Holding the dual designations of CSP (Certified Speaking Professional) and CPAE (Council of Peers Award for Excellence) from the National Speakers Association, an achievement attained by fewer than 1% of all professional speakers worldwide, Mikki Williams is a member of the prestigious Speaker Hall of Fame. Beyond her accolades, Williams is also recognized as an international speaker, trainer, consultant, coach, author, and entrepreneur, known for her transformative and thought-provoking storytelling.

An award-winning speaker and Master Chair with Vistage, the world’s leading executive organization, Mikki Williams has made a significant impact as a speaker on the global stage. Notably, she has spoken for influential figures such as Bush, Clinton, and Nelson Mandela at his residence in South Africa. Her vast client roster spans from the Million Dollar Round Table to the IRS. Williams has shared stages with luminaries like Suze Orman and Tony Robbins, and her contributions have been recognized in major publications such as The Wall Street Journal and Forbes. She has also been highlighted as one of the "Outstanding Connecticut Women of the Decade" by the United Nations, and her life story is set to be adapted into a book and a TV movie.

In her presentations, Mikki Williams employs unconventional audiovisual aids like Play-Doh and PIES cards, avoiding traditional PowerPoint slides, to engage her audiences effectively across a myriad of topics that include leadership, customer service, and empowerment. Her ability to connect with diverse international audiences—from the Cree Indians of Canada to bankers in Australia—underscores her adaptability and expertise. Moreover, her engaging speaking style, frequently infused with humor, has led her to speak in every US state, every Canadian province, and on every continent except Antarctica, where, humorously, she notes the impracticality of wearing her stilettos.
