Sarita Maybin provides her audiences with the skills to transform uncomfortable conversations into constructive communication. With real stories, real solutions and a relatable presence, she breaks down barriers to reveal how to work together better.
In her 20+ years as an international speaker and communication expert, Maybin has spoken in all 50 states, 10 countries—including Iceland—and on the prestigious TEDx stage. Her extensive client list includes Hewlett-Packard, Los Angeles County, Kaiser Permanente, Department of the Navy, University of California and many others.
Maybin has made it her mission to inspire others to embrace positivity, even amid the challenges of our ever-changing high-tech times. Raised as a “military brat” moving from country to country, Maybin quickly learned that it’s just what you say but how you say it that matters.
She is a former university dean of students and literally wrote the book on how to answer the perpetually perplexing question: "If You Can’t Say Something Nice, What DO You Say?" She continues the conversation in her new book "Say What You Mean in a Nice Way."
