The Cadence Approach Wellbeing Keynote
The pace of work has never been faster. Leaders and teams are expected to deliver high performance every day, often with little time to pause or reset. The result? Rising stress levels, disengagement and a workforce that feels constantly under pressure.
Regardless of your industry, business can feel like an endurance sport with relentless sprints. So many of us expect to perform at the highest levels all year round, but over the medium to long term this simply isn’t sustainable. Eventually performance drops, creativity suffers and resilience is eroded. The irony is that the harder we push, often the less effective we become.
The Cadence Approach is a proven method inspired by elite athletes who know how to sustain high performance. By learning to predict the big moments, prepare with intention, perform at their best and recover with purpose, your people build the resilience and adaptability needed to thrive in today’s fast-paced environment. Business is more predictable than we think, and this keynote will encourage your people to see themselves as workplace athletes and to be fit for the rigours of working life.
BOND:
Building Trust, Community and Connection
in the Age of AI
In a world of hybrid work, AI and constant digital noise, people are feeling more disconnected than ever. Trust is fragile, belonging is fading, and many teams are struggling to maintain the deep relationships that drive performance.
This disconnection comes at a cost. Isolagenic (isola = isolation, genic = causing) cultures, those that unintentionally promote isolation, can have the unwanted effect of reducing engagement, collaboration, morale and negatively impact the culture of the company.
Belonging starts when people show up authentically and create space for others to do the same. Openness follows — staying curious, sharing ideas and listening deeply. From there, we nurture connection through the small, consistent acts that strengthen bonds, and we deepen it by moving beyond surface-level interactions to build real trust. The result is a culture where people feel valued, connected and motivated to perform at their best.
SUSTAIN: The Personal Sustainability Keynote
The World Economic Forum highlights resilience, adaptability and flexibility as the critical skills for the decade ahead. Yet in most workplaces, relentless pressure and constant change are draining energy, mood and motivation. Leaders and teams know they need to look after themselves, but the paradox is that knowing what to do is not the same as doing it.
This gap between intention and action leaves people caught in survival mode. Burnout rises, creativity falls, and talented individuals struggle to adapt when they’re needed most. The ultimate risk? A culture that values short-term performance at the cost of long-term sustainability.
The SUSTAIN Framework takes a deeper dive into what creates lasting resilience. It’s a novel approach that focuses on building boundaries through personal Values, taking ownership of desired behaviours by having a clear sense of Identity, a solid and supportive Community, and Resources, including agency. The outcome is not just healthier individuals, but stronger, more adaptable organisations ready to face the future.
The keynotes are ideal for
Opening and closing keynotes, sales conferences, senior leadership meetings, annual company meetings. These wellbeing keynotes works best as an in-person talk but is also delivered virtually. As a seasoned wellbeing speaker Leanne has equal experience in doing both and is very comfortable with either format.
