The Art & Science of Non-Verbal Communication
Imagine a workplace with empowered leaders, teams, and individuals who are connected through the heart of human interaction -- caring, authentic communication. It boosts collaboration, engagement, and well-being in the workplace and beyond.

This keynote explores the art of authentic communication -- why it's vital for personal and professional success, and how to create meaningful connections despite the digital noise.

Drawing on her expertise in neurolinguistics, psychology, human factors and human behavior, Amanda reveals the keys to overcoming the barriers that prevent effective communication, such as fear, insecurity, and uncertainty.

Mastering the skills of non-verbal communication is critical for authentically connecting with others. And it's not just body language. The unspoken and often unaddressed truth is that business is all about feelings! How people feel at work - about themselves and work really matters. And leaders and cultures are the main drivers of those feelings.

People want to feel recognized, cared for, valued, acknowledged, heard and seen - whether they are clients, team members, leaders, customers, partners or colleagues. Authentic, sensitive communication and connection is the secret to creating a psychologically safe and thriving work culture.

Attendees will leave with practical, science-backed tools to truly connect with others, build trust, foster empathy, handle difficult conversations. grow emotional intelligence, build rapport, and feel confident and comfortable in any conversation.

This keynote is about how to turn burnout into your organization's greatest opportunity for growth and equips delegates with the tools and mindset to choose wisely and embrace optimism and a brighter future.

The last few years have taken their toll on everyone! Burnout seems an epidemic. Bathed in uncertainty about everything, our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing has been seriously impacted. Many of us are living with fear, unmotivated, anxious, stressed and feeling burnt out.

It's time to reinforce the value of personal responsibility, connection and joy.

Activating Awareness Inside for Sales and Leadership Success
Imagine leaders and salespeople who inspire trust, teams that connect deeply, and cultures where people aren't just productive -- they're passionate. Amanda doesn't deliver ordinary keynotes, she creates experiences; she equips audiences to harness the Real AI within and sparks revolutions in thinking that ripple through entire organizations.

The ultimate human advantage is conscious awareness. Science shows us that 95-99% of the time, we are literally unconscious of our thoughts. This affects every aspect of decision making and how we connect, communicate and feel.

People have not fundamentally changed for a thousand years but science has. The "operating system" of a human is not binary based! It's more like quantum computing and runs on feelings.

Learn new, neuroscience based practical skills and strategies to re-engage your sales force, leaders or team in a way that leaves everyone feeling recharged and resilient - and find out what the REAL AI is!

Using Amanda's signature experience creating, humor loaded yet fact filled style, people will walk away thinking differently about sales, leadership and how they interact with others.

Transforming sales results begins with transforming our thinking, perceptions, actions and choices. Knowing precise ways to interact with others to prove that we are competent, trustworthy and safe (a feeling) is required for top performance.

This isn't about fleeting happiness; it's about harnessing the transformative, measurable power of joy to elevate every facet of your organization. Our brains can be rewired for joy. This session teaches us how.

Everything in business is about feelings. Trust, empathy, confidence, cooperation, collaboration, leadership, responses to change - these are just some of the elements (feelings) that create a great culture, attract and keep great people and build a high functioning team.

This keynote is aimed at helping people feel good about themselves - which improves the way they interact with everyone else - colleagues, clients and family. And helping them create environments where others feel good.

The Joy of Change: Change Isn't Something to Fear -- It's an Opportunity to Embrace
Mastering the neuroscience of change gives us tools to shift mindsets, break habits, connect and thrive in fast-changing environments.

People with a growth mindset are early adopters of change and embrace it. People with fixed mindsets are terrified of change and resist it at all costs. Imagine a team of growth mindset people who are creative, adaptable, innovative, joyful and love the growth the comes with change. That's what this keynote creates.

You are not your mindset - but your mindset creates your life!

Understanding mindsets and mindfulness literally changes wiring of your brain and improves performance, leadership, decision making, creativity; flexibility; reduces anxiety, stress, depression and reactivity; increases energy, wellbeing, makes you happier and more likely to embrace change.

This session will show you simple ways to mindful, be more present, more adaptable, more effective, more courageous - and more successful! It will deliver specific skills that will help attendees appreciate and handle change and see the value in it.

Being mindful is about becoming more conscious - and living more consciously - which is one of Amanda's core themes. Science shows us we are unconscious and most of us are running on habits and patterns of thinking from our past! We don't even know those patterns are subconsciously programming our present. The capacity to be truly present, in the now moment is a superpower in adapting to change!

The difference between a growth mindset and a fixed one is the difference between successful transitions and those that struggle, a joyful life and a stressed, unhappy one; between a joyful team and a dysfunctional one; a great culture or a toxic one.

Change is perpetual part of our landscape and learning the skills to navigate it and how to develop a growth mindset is possible and critical for future success.

Imagine a team deeply connected, where people genuinely care for and respect each other, go above and beyond, and love coming to work.

In this dynamic, edutaining session, Amanda Gore transforms perceptions, relationships, and workplace energy. It's about shifting mindsets to foster personal accountability, enthusiasm, and authentic engagement.

Selling with Heart: The Power of Influence and Connection
In a world where consumers are more disconnected and skeptical than ever, the ability to connect authentically, build trust, and create real influence is what separates top-performing sales professionals from the rest. Selling with Heart delivers simple skills that shift interactions from transactional sales to transformational relationships -- where customers don't just buy from you; they believe in you and are your advocates.

In this keynote, Amanda Gore unpacks the science and psychology of influence, revealing how empathy, emotional intelligence, and nonverbal communication can elevate your ability to engage, inspire, and drive results.

Power VS Influence: The Rise of Social Intelligence
In a world where feelings drive engagement, trust, and performance, social intelligence is redefining leadership, communication, and workplace success.

We live in a time of rapid change, workplace uncertainty, multigenerational teams, hybrid work, evolving technology, and rising burnout. Yet, many underestimate the greatest driver of engagement, sales, and performance -- how people feel at work, about you, and themselves. Beyond empathy and rapport, Social Intelligence (the power of influence vs. the old paradigm -- the influence of power) is a competitive edge, redefining how we connect, communicate, and lead. It transforms business, sales, and relationships, helping us navigate work, life, and change more effectively by understanding the emotions and motivations that truly drive human behavior.

Imagine standing in front of a group, presenting at a meeting, or engaging in a one-to-one meeting and feeling confident and calm. This workshop harnesses the magic of non-verbal communication -- and gives practical skills on how to inspire, impact and ignite enthusiasm, build rapport and have others follow you!

Public speaking is listed higher than death as a stressor for many people! Amanda has been an internationally acclaimed speaker for 30 years by continuously studying and upgrading her group dynamic skills! She is one of 4 international speakers inducted into the speaker hall of fame in the USA.

When we speak - there are 2 levels to consider. One is the content which must be relevant, appropriate and interesting. The other - the magic - is the process. The process is the way in which the messages are delivered and it is the "difference that makes the difference".

It's the magic that makes the content memorable; it creates the experience and the environment that allows people to make the changes they want to. It inspires. It entertains. It is the difference between a speech that has a brilliant impact and a mediocre, forgettable one. Or the difference between a stand out success meeting or interview and not getting the contract/job/sale.

Learn some of this magic and practical skills to increase your influence when you deliver an idea or present; to improve how you deal with challenges and overcome objections non verbally; and to increase your confidence so you actually can enjoy presenting interviewing or interacting - no matter what size group.

The Joy Formula 7: Ways to Build Resilience and Restore Work Life Balance. It is Possible!
Did you know that new research shows us what we believe about stress decides if our bodies react negatively or not. Our perceptions rule our reality and in part, create our environment. How we think about life balance also determines the physiological and psychological impact. The Joy Formula is a simple and easy way to review important aspects of our lives and become aware of imbalances that then allows us to make a plan to improve that balance - or at least, make us feel we have a sense of control over our lives!

"Busy-ness" is the new "disease" impacting almost everyone. Rushing and having the perception (and reality) of "too much to do" can destroy mental clarity and physical health. Constant social media comparisons and addictions don't help.

Understanding the 3 possible stress responses and channeling them in the right way changes everything! How we feel, how we respond to those events and how others in turn respond or react.

Amanda will discuss, The Life Pizza which is a simple and easy way to review important aspects of our lives and become aware of imbalances in what areas are most important to us and what areas we put most of our attention on - which then allows us to make a plan to improve that balance. It is also the way to introduce concept of resilience and teach them several "resilience strategies". This is an engaging experience that sends people out of the room laughing and determined to balance their "life pizza"!

The Neuroscience Of Leadership: What Leaders Should Know about Feelings and Performance
Neuroscience is the scientific study of the nervous system which doesn't sound relevant to leadership -- but as leaders and team members are humans, our nervous systems control pretty much everything in our bodies, so linking the two is important!

A leader's job is three-fold:
1. to create an environment in which people can be the best they can be (lined to the nervous system which affects performance, creativity, innovation and happiness)
2. to help people believe in themselves
3. to change people's behavior (and yes, neuroscience shows us it's possible)

We might think the nervous system is just the brain -- but the heart and stomach have millions of "brain" cells (neurons) in them -- so you "think" and feel with your heart and gut as well! All leadership -- or sales or customer service or team work or culture -- is based on feelings. How you feel about yourself -- and how you make others feel.

This session blends latest findings in neuroscience, epigenetics, emotional intelligence, positive psychology and some common sense in a really funny way -- we promise you will laugh! But wait, there's more, it is full of relevant information and skills that will help you be a better leader -- whether that role is part of your title or not!
