    INCLUSIVELY PRACTICAL
    Practical and applied behavioral science
    Over 25-years of research and practice in organizations across the globe has led to the development of an extremely efficient and effective method for change; The Include Change Method. Think of it like a life-hack, but for change and transformation. It works at the individual, team , and organizational level.

    INCLUSIVELY CURIOUS
    Always learning
    We know we don’t know everything there is to know about inclusion, so we are always curious to learn more about people, the world around us, and the organizations we work with. We do A LOT of research (it’s basically what we do for fun in our spare time)! And we spend a heap of time analyzing what works, what doesn’t, and what could be done better to create inclusion for all people.

    INCLUSIVELY DIFFERENT
    Letzbe approaches inclusion differently
    We do inclusion differently by focussing on the whole person and the 8-inclusion needs of all people (instead of just the single identity labels that someone else assigns us). If you’d like to learn more about the approach you can download and read Dr. Liz Wilson’s peer reviewed journal article:

    Dr. Liz Wilson is a behavioral scientist, organizational transformation expert, and founder of Include Inc. Originally from Australia and now based in the United States, Dr. Liz is well known for her authentic, honest, and pragmatic approach to everything she does.

    This includes her simple, yet powerful, Include Change Method that has achieved amazing results for her clients over the span of her 25+ year career. Dr. Liz has transformed the ways of working and cultures of dozens of global organizations including; major airlines, banks, consumer goods, telecommunications, mining, rail, tech and medtech companies.

    With a professional purpose that has always centered around the desire to equip individuals, teams, and organizations to thrive; Dr. Liz’s unrelenting curiosity also led her to research and find the solution to inclusion transformation, and reducing discrimination, with the development of the 8-Inclusion Needs of all People.

    Dr. Liz Wilson, who holds a Ph.D. in organizational culture and behavior, is on a mission to create a world where everyone is included and valued for their difference. For the first 20+ years of her career, Dr. Liz worked with some of the world’s most notable brands through their business transformations until she witnessed the discrimination of a loved one.

    From that moment on, she has dedicated herself to finding a solution to discrimination. By combining her organizational transformation and behavioral science expertise, Dr. Liz Wilson went to work and discovered a simple solution that eliminates the focus on our differences and focuses on “The 8 Specific Needs of All People©”.

    With a desire to create a world where everyone is included, Dr. Liz Wilson knew she had to work out a way to equip everyone to be inclusive. From this, Include was born. In August 2020, Dr. Liz secured venture capital in a year when only 2% of venture capital funds were invested in female founders. Fast forward 12-months, and Include is now the world’s first enterprise software designed to equip everyone to make inclusive decisions in real-time.

    Dr. Liz Wilson is not your average DEI keynote presenter. She invites you into her life with insightful honesty and humor, serving as the mirror for the audience on how the exclusion people face is not because of their difference but because of the barriers we put in their place. Breaking the news to participants that celebrating labels with cupcakes won’t get us to inclusion, she shares a simple yet powerfully impactful approach to creating an environment where all people can thrive.

    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.
