Amanda Gore Speaking Topics

  • From Burnout To Joy: How to Re-Inspire, Re-Focus and Re-Store meaning

    The last few years has taken its toll on everyone! Bathed in uncertainty about EVERYTHING, our physical, mental, emotion and spiritual wellbeing has been seriously impacted. Many of us are living with fear, unmotivated, anxious, stressed and feeling burnt out.   This keynote or training is geared around the new skills required to rise up out of the exhaustion and fear and rediscover the joy of living. Simple, easy to do activities and ways to change our mindsets and perceptions will help your team build resilience and leave them with an inner compass! This inner compass will be the way people can navigate their way back to feeling energised and enthusiastic about life again.

    Our inner compass can help us:

    • Re-calibrate relationships and re-imagine joy
    • Re-energise and re-align your team
    • Re-inspire, re-focus and re-store meaning
    • Re-ignite confidence and enthusiasm
    • Reconnect hearts • virtually and physically
    • Stay sane and even thrive while navigating an uncertain future

    We have never experienced a time like this before. Mental health issues are skyrocketing. Fear and uncertainty are undermining people's health, work and relationships • We are re-examining what JOY (and living) actually looks and feels like • and what really matters to us.

    Now, more than ever, we need to re-consider everything that is going on and educate people about different perspectives and give them the skills to deal with the 'uncertain and constantly changing new normal'. And also to give them a good laugh! Which in itself changes physiology.

    To keep teams connected, motivated and maintaining a sense of purpose and belonging is challenging in good times when everyone is physically present. 

    It's a whole new world working these days, returning to work, hybrid offices, work life balance, burnout, juggling children and working from home and being disconnected physically from others. 

    I designed this material to address all the above issues and re-store some sense of control in people no matter where they are. And to establish the deep connections people are craving.

    This whole experience can be seen as a time of devastation and depression • or it can be seen as an opportunity to do many things that can make positive changes in our lives, and the choice is ours. This keynote gives you the tools and mindset to choose wisely.

    Other Aspects Amanda Can Incorporate…

    • Re-activate our full human potential and our humanity
    • To fill us with life force
    • To fully engage in life and living
    • To re-create the life we really want
    • To re-engage us with our passion, meaning and purpose at work
    • The choice is ours. This keynote gives you the tools and mindset to choose wisely

  • The Real AI: Activating Authentic Intelligence for Real Success

    People have not fundamentally changed for a thousand years but science has. The 'operating system' of a human is not binary based! It's more like quantum computing and runs on feelings. Learn new, neuroscience based practical skills and strategies to re-engage your sales force in a way that leaves everyone feeling recharged and resilient • and find out what the REAL AI is!

    Using Amanda's signature experience creating, humor loaded yet fact filled style, people will walk away thinking differently about sales and how they interact with others.

    Transforming sales results begins with transforming our thinking, perceptions, actions and choices. Knowing precise ways to interact with others to prove that we are competent, trustworthy and safe (a feeling) is required for top performance.

    Learn new, science-based ways to:

    • Be resilient and keep yourself motivated and enthusiastic
    • Develop a modern sales mindset and understand the buyer mindset
    • Change the perception of customers
    • Listen properly (hardly anyone does)
    • Connect non verbally (instantly)
    • Establish lifelong relationships (in a short time) that create advocates not just customers
    • And learn the REAL nature of leadership

  • Joyonomics: Elevating Workplace Joy: The Key to Exceptional Performance

    Research shows that joy at work can boost sales by 37%, increase productivity by 31%, reduce errors by 18%, and enhance promotion chances by 40%. Surprisingly, 75% of employees identify their boss as the most stressful part of their job, yet enjoying work is the top factor for both job and life satisfaction.

    Companies that prioritize employee happiness and well-being consistently outperform the S&P 500. The impact of joy in the workplace is undeniable!

    This session is designed for team leaders and individuals looking to lead effectively in their own lives. Now, more than ever, we must reshape our perspectives and equip ourselves with the skills to navigate the ever-changing "new normal." Maintaining team cohesion, motivation, and a sense of purpose is challenging, especially in a world dominated by remote work, burnout, childcare concerns, and physical disconnection. We’re working longer hours, often from home, thinking it’s better, yet missing out on the real human connections that are vital for our well-being.

    This keynote is designed to offer strategies for creating a truly engaged and enthusiastic team, fostering meaningful connections, and enhancing overall well-being.

    A leader’s role is threefold:

    Instill Self-Belief: Help individuals believe in themselves, as self-belief is a stronger predictor of success than any skill level.

    Foster a Joyful Environment: Create a supportive environment where people can thrive, free from fear and filled with joy.

    Facilitate Positive Behavioral Change: Effect meaningful behavioral changes swiftly and effectively, using the right approaches.

    Learn how to cultivate a joyful and productive workplace that not only meets but exceeds expectations. When we transform our work environments, we transform our lives!

  • The Power of Joy: Staying Sane in a Crazy World

    Your brain can be rewired for joy. This session teaches you how. It includes how to stop stress killing you; how to be resilient; how to be your best version; how to re• focus on what matters and take responsibility for your choices and behaviour.

    Everything in business is about feelings. Trust, empathy, confidence, cooperation, collaboration, leadership, responses to change • these are just some of the elements (feelings) that create a great culture and team.

    This keynote is aimed at helping people feel good about themselves • which changes the way they interact with everyone else • colleagues, clients and family.

    Amanda presents profound concepts, in an entertaining way that:

    • Changes people's perceptions of themselves and others
    • Engages and energizes
    • Gives them specific strategies to bust stress, lead more effectively, fear less, deal with change and collaborate effectively.

    Amanda will cover the latest new sciences of stress, epigenetics, emotional intelligence and neuroscience • which will not only show you how to reduce the impact of stress, but also how to change your reactions to it permanently.

    Did you know that what people believe about stress or stressful situations is the 15th biggest killer of humans in the USA? But it is potentially a source of great resilience, productivity, engagement and courage when handled correctly. It's time to get real about what is really causing our stress.

  • Neuroscience of Sales: How to Develop a Buyers Mindset

    People have not fundamentally changed for a thousand years but science has. The 'operating system' of a human is not binary based! It's more like quantum computing and runs on feelings. Learn new, neuroscience based practical skills and strategies to re• engage your sales force in a way that leaves everyone feeling recharged and resilient.

    Using Amanda's signature experience creating, humor loaded yet fact filled style, people will walk away thinking differently about sales and how they interact with others.

    Transforming sales results begins with transforming our thinking, perceptions, actions and choices. Knowing precise ways to interact with others to prove that we are competent, trustworthy and safe (a feeling) is required for top performance.

    Learn new, science• based ways to:

    • Be resilient and keep yourself motivated and enthusiastic
    • Develop a modern sales mindset
    • See customers as partners in business
    • Listen properly (hardly anyone does)
    • Connect non verbally (instantly)
    • Establish life long relationships (in a short time) that create advocates not just customers

  • Joyful Leadership & The Joyful Team: How a Growth Mindset, Engages, Motivates and Changes Cultures

    Did you know that science shows us 95• 99% of the time we are literally UN• conscious of our thinking and beliefs? Only 5% of the time are we present and really aware of what is going on inside us! The stories we tell ourselves i.e. What we are thinking literally creates our life, performance and relationships. This session teaches how to change your thinking/story • which changes the life you create • at work and home.

    The major disruptor to collaborative teams, joy filled workplaces and high• performance sales and service is ‘stinking thinkin’ as Zig Ziglar used to say.

    One energy sucker will bring the whole group down.

    Beliefs, the stories we tell themselves about ourselves, our colleagues, customers, bosses and the company determine our feelings and behaviour. Our beliefs control our nonverbal communication which affect all relationships. Our beliefs determine the culture we create around us and the unconscious choices we are making every moment.

    It's time to remember we control our thinking and we choose to make conscious choices or not.

    This session can change perceptions, relationships, personal accountability, enthusiasm, engagement, energy and culture. But wait • there’ s more! It can also help people adopt a more positive approach to change. While they laugh.
