Keynote Topics

Self-promotion at work can have a huge impact on your own confidence and how others see your value. Stef will share the best ways to build your credibility, show your worth and share why you’re a brilliant asset to your company.

For many people, imposter syndrome and self-doubt can be the biggest barrier to achieving career goals. Stef aims to challenge limiting beliefs, enables talent to recognise their potential, and empowers them to reach current goals and future ambitions.

Understanding emotional intelligence in the workplace is an essential skill to help you reach your professional goals. Stef will share the core emotional intelligence skills and tactics that will help to improve processes and productivity and enable you to use your own skills more effectively.

Making your ideas heard
Got an idea but not sure how to present it or make it heard by the right people? Stef will share tools and preparation techniques that will help empower individuals to use their voice, share their ideas without fear and understand how build a business case for implementing it.

Pitching and Presenting
Public speaking can be intimidating for many which is why Stef makes it her mission to help people feel more confident with presenting. Whether it’s for a pitch, internal meeting or to a large audience, Stef will share all the techniques you need to captivate your viewers and make them remember you.

Networking Internally
With more teams working remotely, the opportunity to connect and build relationships with the people we work with has reduced. That means it’s even more important to actively invest in growing mutually beneficial relationships, raising our profile virtually and exploring the best ways to provide value to co-workers.

Feedback Matters
Giving and receiving feedback doesn’t need to be a difficult experience if you handle with care. In this talk, Stef will guide you on the best ways to gather, deliver, and implement feedback that could have a huge impact on your career/client relationships.

Negotiating Master class
Getting the outcome you want is all about knowing how to clearly communicate your business value. Stef will teach you everything you need to know to showcase your impact and confidently handle your next conversation.

Stefanie Sword-Williams is not just a TEDx speaker—she is a cultural force redefining how we talk about confidence, career growth, and personal branding. As the founder of Fck Being Humble*, Stefanie has created an unapologetic movement that encourages professionals worldwide to embrace their accomplishments and break free from the constraints of modesty that often hold them back. Her refreshing take on self-promotion has earned her global recognition, particularly among next-generation leaders and forward-thinking organizations seeking to foster authentic empowerment in the workplace.

Combining bold storytelling, lived experience, and tangible strategies, Stefanie’s talks are far more than motivational—they are transformative. With a message rooted in realness and relatability, she dismantles societal taboos around “bragging” and provides her audiences with the tools to celebrate their wins without guilt. Whether she’s addressing corporate teams, entrepreneurs, or students, Stefanie delivers a consistent and compelling call to action: Own your story, speak your truth, and stop shrinking to fit outdated norms.

Stefanie Sword-Williams stands at the intersection of empowerment, marketing, and career advocacy. Her personal journey—from feeling invisible in professional spaces to becoming a globally recognized speaker and author—is the foundation of the F*ck Being Humble movement, which she launched to challenge conventional notions of humility and promote self-advocacy. This movement quickly grew into a consultancy and speaking platform that partners with some of the world’s most impactful brands and organizations, including Google, Warner Music, Amazon, and Unilever.

Her bestselling book, Fck Being Humble: Why Self-Promotion Isn’t a Dirty Word*, has been embraced as a guidebook for anyone navigating career uncertainty or impostor syndrome. The book and her keynotes have sparked critical conversations around mental health, workplace inclusion, and self-worth—topics that Stefanie addresses with both sensitivity and strength. Her unique voice has resonated with over 100,000 people globally, from early-career professionals to senior executives looking to reshape how their teams show up and thrive.

What truly sets Stefanie apart is her practical and personable approach. She doesn’t just tell people to be more confident—she shows them how. Her content is grounded in evidence-based techniques, accessible language, and a sharp understanding of human psychology. Through keynotes, workshops, and live events, Stefanie Sword-Williams equips her audience with confidence-building frameworks, storytelling tools, and self-branding tactics they can implement immediately. Her work has been featured in Forbes, BBC Worklife, Stylist, and The Times, further cementing her authority in the personal development and career empowerment space.

A champion of inclusion and mental health, Stefanie Sword-Williams also collaborates with HR and DEI leaders to integrate self-advocacy training into company cultures. Her sessions often act as catalysts for improved communication, increased employee engagement, and a redefined sense of belonging within organizations. Whether she’s on stage at TEDx or leading a breakout session at a global summit, Stefanie delivers insights that spark courage, conversation, and long-term change.
