Uncertain times

The modern workplace is tough. Change comes frequently, restructures are commonplace, team numbers get smaller and all the while the workload increases.

Graduates, managers and leaders alike are expected to feel empowered and capable – certain that they can achieve challenging targets at a time when the ground is moving beneath their feet, and the road ahead is uncertain.

I can help.

“Anna’s inspiring stories made the audience think differently about their own personal and professional challenges – something very well suited with the current challenges and opportunities facing our industry.”

High Energy Talks

I specialise in high energy talks – delivered with raw honesty, humour and passion.

Topics covered include:

  •   Confidence and self-belief
  •   Growth mindset and the courage to begin
  •   Imposter syndrome and fear of failure
  •   Coping with change and uncertainty
  •   Managing energy and maintaining mental health under pressure
  •   Resilience, determination and perseverance

Anna’s ability to instil a sense of self-belief in those watching her speak is second to none. Despite her own astounding achievements – she very much made the talk at our team away day about us instead. Honest, relatable and wonderfully down to earth.”

A Little More Detail

My talks are life lessons from the road, with a theatrical twist.

From sitting on an International Regatta start line in Great Britain colours, to finding myself deep in the New Zealand bush alone and injured – I’ve learnt a great deal about personal limits in the past 15 years, and I’m still learning.

Even the hardiest days on an adventure come down to mindset. To the ability to choose how to approach the challenges that lie ahead, and how to cope when things go belly up, which is often.

Anna added so much to our sales conference. Her impact extended far beyond the time on stage as she took the time to speak individually with the delegates afterwards, and join us for dinner too. It was clear to everyone that she genuinely cared about helping others to think differently, and do more.”

Talk Impact

Through the stories I share on the stage, my aim is to help the audience do three things:

1

Realise that our capabilities are governed only by the mental limits we impose upon on ourselves.

2

Dispense with a fear of what might happen if you and fail and focus instead on finding the courage to simply begin.

3

View life and the choices we make through a fresh ‘lens’ – question whether to take the safe, easy comfortable route or opt for greater risks, in favour of greater rewards.

At an individual level, working through these three areas will lead to increases in confidence, creativity, and a reduction in failure related anxiety.

At an organisational level this means fostering an innovative, dynamic culture, where employees aren’t afraid to take risks, and are motivated to embrace change.
