Connection by Design: Building Strong Networks
We face a paradox today: We’re more digitally connected than ever—yet more socially disconnected. The rise of hybrid work, digital communication, and relentless busyness has frayed our relational fabric, leaving us more isolated, less engaged, and increasingly unsure how to foster meaningful human connection both in person and online.
But connection isn’t a soft skill—it’s a leadership and business development function, and it can be designed.
This keynote draws from UX principles, behavioral science, and leadership psychology to equip audience members with actionable strategies for designing deeper and more authentic connections. You’ll learn how to strengthen your network through the often-overlooked power of weak ties, foster human moments in person and digitally, and intentionally craft interactions that create belonging and trust.
You'll be up out of your seats putting the techniques in practice and making new connections before the session is over!

-
Build and maintain a visible, authentic presence
-
Structure interactions to foster trust, psychological safety, and informal connection
-
Apply strategies to intentionally design for human connectionÂ
- Walk away with confidence built from practice during the session
-
Recognize the importance of weak ties and how to activate themÂ
Your Brain on Change: How to Upgrade for the Future
Change is constant, but our brains aren’t always ready for it. Why do some people adapt seamlessly while others struggle? The answer lies in how we’re wired—and, more importantly, how we can rewire ourselves for success in a constantly changing environment.
In this dynamic keynote, we’ll explore how your brain functions like a high-powered computer: your hardware (brain) runs an operating system (your worldview), which supports programs (your mindset) and apps (your habits and thinking patterns). The good news? Just like technology, you can upgrade your mental software to better navigate uncertainty, embrace innovation, and thrive in an ever-changing world.
What you will learn:
- Why your brain naturally resists change—and how to override that instinct.
- How to reprogram outdated mental habits that are holding you back.
- The latest brain wave research that reveals how to shift into a high-performance state when facing change.
This keynote isn’t just about understanding change—it’s about mastering it. With actionable strategies and a fresh perspective on how your brain works, you’ll leave equipped to upgrade your mindset, optimize your habits, and future-proof your success.

Reconnecting in a Disconnected World
The rise of technology and the internet has enabled us to be more connected than ever before. Paradoxically, this increased connectivity has also led to a growing sense of disconnection from the people and communities around us. From the rise of social isolation and loneliness to increased depression and anxiety, the negative impacts of disconnection are pervasive both inside and outside of work.
This session will confront these challenges head-on and provide practical solutions for reconnecting with others and building stronger, more resilient communities.
Ultimately, "Reconnecting in a Disconnected World" is a call to action for individuals to take a more proactive role in building strong, supportive organizations that can withstand the challenges of our rapidly changing work and world. By embracing the power of connection, we can create a more vibrant, healthy, and fulfilling workplace and society that benefits us all.
By the end of this keynote you’ll be able to:
- Recognize the need to connect and stay connected
- Design interactions that foster strong relationships
- Adapt to an ever-changing world that insists we connect in different ways
