Organizations are so focused on adding diversity into a workplace that they don’t fully understand what inclusion means. In my presentations, I decode the research around inclusion and indemnity thereof. I bring it into organizational life by providing practical tools for becoming a truly inclusive organization.

Most of us are uncomfortable talking about character because we view it as something deeply personal and largely unchangeable. Even now, no useful leadership model includes character as the most critical, foundational attribute of leadership.

Only a tiny percentage of today's workforce is truly engaged. Most people are quiet quitters. Leaders are challenged by the demands of meeting KPIs and this could be an understandable blocker of taking responsibility of inclusion in their workforce. Ownership is the key to ensuring engagement. I love to decrypt what it means to really win at engagement. How do we recognize when people actually take full ownership of their work? And then, what can we do about it?

High performing teams are not formed by the most intelligent people from prestigious universities. Something else helps a group become a cohesive team and gives them a competitive advantage. In this keynote, I talk about the five functions of an effective team and what it takes from individuals and leaders to establish high performing teams.

AI is being welcomed into the global workforce and subsequently human engagement is at 23%. In this keynote I break down whether or not we are thriving or striving at work? Are we able to design our careers for thriving through change in pace, demand and technology. I help individuals and teams understand how to turn fear into opportunity.
