When your business is based in Hawaii, your events reflect more than just your brand—they reflect your values, your community, and your kuleana (responsibility). Whether you’re planning an employee training, client appreciation event, leadership offsite, or industry panel, having the right speaker matters.

You want someone who understands Hawaii’s business culture, speaks with credibility, and brings more than just hype—you want real insights, clear takeaways, and lasting impact.

That’s where I come in.

I’m Anna Covert, a Hawaii-based speaker, Forbes-published author, and owner of Covert Communication, the largest digital marketing agency in the state. I help local companies elevate their events by delivering customized, high-impact talks that combine data-driven strategy with the values of Aloha.

Why Hire a Hawaii-Based Speaker?

1. Cultural Fluency Matters
Mainland speakers often miss the mark. They don’t understand the importance of relationships, local values, or the subtle nuances of communicating effectively in Hawaii. As a kamaʻāina business owner, I speak with authenticity, respect, and purpose—whether addressing C-level execs or small teams.

2. You Can Keep It Local—and Level Up
You don’t need to fly someone in to get a speaker with national-level experience. I’ve consulted for 100+ companies, spoken at events across the U.S., and been published by Forbes—but my roots are right here in the islands.

3. Business Focused, Action Oriented
From Waikiki conference rooms to Maui retreats and neighbor island boardrooms, I work with organizations of all sizes to help them get clear on goals, solve real problems, and leave with a game plan—not just a good feeling.
