Talk title: 'The Authentic Self'
All too often, people hide their true selves at work. This makes effective communication harder and erodes team cohesion. And when teams can’t work well together, output quality suffers, triggering a range of financial and reputational risks.
In this talk, Gina explains what it takes for people to feel safe communicating openly and contributing fully. Gina will show you how self-awareness is a superpower, and why being authentic never means ignoring others’ needs.
Ideal for leaders that want bolder communication and more ownership without burning people out. The audience gains an actionable understanding of authenticity at work, learning how to show up with more confidence, clarity, and respect.

Frequently asked questions
Do you tailor each talk to our audience?
Yes. Gina will work with you to understand your context, goals, and audience, then customize stories, examples, and emphasis so the session feels directly relevant.
What types of events does Gina speak at?
Gina speaks at leadership offsites, all-hands meetings, away days, conferences, and client events, both in-person and virtual. The content works best where culture, performance, or change is a core theme.
How long is a typical keynote?
Most keynotes run 45–60 minutes plus Q&A, but Gina can adapt the format for shorter “spotlight” sessions or extended deep dives, depending on your agenda and other speakers.
Is this suitable for global or hybrid teams?
Yes. Gina works globally and regularly speaks to distributed, cross-cultural audiences. Talks and activities are designed to be inclusive, accessible, and engaging for people attending from different locations and backgrounds.
What size audience works best?
Gina is equally comfortable energising rooms of 50 or auditoriums of hundreds, as well as large virtual audiences. The level of interaction is calibrated to the group size and format.
What outcomes can we expect for our audience?
Expect a shared language for psychological safety, fresh insight into authenticity at work, and ideas that ignite rewarding new behaviors.
What does Gina need from us beforehand?
You’ll have a short briefing call to align on outcomes, audience, and context. Closer to the event, the team will confirm logistics, AV requirements, and any internal examples or language to weave in.
Does Gina speak outside the UK?
Yes. Gina speaks for global organisations and travels internationally, subject to availability.
How far in advance should we book?
It’s best to enquire at least three months ahead, though the team can sometimes accommodate shorter timelines.
