of genius
Every single person has a bright spark within them made up of their unique gifts, preferences and purpose. And every single person – even the most outwardly successful – has fears, doubts and self-sabotaging behaviours that get in the way of them shining their light.
It doesn’t make us bad, stupid or lazy. It makes us human. We are simply wired that way.
In this keynote, Gemma will share the five main ways we can stop dimming and start shining our light. Audiences will leave with eight practical, evidence-based and fun tools that have helped tens of thousands around the world to let go of impostor syndrome, stop self-sabotage in its tracks, and achieve a level of success, spark and courage they hadn’t thought possible.

performance
AND peace
Here is a typical day in the life of many:
Wake up, feel tired, drink coffee, look at calendar, feel even more tired, check emails, feel overwhelmed, drink more coffee, attend four back-to-back meetings, put out a fire, answer 3 of 78 new emails, deal with a people issue that could be an opportunity but just feels like another fire to put out, receive an email that means that tomorrow’s plan is out the window, feel exhausted, crave alcohol or sugar, attend a meeting, look at missed calls, roll eyes, play phone tag, eat sugar, feel overwhelmed, scroll phone, get home, drink wine, deal with loved ones, drink more wine, watch Netflix, go to bed, scroll phone, sleep fitfully, wake up, feel tired, check email … then rinse, lather & repeat the next day.
It’s time to get off the hamster wheel of stress and overwhelm. It’s time to stop feeling fried, burned out or done like a dinner. It’s time to amplify your peace, your energy levels and your results.
In this keynote, Dr Gemma Munro shares the three shifts and seven tools that have seen over 10,000 leaders move from frazzled and burned out to energised and inspired, while also igniting their performance, purpose and peace.

Keynote 3 – Lead Yourself Through Change
The science and art of rapid, easeful and – (yes, it’s possible) – joyful transformation.
- Manage yourself through change with enthusiasm and skill
- Lead through uncertainty with grace
- Learn to see change as an opportunity,
not a threat
At some point in your life, you’ve probably found yourself wanting to change but unable to make it last – it’s as if you have one foot on the accelerator and the other on the brake. Or perhaps you’re undergoing a transformation program at work, and as much as you’re told to get excited, all you can think is “I’m so done with change!”.
In this keynote, you’ll learn how to manage your very understandable tendencies to shy away from change, or to self-sabotage when faced with a need to transform. You’ll learn the seven tools Gemma has taught globally to help leaders navigate transformation with enthusiasm and ease, and to embrace change as an opportunity, not a threat.
Whether you want to transform your mindset, behaviours or results, or just navigate change and uncertainty with more skill, you’ll leave with the tools to manage change easily and well.
What audiences say about this keynote:
“Dr Gemma motivated me to make the brave choices to take positive steps in my life, as I know she did for all those who attended. It was JUST what I needed to hear to push through the fear and discomfort of change. Gemma had a profound impact. She shone, and inspired others to do the same.” – Fujitsu
(Gemma also offers the topic Lead Yourself and Others Through Change as a 1.5-2.5 hour masterclass).
