JOANNA'S 3 MOST REQUESTED KEYNOTES [Virtual Keynotes & In-Person Keynotes available]:

★ KEYNOTE #1: Unifying your team – positively navigating ‘Office Politics’ to improve productivity, decision making and employee retention.
‘Office Politics’ very often has negative connotations. However, where there are different people with varying interests, motivations and behaviours, political intelligence will always be necessary for individuals to carry out their roles effectively and progress their careers for personal and organisational benefit.

Research indicates that the ‘negative’ aspects of organisational politics adversely affect morale, productivity and profitability and they are a major cause of stress in the workplace; ultimately not being able to navigate ‘Office Politics’ is a barrier to career progression.

This session helps people understand what ‘Office Politics’ really is, how to navigate it, and how to make it a positive in an organisation.


★ KEYNOTE #2: Personal Impact: Why Personal Impact matters for organisational performance and career progression and what affects it.
How we relate to others at work, whether they are colleagues, clients, prospective clients or other business contacts, is key to individual career progression and business performance. People buy people, so considering what we are known for and how to be positively memorable are vital.

This session looks at the importance of professional relationships, the psychology of personal image and impact and the three personal impact ‘tools’ which affect what people say about us when we’re not in the room.

Practical tips will help individuals improve how they are perceived and positively affect their professional relationships.


★ KEYNOTE #3: Constructive Feedback: How to get feedback that is useful and to take it forward to have a positive impact.
Feedback happens in some form in most companies. However, the ability to get clear feedback often enough and utilise it, are key to people’s development and company performance.

This session looks at how to get feedback more frequently, what you need to get from it and how to take it forward. This is so it plays a key role in professional development, rather than just ‘ticking a box’.
