Leaders, We’ve Got This! Unlocking Belonging in Organizations
Many team members feel constant pressure to mask and curate who they are at work — to perform as someone they’re not rather than be who they are. And it strikes at their ability to belong. This inspiring and practical keynote discusses the key pillars for unlocking belonging in your organization as a leader, by cultivating inclusion, psychological safety, and trust.
Authentic Leadership: Creating Cultures of Engagement
Organizational cultures that cultivate authenticity help to unlock experiences of engagement, belonging, innovation, trust, and psychological safety for all team members. In fact, it’s in environments where leaders embrace authentic leadership that team members feel like they can bring their whole selves to work and contribute to their fullest. This empowering keynote delves into what authentic leadership is and how leaders can leverage it to foster cultures of engagement.

We’ve Got This: Unlocking the Beauty of Belonging

This empowering and practical keynote uncovers how to make this happen by highlighting leading research, inclusion, and leadership tools.
Rise Through The Authenticity Principle: Live, Work & Lead More Authentically
We know from research that experiencing bias and judgment causes professionals to conform and mask aspects of their identities, striking at their ability to be who they are.

This practical keynote showcases the Three Selves Framework™ as the key for living, working, and leading in a more authentic way – all to unlock belonging.
