REDEFINING STRENGTH IN LEADERSHIP

In this keynote, Shelley challenges the belief that women must be “hard” to succeed. She shows how leading with empathy, vulnerability, and authenticity creates lasting impact.

UNLEASH YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF & IGNITE TEAM SUCCESS

Shelley introduces the W.E.I.R.D. framework to show how belonging drives performance and culture. Audiences leave energized, connected, and ready to build workplaces where authenticity thrives.

“Shelley is an absolute rock star with unbelievable energy that radiates throughout her entire keynote! She captivated our audience of executive leaders with stories from her own fabulous journey through her career and made them really think about how they are showing up for their teams. She taught the audience that embracing everyone’s weird is just good business. People left inspired, excited and energized to get back to their teams to put some of her teachings into place.”
