Keynote Topics

1. Leading from the inside out

Much of what we do is done by habit i.e. we do things because we have done them previously. This keynote aims to disrupt these habits.

Intended audience:

• Individuals seeking career progression
• Self-improvers interested in character development
• People striving to form good habits
• Anyone who want to implement new routines in their organisations

Providing tools and techniques (physical and cognitive) which reveal new levels of personal awareness, improve decision making and support habit change on an individual and organisational level.

• Why facts don’t change people!

Changing minds including our own can be a very tricky business.  Simple logic suggests that giving people the facts will move them to change their minds but this doesn’t work.

Intended audience:

• People striving to form good habits
• Organisations looking for growth by creating new markets and economies
• Anyone interested in communication strategies for business
• Anyone who wants to learn how to influence others
• Anyone worries about dealing with complexity

This a  framework for making better decisions by having better conversations and a new way of framing your beliefs and opinions that is both strong and vulnerable.

• Are you paying attention?

The cycle of moral panic around screen time, distraction and how the  “the internet is ruining us” feels endless – why this is happening is complex and difficult to fully understand.  There is one thing that is for certain – it is more important today than ever that a leader is able to bring focus to every part of the organisation.

Intended audience:

• Entrepreneurial organisations wishing to disrupt markets
• Individuals interested in the impact of social media
• Programmers, inventors of anyone fascinated by artificial intelligence

Providing tools and techniques (physical and cognitive) which reveal new levels of personal awareness, improve decision making and support habit change on an individual and organisational level.
