From expertise to influence: Inside Kendall Bonner’s The Industry Speaks Academy
About this episode
Audiences are tired of recycled talking points, and housing events are feeling the pressure. In this episode of Ten Minute Talks, HousingWire’s Brena Nath talks with Kendall Bonner, Founder & CEO of The Industry Speaks Academy, about why the future of housing depends on new voices, sharper storytelling, and why public speaking, not technology, is the key to unlocking better housing conversations.
Bonner shares how The Industry Speaks Academy prepares industry leaders to communicate complex ideas like AI,housing affordability, and innovation in ways that resonate emotionally and drive action. The result: more compelling stages, better conversations, and an industry that leads instead of reacts.
