She is a consultant in demand for keynotes and workshops on communications, career and workplace issues, and women’s empowerment. Her background is in political science and the arts.

Her three signature keynote speeches focus on women’s empowerment, unifying communication, and dismantling racism. They offer tools people can put to use immediately to change themselves, and the world. VanCort is also known for her workshops, including "Persuasive Communication and Public Speaking" and "Storytelling Leaders and Changemakers." Additionally, she offers a 7-week course titled "Claim Your Space," aimed at boosting the professional lives of women.

VanCort is the founder of The Actor's Workshop of Ithaca, a Cook House Fellow at Cornell University, an advisory board member of the Performing Arts for Social Change, and a member of Govern For America's League of Innovators. Her first book, "A Woman's Guide to Claiming Space: Stand Tall. Raise Your Voice. Be Heard.," became a #1 Bestseller soon after its publication in May 2021. The book includes a foreword by Alma Derricks, former CMO of Cirque De Soleil.

VanCort has appeared on "The Drew Barrymore Show" and delivered a virtual talk for Microsoft on Women Claiming Space.

Eliza VanCort Speaking Topics

  • There is a World White People Do Not See

    Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging

    This moving, funny and painfully human talk directly addresses Whiteness from my perspective as a White woman.

    Using my powerful personal story and extensive research, I share actionable tactics and strategies to inspire critical allyship, effectively interrupt racism and promote transformative institutional change.

    Topics: Whiteness, Rejecting Rightness, Barriers to Learning, Whites and “Woke”, The Metaphorical Porch, Performative v. Critical Allyship, Inclusion v. Belonging

  • Bow to No One

    Raise Your Voice. Be Heard. Listen Well.

    The story our physicality and voice tells can clearly project confidence and strength, or send counterproductive messages, which undermine your effectiveness at work and in life.

    My proprietary methodology empowers people to claim space through enhanced, actionable communication skills.

    This results in more equitable collaborations, confident thought leadership, and innovative leadership.

    This presentation can be customized specifically for women, or be given to all genders.

    Topics: Voice (silence, cadence, pitch, volume), Body Language (high and low behaviors) Intersectionality, Claiming Space

  • The Power of Authentic Networking

    Stand Tall. Raise Your Voice. Be Heard.

    I reject old-school, ineffective transactional networking—it just doesn’t work in today’s world.

    But my new approach does.

    This method of networking will give women the tools they need to create and nurture effective, powerful ‘old girl’ networks.

    I developed it for women to know their worth, clear their inner circle of negative influences, and build strategies for authentic, long lasting community building that will open doors and promote positive change.

    Topics: ANTImentors, The Scarcity Myth, Imposter Syndrome, Horizontal v. Vertical Help, Relationship Economy, Intersectionality
