Speaking & Events

When I work with groups, from 25 to 2,500, from boardrooms to ballrooms, I take a stand for every person in that room. I demand they wake up to where they are playing small and selling out on themselves. Most importantly, I provoke new thinking and provide concrete steps to change what isn’t working. And always with a side of laughter. If it isn’t fun, why bother?

Participants leave knowing what is important to them, and they have an action plan. They know how to live a significant life in a superficial world. They become fully alive.

Femasculine: The Fluid Future of Leadership. It’s time to break down the behaviours and mindsets that define toxic, distorted and integrated masculine and feminine—and their ​impact​ ​and​ ​influence​ in the workplace.

Does your company culture producing more bullies than big, courageous ideas?

Is your team’s self-focused competition choking out creative collaboration?

Are you losing great people and don’t know why?

In companies + communities like these, there’s an imbalance at play…and it’s crushing the souls of the people in them. Not to mention, the company itself.

What’s going to restore balance and all that comes along with it—​including more engaged employees, higher creativity, and being top talent’s employer of choice​—is the pursuit of integration; gender integration in leadership.

Inside Out Significance. Living a significant life is an inside job. Being in the right relationship with yourself is how you will start.

No one else can tell you what is important to you, what difference you want to make in your life, or who you really are at your core. Seeing, loving and leveraging your uniqueness allows you to create the impact that only YOU can make and were born to contribute to the world.

In this session, using practical tools and her customized “Signý Process” you will discover your own path to a significant life and a better world.

Choose the Change. Look around, crises are everywhere: unexpected job loss, divorce, heart attack, cancer diagnosis – the sudden and unexpected things that “happen to us,” but the truth is they don’t happen “to” you, they happen “for” you.

They happen so you can make a change.

A crisis is a call to examine your life. To make a different choice and to get back to the life you were born to live.

Or – don’t wait for the crisis. Create one!

In this session, Signý will show you how to see a crisis coming and how to use it to your advantage.

Participation is Mandatory. We aren’t always doing everything it takes to have the life we say we want.

Life is not lived on the sidelines, watching, waiting and wondering why everyone else’s life seems more interesting than yours. If you want that life, then you need to create it. This session will show you how to identify your real priorities and then committing to an action plan.

The Vulnerable Leader. As a culture, and especially in the corporate culture, the pervading myth that power comes from strength alone still exists.

This is false. Being an authentic leader inspires greater respect and commitment from staff and teams than the outdated command and control model. In our highly competitive, rapidly changing world, the companies that will thrive are those that foster a culture of connection, not separation and control. In this session, Signý uses the science of vulnerability and risk taking to create results, along with exercises that increase your own authenticity quotient.

Getting Teams to GO. How do you take a team from vision to reality in a way that creates engagement?

Vision can be easy to create, especially for the people running a company or organization, but how do you get the team to buy into the vision and also get themselves and their staff into action toward that vision? In this session, Signý uncovers the common challenges companies face in creating buy-in to new ideas and direction, and how to get employees and teams engaged to support new initiatives.

When Good Enough is Not Enough: Cultivating Corporate Engagement. In a disengaged culture, over and over again we hear “Oh, that’s good enough.” But what if it’s not?

In this place of “good enough”, people aren’t committed to quality work, doing their best, or caring about the success of their company. When employees are disengaged they are apathetic, and this damages your bottom line. What is behind this culture of complacency, and more importantly, how do you turn it around?

In this session, Signý will show how micro-management is killing creativity and engagement, and as a result, killing teams and companies. She will demonstrate the management principles that create excellent managers and how to resolve the crisis before it starts.

Signý will show how managers can lead their company into the next paradigm, by moving from a culture of complacency to a culture of excellence.
