After Dinner Speakers
CEO, Neuroworx | Founder, Roar Training & Confidence Live
In this engaging session, Kirsty addresses the importance of intentional hope amidst chaos, rather than toxic positivity. She combines psychology, humour, and candid insights to help attendees maintain focus and motivation without the pressure to pretend everything is fine. Participants will leave with a reframed understanding of stress and motivation, as well as tools to recharge without guilt. They'll also gain
strategies to feel hopeful (not just positive), energy, laughter and a real plan to keep moving forward.
HOW TO MOVE FROM AI ANXIETY TO AI CURIOSITY (TRENDING KEYNOTE)
In this session, Kirsty addresses the rapid changes brought by AI and how they can overwhelm us. She provides practical strategies to help teams navigate this uncertainty by reframing change as an opportunity rather than a threat. With insights from technology history and behavioural science, Kirsty encourages audiences to embrace curiosity over anxiety. Attendees will learn to stay optimistic, manage fear, and remain human, visible and valuable, as their roles evolve in this dynamic
landscape.
BE HEARD, BACKED & REMEMBERED EVERY TIME YOU SPEAK (INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY)
This funny, inspiring talk starts from a simple truth: women don’t need fixing. Kirsty blends psychology, communication science, and deeply human storytelling to share practical habits that enable women to be seen and heard without compromising their authenticity. Attendees leave knowing not just what makes people listen - but how to apply it in real life: in meetings where they’re interrupted, in rooms where they’re
overlooked, and in moments where their work deserves to be heard, backed and remembered. This talk is a celebration of women’s authority - not a workshop on how to squeeze into someone else’s idea of it
LEADERSHIP AND COMMUNICATION SKILLS FOR TODAY
Kirsty explores how effective leadership hinges on understanding oneself and others. She delves into the importance of emotional intelligence and empathy, highlighting the need for leaders to connect deeply with their teams. By balancing authority with humanity, leaders can navigate today's complex landscape. Attendees will learn how to enhance their leadership skills through emotional awareness and foster meaningful connections within their organisations.
HOW TO BUILD A GROWTH MINDSET AT WORK
Kirsty challenges the conventional view of a growth mindset, revealing its messy and uncomfortable reality in modern workplaces. She addresses how fear, perfectionism, and imposter syndrome hinder growth and offers strategies to overcome these barriers. Attendees will learn to shift from perfectionism to progress, reframe failure and feedback, build confidence through action, and foster team cultures that prioritise learning over appearances. This engaging session is perfect for leaders and teams seeking meaningful growth.
CULTIVATING CONFIDENCE AND POSITIVITY
In this keynote, Kirsty reveals that confidence is not innate but developed through practice. She argues that many individuals require more belief in themselves rather than additional skills. Attendees will learn how to cultivate confidence as a habit, transform negative narratives, and present themselves confidently, even in moments
of self-doubt. This session aims to empower participants to embrace positivity and strengthen their self-belief for personal and professional growth.
