Where Human Connection Takes Center Stage

Where Human Connection Takes Center Stage

Great events can be flawlessly executed and still leave attendees feeling disconnected. In this episode, Seth Macchi sits down with international keynote speaker, behavioral expert, and author Heather Hansen O’Neill to explore what it means to bring more humanity into the event experience.

Heather discusses why helping attendees feel seen, heard, and valued can make such a meaningful difference, and how planners can create stronger connections by paying closer attention to the people behind the registration numbers. She also shares her approach to incorporating adventure, movement, and unexpected experiences into events, along with the personal story that inspired her book Finding Humanity: The Evolution of Sales. Their discussion offers a different way to think about event success, one that puts genuine human connection at the center of the experience.
