Most Requested Keynote Topics
Why Accountability is not a Dirty Word and How to get it Right
(when so many get it wrong)
​
Most people will say that they want to be held accountable and yet those same people often struggle on how to get others to take ownership and do what needs to get done. We use words like ‘You need to be more accountable” to get commitment from others. Or we simply give up trying. This keynote will help participants to feel more confident and think differently about how to engage others in getting work done.
​
Audience Transformation​
-
Create shared accountability with the people you work with, so everyone feels committed
-
Get others to feel true ownership against their commitments
-
Bring things back on track when others are not meeting their commitments
Us and Them – Closing the Divide between Competing Beliefs
​
We are a world divided; by our experience, by our culture, by our beliefs. And this tension shows up in our work and in our relationships. Diversity is essential to growth. And yet it is a struggle to relate to those who do not think the same as us. This keynote will help participants to embrace their differences, recognize their assumptions and find ways to thrive in a divided world.
​
Audience Transformation​
-
Build trust with those they are ‘fighting’ against
-
Understand and challenge personal biases and assumptions
-
Learn how to find commonality towards mutual benefit
Conflict Enablement NOT Management – Leaning in to Difficult Conversations
​
The typical model of conflict is fight or flight. I believe there is a different option. Conflict is not meant to be ‘managed’ or shut away. It is meant to be leveraged and explored so that we can understand one another better. Conflict is essential to reduce conflict. Some avoid it. Others aggressively defend their position. This keynote will help participants to see the benefit of engaging in conflict, in a respectful, effective way.
​
Audience Transformation​
-
Engage in positive conflict to build relationships, not fracture them
-
Be courageous and manage your emotions
-
Advocate for your perspective and the perspective of others.

Satisified clients say
At our signature NEXTUp Mentoring event, Christi, our keynote speaker, perfectly set the tone for our event. Not only was she an engaging speaker but she generously shared her vulnerability. This inspired others to open up and have deep, table conversations about the challenges in their own lives.
