buffoons. +
In her experience working with business clients, Judy notes there is distinct correlation with hecklers in the audience and hecklers in the workplace, including customers.
The strategies that Judy has developed as a performer in dealing with hecklers are extremely effective in a work environment. Not only do these strategies improve the culture in the office, improve productivity, efficiency and decrease bullying and absenteeism, but they’re also always good for a laugh or two. --

Judy, we are getting rave reviews from our agents and support staff that attended our kick off event this morning. As our keynote in the morning (lacking alcohol), this event either hits or misses. You hit it out of the park!! You were funny but also had a very clear message to deliver. Your topic ‘Relieving Stress with Humour’ was well received. It is very hard to keep over 300 people totally spell bound for an hour! But you did! Congratulations. You are an excellent speaker. Funny, captivating and smart!

You were absolutely fantastic last night. You had the whole audience in stitches. You don’t usually hear accountants laugh that much and also, a very good topic on why humor is so important to our mental and physical well being, you delivered the message superbly.
