Keynote TALKS that wake up your workforce.
Memorable, measurable and mindset-shifting keynotes
for companies smart enough to know: being radically human is the new competitive edge.
AI is changing how we work — fast.
It’s efficient. Relentless. Doesn’t need a lunch break and never cries in the stairwell. But it’s not creative. Or courageous. Or kind. And while the tech evolves overnight, your people are still catching up - overwhelmed, uncertain, and wondering where they fit in.
That’s where I come in.
I help audiences reconnect with what makes them brilliant: their humanity. Because robots might be great at tasks - but they can’t lead a team, spark a movement, or give a shit about someone else’s bad day.
“Kirsty’s talks aren’t just heard, they are felt”
You don’t need another talk on “navigating change” or “embracing innovation” that leaves people asleep in their conference chair scrolling LinkedIn.
You need a message that makes people laugh, feel seen, and leave with actual tools - not just a motivational quote and a biscuit.
Why Kirsty?
Author of Don’t Swear at Work (and other bullsh*t), global keynote speaker, founder and workplace culture expert — I help organisations build braver, more human teams. I’ve spoken on stages in 30+ countries. Trained over 70,000 professionals at companies like LinkedIn, Amazon, Spotify and Meta. And built two businesses from the ground up — one of which hit nearly $1M in its first year.
But more than that, I’ve spent the last decade studying why the way we work feels so hard — and showing people how to fix it. My keynotes are bold, funny, emotionally charged and practical. People walk away feeling seen, energised, and ready to lead with more courage, creativity, and actual joy.
So whether your audience is a room of senior execs, early-career talent, or “please no more slides” skeptics — I’ll meet them exactly where they are, and move them somewhere better.
Here are some of the most in-demand themes I deliver (always tailored, never templated):
-
Confidence isn’t something you’re born with. It’s something you build. Most people don’t need more skills — they need more belief. This keynote unpacks how to practise confidence like a habit, rewrite unhelpful narratives, and show up even when you're full of doubt.
-
Leading people means understanding people — including yourself. This talk explores modern leadership through the lens of emotional intelligence, empathy, and the ability to connect deeply. It’s about showing up with authority and humanity in a world that needs both.
-
Motivation doesn’t come from pressure. It comes from purpose, play, and self-trust. We’re not robots (yet). This talk helps people reignite their spark, connect to meaningful work, and stay motivated in a way that’s actually sustainable.
-
Because your people don’t need time management tips — they need space to think. This keynote helps teams cut through the noise, focus on what matters, and reclaim their attention in a world designed to steal it. It's not about doing more — it's about doing what matters better.
“A hilarious, relatable and practical middle finger to convention”
Kirsty’s second book “Don’t Swear At Work” is the guide every modern workforce needs to collaberate, communicate and work better together. (Because it’s currently a bit shit, isn’t it)
