Speaking
The concept of the Mind Filter is new even to experienced leaders. Most find it both surprising and personally recognizable. The fact that non-conscious motivation shapes more than two-thirds of leadership behavior, often in tension with conscious goals, makes it one of the most underused areas for improving long-term results, engagement, and the experience of leading itself.
Participants leave with a genuine shift in how they think about their own leadership: what to pay attention to, what to let go of, and where the real potential for improvement lies.
The content can be adapted to fit your organization's current context with topics like executing strategy, resilience to change and uncertainty or transforming organizational culture.

Keynote
The keynote challenges leaders to rethink assumptions they haven't been conscious of until now. It helps them see what's been quietly shaping their priorities, let go of things that slow them down, and shift toward bolder aspirations about what genuinely matters.
We explore:
Why the things that feel most important are often what's holding you back
What the evidence shows about the patterns that distinguish outstanding leaders
The few things that successful leaders focus on to make a real and lasting difference
How to stay focused on what matters under stress and pressure
Followed by Q&A if desired.
45–90 minutes.
Ideal for leadership conferences, company-wide events, and HR summits.
In-person or online.
Leadership Team Session
This session explores how leadership team members' Mind Filter patterns shape how the team works together and the effects this has on culture, collaboration, and results across the organization.
A more conversational format with time for reflection and discussion.
We explore:
Why are things that feel so important often holding you back?
What are the most important beliefs to let go of?
The four things that successful leaders focus on to make a real difference.
How good intentions can have unintended consequences on collaboration, accountability, and escalation in the company.
Can be followed by Q&A.
45–90 minutes.
Ideal for leadership off-sites, executive meetings, and as a starting point for team development.
In-person or online.
Insight Session
Designed for teams or smaller groups who want specific input on a topic that's high on their agenda — whether that's strategy execution, employee engagement, developing high potentials, or something else entirely. You choose the topic, and we explore it through the lens of non-conscious motivation.
We explore:
What is the approach that feels intuitively right and that most leaders take?
What does the evidence say about what actually works?
What specific priorities would be worth considering for your situation?
30–45 minutes.
Ideal for off-sites, team days, or lunch-and-learn sessions.
In-person or online.
I'm happy to discuss how a session could work for your audience and context. The content can be adapted to what matters most to your organization right now — whether that's executing strategy, improving collaboration, engaging talent, building resilience, or something else.
