Communication is the key to action. Almost everything we do requires some form of communication. In a professional position, being an excellent communicator means you are able to get more done and achieve outcomes. In life more generally, being able to communicate well assists with being able to progress further; getting the basic things that you need.
Where you are not understood or where there is a gap between what you are intending to say and how it is received, there can be a significant power imbalance. There is nothing worse than the feeling like you are not understood. Particularly for those people who use technical language in our jobs, we do not want what we communicate to be “gobbledygook.” You need to cut through the bull to be heard and recognised.
This keynote presentation aims to look at our communications – through verbal and written communication – and how it can be improved. This is a practical and fun session filled with stories, innovative additions, and key learnings. The session will provide skills and techniques for how we can convert our words into an innovative and creative format that can be understood by your intended audience. This keynote will provide the audience with the means to be considered trusted through their words and their communications and empowering them to make change and make an impact.
"Collaboration" is one of those corporate buzzwords that isn't well understood. Often, we like the idea of working together but in reality, it may simply end up being cc'ing someone into an email and considering that to be collaborative.
In order to demonstrate your value, your contribution to customers, the organisational strategy, your group assignment (or any endeavor), and your impact, it is critical to work with others to get things done. When feeling disconnected to what you're doing, working with others in a collective way can assist with levels of engagement and bringing joy back to what you're doing.
This presentation looks at practical steps to create a collaborative environment. Through real-life examples and stories on successful ways to create collaborative environments. Real collaboration allows your voice to be heard, your input to be recognised and your ability to cut through and make a real difference.
The presentation looks at how some simple changes to approach can lead to better and stronger working relationships based on trust and regular communication can lead to improved results and work getting done faster and better than ever before.
How our words say more than we think
A presentation where our way of communicating is analyzed and our daily practices are put under the microscope. The idea was originally developed through the TED Masterclass program.
How 'Karen' has made us stop before we talk
2020 saw 'Karen' rise like no other figure in our society. The Karen example is used as a template of what not to be. This talk focuses on how our words can have a real impact on those around us and the influence our communication can made.
How to be a kickass negotiator: Turning conflict into a conversation
Negotiation is a skill we use every day - sometimes without even realising it. Negotiation in its simplest form is a conversation. This presentation talks through some of the key techniques one can use through our communication, both verbally and through our body language to put your best foot forward for success.

TED Masterclass video
"I recently had the pleasure of hearing Theo speak. Given the year that was, the conference was entirely online. However, that did not sway Theo, he was engaging, inspiring, and innovative in his presentations. The range of topics he presented demonstrated his wealth of experience, dedication, and ability to juggle many roles. Despite not being able to see the audience, Theo still managed to keep us all engaged as evidence in the live chat forums in each session. It was particularly inspiring to see Theo achieve great success but also volunteer his time and effort to help others do so too. Definitely look forward to hearing him present again."
