After surviving an Arctic Expedition in minus 43 degrees as part of an initiative to challenge how people think about diversity and inclusion I founded my own organization: Above & Beyond Resilience, As a trilingual Worldwide Keynote Speaker, I present in English, French & Italian on the topics of overcoming adversity which encompass areas such as: *Beyond Resilience, Turning Failures into Success, Growth Mindset & Conscious InclusionDelivering keynote speeches worldwide regularly and training top-level executives throughout the UK, Europe, USA, Asia & Middle East. I continue to equip the leadership teams both locally and cross-culturally, with practical solutions to the challenges leaders face in implementing change.I am driven to inspire business leaders and individuals to adopt the principle that “overcoming adversity” is a key focus for every company as it will benefit both their employees and business. Beyond ResilienceAfter life has beaten you up and broken you down into pieces, resilience is the gift that allows you to find the discipline to dig deeper and go beyond to use that inner strength we never knew we had until we have to use it. In this session, we will look at the life skills that can be learned and developed over time. Turning Failures into Success:Failure isn’t fatal, especially if we can view it as an opportunity to learn, progress, and develop. During this session, we will explore how to find the resources to achieve greatness in the capacity you are seeking to achieve success. Growth Mindset Fixed or Growth mindset? This interactive, challenging and transformational session is an insight into how and why you can’t afford to ignore Growth Mindset as this is an incredibly powerful tool for businesses.Conscious inclusionWe all have unconscious preferences, biases, or mental shortcuts, created in our unconscious brains that may lead to stereotyping, prejudicial or discriminatory behaviours in ways that are considered unfair even though we don’t mean to do it. It is simply the reality of how the human brain works.
