She connects with everyone from extroverts to those with social anxiety, delivering “relatable,” “practical” advice and her signature “5th Question” technique that participants call “the best tips on improving networking” they’ve ever encountered.
Her “amazing” storytelling and genuine approach equip attendees with immediate tools to build deeper relationships, leaving them feeling “inspired,” “enlightened,” and newly confident in their ability to connect meaningfully with others.

Biography

Gina Glover is a professional speaker, coach and most importantly, a connector. Her clients would tell you one of her greatest gifts is her ability to foster connections. She’s done this since moving to northeast Wisconsin in 1996. In addition to growing her business, Gina Connects, she volunteers her time for several organizations including the Wisconsin Chapter of the National Speakers Association where she serves in a marketing capacity on their board, as well as her local Toastmasters club.

Additionally, Gina serves on the board of the local Habitat for Humanity affiliate and donates her time to mentor entrepreneurs through Mid-Day Women’s Alliance. Her signature keynote helps attendees move past the mundane small talk often associated with networking events and toward the development of real relationships and she does this through her trademarked strategy called the 5^th Question.

Gina has shared this talk with organizations and associations including ABS Global, J.F. Ahern, the Wisconsin Chapter of Meeting Planners International, the Wisconsin State SHRM Conference and many more. When she’s not speaking or coaching, you can find Gina traveling with her husband and two kids somewhere in the U.S. as she continues her quest to run a race in every state.
