Catherine Rymsha Speaking Topics

The Spark Effect: Reigniting Joy, Purpose, and Possibility in Leadership

Leadership can sometimes feel like a checklist—but the most inspiring leaders bring something more: spark. This uplifting, interactive keynote is all about tapping back into what lights you up as a leader and helping others do the same. Through reflection prompts, shared stories, and thought-provoking moments of connection, you’ll explore how joy, purpose, and personal energy are not nice-to-haves, but essential leadership tools. Whether you’re navigating change, leading teams, or finding your next gear, this session helps you rediscover what makes you magnetic, grounded, and ready to lead with heart.
Just Listen: The Most Underrated (and Powerful) Leadership Skill

In a world of noise, the leaders who stand out are the ones who know how to truly listen. Based on the TEDx talk "Want to Become a Better Leader? Just Listen" this keynote unpacks why listening is not a soft skill—it’s a power skill. Through real-world insights and interactive moments, this session explores how listening builds trust, uncovers insight, and drives better decisions across teams and organizations. Attendees will leave with a practical framework to level up their listening, shift how they lead, and create space for the voices that matter most.

Decision-Based Leadership: Leading Yourself Before You Lead Others

Great leadership starts with one thing: making sound, intentional decisions. This keynote is designed to help leaders at any level build confidence by learning how to lead themselves first. We’ll explore decision-making frameworks that blend instinct, data, and emotional intelligence. Through scenario-based activities, “gut-check” role plays, and a personal values mapping exercise, participants will uncover how to make faster, better decisions—especially in uncertain or high-pressure environments. The result? Stronger self-leadership, better outcomes, and a foundation for leading others with clarity and conviction.

Draw to Lead: Unlocking Leadership and Team Potential Through Visual Thinking

In a world overloaded with information, sometimes the most powerful way to lead is to simply draw it out. This highly interactive session explores how visual thinking can spark clarity, inspire collaboration, and help leaders and teams unlock new opportunities. You’ll learn how to use drawing—not artistic skill, but purposeful sketching—as a strategic leadership tool. Through hands-on sketching exercises, visual problem-solving challenges, and a “draw your leadership story” activity, participants will walk away with a new way to communicate ideas, align teams, and think more creatively in real time. This can be either a team building session, or keynote.

From Marketing to Meaning: Navigating Change, Transferring Skills, and Leading Your Unique Path

Career paths aren’t always straight—and sometimes the best leaders are the ones who’ve made bold, unexpected turns. In this reflective and energizing keynote, we explore what it really means to grow through change. From marketer to leadership developer, author to academic (and everything in between), this session draws from lived experience to show how your skills and passions can evolve into something bigger than a title. Through interactive storytelling, skill-mapping exercises, and guided reflection, you’ll learn how to identify your transferable strengths, embrace reinvention, and lead with a sense of personal mission—wherever your path takes you next.

Feedback Reimagined: Turning Reflection into a Strategic Leadership Advantage

Feedback doesn’t have to be awkward, one-sided, or something people dread. In this energizing session, we flip the script and turn feedback into a powerful leadership tool that fuels trust, growth, and innovation. Participants will explore how to create a culture where feedback is ongoing, constructive, and even energizing. Through real-time peer feedback exercises, reframing challenges, and designing a personalized “feedback ecosystem,” leaders will learn to use feedback not just for correction, but for connection and continuous evolution. It’s time to stop fearing feedback—and start leading with it.
