Keynotes and Workshops

Inspiration is great—but transformation is better. Our keynotes and workshops are designed to be practical, engaging, and deeply human. We don’t just talk about connection—we teach people how to build it, in real time. With a focus on accessibility, authenticity, and interaction, our sessions help everyone in the room feel seen, included, and ready to connect—with others and themselves.

We teach networking that actually works.

Whether it’s a 20-minute keynote or a full-day workshop, our sessions are built to shift mindsets and spark real change. We show people how to connect without pitch slaps, awkward small talk, or performative networking. It’s practical, "neuroinclusive", and refreshingly real.

Who is it for

Organisers who want speakers that deliver more than a motivational moment—sessions that make a real difference in how people show up, engage, and build community.

Why you need it

Most people aren’t taught how to network—they’re told to “put themselves out there” and hope for the best. We change that. Our keynotes and workshops equip attendees with the tools, confidence, and awareness to connect with intention—no matter their background, comfort level, or neurotype.

How it works?

Give your audience more than inspiration—give them tools they’ll actually use. Our keynotes and workshops are designed to spark connection, build confidence, and leave a lasting impact—without adding work to your plate.

01

Custom-fit content.

We tailor the session to your audience—whether they’re students, execs, sponsors, sales teams, or first-time attendees. Every talk is grounded in practical tools, not generic advice.

02

Interactive delivery.

We bring the room to life. Expect storytelling, group prompts, gentle humour, and a few unexpected moments that spark real reflection and connection.

03

Real takeaways.

Participants walk away with practical tools and language they can use immediately—plus the confidence to network without faking it. Because good connections shouldn’t feel like a performance.

Success stories

At IMEX, we ran two packed workshops on “Becoming Wing People,” giving attendees practical tools to connect with confidence. With Wing People embedded on-site, connection was everywhere. Attendees put their learnings into action immediately—leaving with fresh confidence, new connections, and a whole new approach to networking.
