My Bio:

Christine the Communication Queen
Speaker and author Christine Zust, M.A. helps people get to the joy of communication through connection. She will quickly help you to determine your "Communication Quotient" (CQ) through informative, engaging keynote speeches, training workshops and seminars and facilitated sessions. Christine shares her personal experiences and viewpoints through exercises and storytelling, which provide practical tips, laughter, and perhaps a few misty eyes along the way.

Christine reminds us that anyone can communicate with another person if it comes from the heart. She shows you how to cut through the small talk and get right to the big talk, a much more interesting and rewarding way to share life's experiences.

In her work at home and travels abroad, Christine has connected with hundreds of memorable "characters" and she brings those stories to life for her audiences. You'll meet characters like Miss Lula, the gentle restroom attendant in Florida who shares her wisdom from the Bible. Get to know German "Silver Hans" who spins tales of his World War II exploits. Learn the wisdom of Kake, the Balinese grandfather clad only in a loincloth, while speaking no English, could communicate powerfully through his bright eyes and expressive hands.

Christine is a member of the National Speakers Association and past president of its Ohio chapter, NSA Ohio. She has held leadership positions with the American Society for Training and Development, Cleveland chapter, and the Cleveland Coach Federation, and is an active member of the International Association of Facilitators and National Association of Women Business Owners. Her articles on leadership are regularly featured online at www.emergingleader.com, where she is a contributing editor.

Christine received The Appreciative Inquiry Certificate in Positive Business and Social Change from Case Western Reserve University' Weatherhead School of Management, an M.A. in Interpersonal Communication from Bowling Green State University (Ohio) and a B.A. in Public Relations from Kent State University.
