Passionately believing that no one should go home from work worse than when they arrived, Emma uses her natural abilities to help people do the things they think are impossible, in an attempt to shift the leadership paradigm for the good of us all.
Known for her ability to tackle serious subjects in a humorous, entertaining and relatable way, Emma encourages her audiences to interact with their work differently, strongly advocating that HR is the answer to everything. Being a Human. Resourced. that is.
Talking points and audiences
Emma regularly speaks about redefining our relationship with work by being intentional in our careers and advocating for ourselves. She shares her personal experiences of being bullied, the extreme lengths she considered going to in order to get head space from work, and the impact of suppressing her own human experience at work to support others with theirs.
With practical tips on setting and maintaining boundaries, building confidence, befriending our inner critic, banishing imposter syndrome and above all else being brave in the pursuit of what you really want, Emma is helping leaders have their maximum impact by recognising impact isn’t possible without vulnerability. And it’s this human, authentic connection that creates a better experience at work for everyone.
