Transform how people feel, engage and perform.
Keynotes & Workshops
Every organization runs on something that never shows up in the budget: how people feel.
Amanda Gore is a Hall of Fame keynote speaker and motivational speaker who turns that feeling into results. She uses humor, behavioral science and stories people retell for years to change how a room feels. Then she hands everyone practical tools they can use straight away.
Start with the challenge you’re facing. Each one has a keynote to inspire the whole room and a workshop to build the skills.
Amanda has spent 30+ years studying what drives people at work, from neuroscience and emotional intelligence to group dynamics. Her method, Amanda Gore JQ®, gives people, from leaders to front-line teams, simple ways to build trust and psychological safety, and to keep performing under pressure.
It pays. Engaged teams deliver 23% higher profitability and up to 51% lower turnover (Gallup). Positive brains are 31% more productive and 37% better at sales (Shawn Achor). Joy turns out to be very good for business.
Amanda has no set speeches. Every keynote is built around your people, your pressures and the result you want, and it’s interactive from the first minute.
Pure passion! Talk about an individual who gets her audience involved from the moment she arrives on stage! We have had her at our organization’s convention two times now and people are still talking about her! This firecracker has the unique ability to transfer passion to her audience and touches them at their core.
For leaders who want people to trust them, follow them and stay.
