From Adobe and Southwest Airlines to the World Economic Forum and TED, Charlene has captivated audiences with her insights. Here’s what makes Charlene’s speeches unique – she provides trustworthy clarity.
In an age where complexity can overwhelm, Charlene stands out as a beacon of clarity.

Charlene leverages cutting-edge research and real-world case studies, drawing from her extensive industry experience. This unique ability enlightens and empowers her audience, ensuring they leave with a profound understanding of even the most challenging subjects.
Whether you’re ready or not, it is time to explore the transformative world of generative AI.

In this speech, Charlene will tailor her talking points to the audience’s needs. For a large conference, she may focus on crafting a future-ready strategy. Whereas for an in-company executive session, she may create a unified vision and roadmap to enhance organizational excellence.
“Disrupt or die” has been the rallying cry for decades, but what does it mean to be disruptive? To make it the center of your strategy? Many established companies set a goal to develop “disruptive” innovations, believing innovation will disrupt their market and drive growth. But that’s not how it works. Disruption doesn’t create growth. Growth creates disruption.
In this speech, Charlene acknowledges that transformations are never easy, and the unrelenting pace of technological change makes it doubly difficult. But there is hope and a way forward and it starts with reframing your strategy, leadership, and culture so that disruptive growth is at the top of your agenda.
New technologies pop up daily that allow us to connect and communicate with employees in real-time. Yet organizations are wired for a bygone era when there was the luxury of time and proximity. Most organizations measure employee engagement in yearly surveys, which are hardly the way to truly engage employees in the digital era.
In this speech, Charlene makes the case to develop a new mindset, one that’s centered on creating a long-term relationship with employees that melds holistically with creating great experiences for customers. From creating belonging among hybrid workers to the adoption of generative AI, we’ll dig deep into how technology is changing the nature of work and our relationship with employees.
Digital technologies have revolutionized relationships, and leadership is no exception. To be truly engaged, effective leaders must harness and master the power of digital communications and branding, especially with the challenges of leading a distributed team.
In this speech, Charlene explains that the key is understanding how your leadership style can be extended and scaled through digital techniques to achieve your most important goals. You’ll learn the art and science of how to listen, share, and engage with employees and customers in the digital era. We’ll also discuss common objections and concerns of leaders and how to address them.
What does it mean to be wise? Wisdom is not just a matter of intelligence, knowledge, or character. Smart people make foolish decisions all the time. But what if we could improve our decision-making even a little bit and consistently make wiser choices? Imagine the exponential impact if we could intentionally support the people in our organizations to be wiser, regardless of their experience levels.
In this speech, Charlene takes audiences on a journey of discovery toward experiencing the true power of wisdom. With the right tools and guidance, you can learn to make the right decisions to create a life and organization filled with meaning, purpose, and happiness.
Her ability to tailor her message, connect with diverse perspectives, and ignite a spark of innovation makes her an invaluable asset.
