Keynote Topics

Perhaps it’s not surprising that many HR professionals, corporate leaders, and employees are not satisfied with the current state of performance management. I always get zero hands raised when I ask participants to raise their hands if they are satisfied with their current performance management systems in many conferences across multiple industries in different countries.

Organisations spend valuable resources on performance management systems that don’t actually work for anyone. There is plenty of evidence that traditional performance management systems are not even close to delivering on their promises for many reasons.

Over the past decade, I was fortunate to be entrusted by several employers to experiment with new practices and interventions to revamp and reinvent performance management systems and their associated leadership practices, driven by robust constructs of positive and organizational psychology to drive innovation, foster engagement, enhance wellbeing and incorporate collaborative intelligence into organisation’s DNA.

This keynote is crafted to provide a unique thoughtful experience for our attendees to rethink the reality of today’s talent management landscape, what type of talents organizations need to ensure their performance management systems can nurture and why organizations need more intrapreneurs in order to thrive rather than survive in today’s economy.

Reimagine leadership in today’s hyper-competitive and hyper-connected world to help talents bring their whole self to work, capitalizing on their character strengths and how they can collaboratively work to augment their intelligence as a team alongside today’s powerful technologies such as chat-gpt and Artificially intelligent new colleagues.

Exploring possible interventions and practices to reinvent your performance management system alongside a multi-dimensional integrated model of our very own Growth and Impact system that is designed and implemented to drive innovation, foster engagement and collaborative intelligence, capitalizing on the synergistic power of strength-based approaches, peer caching, job crafting and positive psychology coaching.

Welcome to the post-digital age, where hyper-competition, hyper-connectedness, accelerated technology advances, E-commerce, ageing population, scarcity of resources and massive enhancements in Artificial and intelligence are among a plethora of factors that are powerfully impacting the global dispersion of work today,

Urging workplaces to reinvent themselves and reimagine innovative approaches to leadership, whilst moving from rigid, disciplined and controlled beehives towards agile, flexible, responsive and innovative slinky-coil like organisations that can thrive rather than just striving to survive in an ever-changing complex world.

This keynote is designed to inspire your audience to reimagine leadership practices in light of today’s global challenges, whilst examining foreseeable forces that impact today’s workplace and the world of work. Leadership is one of the most widely discussed topics and it might be considered the most important factor in organisational success and sustainability.

Leadership and technology are quite similar in terms of how fast they are changing and evolving every day.

Your audience will surely leave inspired with some practical insights that they can put into practice immediately to improve leadership practices within their teams and organizations.

Over the past two decades, many organisational scholars and psychologists mulled over how the emerging science of positive psychology can be used to improve employee well-being and organisational effectiveness, resulting in a number of ways and interventions the world of work can be improved by positive psychology science across various relevant fields, comprising management, leadership and human resources management.

As a psychologist, I’m committed to putting science to work, blessed to experience mind-blowing results when positive psychology constructs and concepts are incorporated into organisational leadership and HR systems and practices to help talent thrive and flourish.

This keynote is crafted to offer fascinating thoughts about how positive psychology interventions and applications can revamp our workplaces today, creating meaningful experiences at work, glueing talents to their purposes, connecting their strengths to their jobs, and maximizing their impact on both organisational and personal growth.

Such a very unique keynote will certainly make your audience’s minds buzz with ideas and thoughts to transform workplace experiences and rethink many taboos and legacy practices to help their talents thrive and flourish up to their fullest potential.

Employee engagement and collaborative intelligence might be two different topics but they are greatly interrelated and intertwined.

They are both critical pillars for organisational growth and sustainability, particularly in today’s dynamic and changing world. After the Covid-19 pandemic, the world has moved from its scary version of VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, ambiguity, complexity and ambiguity) to another scarier version of BANI (Brittle, Anxious, Non-Linear and Incomprehensible).

This keynote combines theory with practice to help your audience differentiate work from employee engagement, explore practical ways of measuring real engagement, and clearly monitor the impact of their HR or leadership interventions effectively.

Furthermore, such a knowledge-dense talk focuses on the correlation between engagement, collaborative intelligence, agility and innovation, equipping your audience with practical tips, towards removing inclusion barriers to ensure diverse talents are empowered to collaboratively work to make innovation a responsibility for everyone.

Talent FAQ's

Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.

Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.

The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.

Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.

Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.

  • Virtual speaking appearances are a cost-effective alternative to high speaking fees, often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates.
  • There is typically no difference in fee for a 15-minute speech versus a 60-minute speech.
  • Some motivational speakers are open to discounting their fee if hired for more than one event by the same organization.
  • When browsing speakers, consider their location to keep travel costs down.
  • Personal connections to your organization or event location can increase your chances of securing a renowned speaker.
  • Be upfront about your needs and expectations to ensure a successful partnership.
  • Speaker bureaus like Speakers Inc help guide you through the booking process to negotiate the best deal with favorable terms.
