I am a Doctoral Researcher at Warwick Business School, based in the United Kingdom, specialising in helping organisations strengthen cyber risk management and data governance. I work at the intersection of research and real-world practice to turn complex risk and compliance challenges into clear, actionable decisions. My approach combines rigorous analysis, business-focused frameworks, and practical guidance to help leadership teams understand where cyber and data risks originate, how they propagate, and what controls actually reduce exposure. I partner with organisations to build governance that scales, improve accountability, and support confident digital operations.

Therapist, Executive Leadership Coach, Researcher, Speaker, Author
Baltimore, Maryland
I am Dr. Abby Hasberry, LMFT, LCMFT, BCC, a keynote speaker, author, therapist, executive coach, and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of narrative, justice, and transformation. I am also an adoptee, a birth mother, and a biological family reunion participant. That lived experience is not background. It is the foundation of everything I bring to the stage. My research focuses on birth mother grooming, a framework I developed to explain the layered experience of being simultaneously an adoptee and a mother who has relinquished a child. My clinical and coaching framework, the R3 Framework (Reflect, Release, Reinvent), gives individuals and organizations a structured path through complex relationships and toward sustainable change. I am the author of Adopting Privilege: A Memoir of Reinventing My Adoptee Narrative and the creator of Adoption Narrative Shift: Nothing About Us Without Us, an 11-episode documentary series in active development centering adoptees, birth parents, and biological family members as the primary authorities on their own stories. I hold five degrees, including a Ph.D. in Curriculum and Instruction, and bring decades of experience across education, clinical practice, organizational consulting, and documentary filmmaking. I serve on the boards of Adoption Mosaic and Adoption Knowledge Affiliates. I do not just study this work. I live it.

Keynote Speaker | Executive & Leadership Coach | XR Program Designer & Facilitator
Australia
Most organisations don't have a performance problem. They have a self-understanding problem and it shows up most visibly under pressure. Kelly Magowan works at the intersection of behavioural science, immersive experience design and leadership development to help organisations close that gap. Her signature program, The Level Up Program™, combines extended reality (XR) with MBTI personality insight to make invisible team dynamics visible and fast. Teams don't just learn about communication. They experience, in real time, how their assumptions, decision-making and collaboration patterns shift under pressure. With over 20 years across executive coaching, HR and organisational development including roles at Ernst & Young, General Electric, and as an Executive Coach at Melbourne Business School — Kelly brings both strategic depth and practical application. She is the founder of Diversitas Consulting and has worked with organisations including Melbourne University, Coles, Cell Therapies, Austin Health, Planet Innovation, Department of Defence, and Murdoch Children's Research Institute. Her keynotes and workshops are designed not to inspire and leave they are designed to shift behaviour. Audiences leave with shared language, practical tools, and a different understanding of themselves and each other that they can use the next day

Using storytelling grounded in historical research, I translate the medieval past into practical, joyful lessons that can make our modern lives better, helping us to think more clearly, live with more purpose, and handle life’s challenges with steadier hearts. As a writer, podcaster, TEDx speaker, and former college professor, I've been making medieval history fun, entertaining, and accessible for millions of people across the globe for the past two decades. My books, articles, videos, and weekly podcasts have been used as resources in schools and universities from Oxford to Harvard and everywhere in between, making me one of the most recognized voices in Medieval Studies in the world. My mission is not just to share a love of one of the most fascinating eras in history, but to to explore our common humanity across time, in all its messy, complex beauty. When I'm not reading, writing, or recording, you can find me drinking tea, doing Krav Maga, or sometimes building a backyard trebuchet.

I help organisations and emerging leaders in the United Kingdom who are stuck with low confidence, unclear direction, and cultures that feel "busy" but not high-performing. When people do not feel heard or do not understand the strategy, performance dips, morale drops, and good talent starts looking elsewhere. As a Speaker | Coach, I bring straight-talking, experience-led leadership development that targets the real barriers to alignment and follow-through, not just symptoms. Through Leadership Hacks, I deliver keynote talks, coaching, and practical leadership development, including my Four Suits Method for communicating strategy and change. My approach is built to be used immediately, turning complex plans into clear messages that teams can act on. The result is leaders who communicate with clarity, lead with confidence, and create positive, accountable cultures where people genuinely buy into the plan, improving engagement, decision-making, and delivery.

Conflict ROI Architect: Navigating Dark Personalities, Intersectionality, and the Future of Human Work
Portland, Oregon
Conflict isn't just a communication breakdown; it’s a neural one. Most leaders treat conflict as an inevitable cost of doing business, but in reality, it’s a massive leak in your productivity. On average, every employee loses 2.8 hours per week navigating workplace friction. For a mid-sized team, that is hundreds of hours of paid time annually drained by everything from everyday misunderstandings and toxic personalities to the complexities of disability accommodations and the stress of adopting new technology. For owners and HR directors, that is a staggering amount of lost capital and human potential. As a 3x TEDx speaker and conflict resolution architect, I show organizations how to reclaim that time. My work is built on a proprietary neural framework: Processing (Neural) + Interpretation (Conflict) + Behavior (Resolution) By training teams to understand that processing is physiological and interpretation is where conflict takes hold, I provide a clear path to behavioral resolution that scales. Beyond standard skills training, I specialize in high-stakes intersections: from disability belonging and trauma-informed leadership to my specialized series on skillful termination and more. Backed by a track record of developing trainings that help businesses reduce costs and improve ROI, including speaking engagements at SHRM and SIOP, I am currently bridging the gap between human psychology and innovation. I am leading a team to develop an AI framework designed to dismantle systems of oppression and boost human effectiveness. My goal is simple: I transform those 2.8 hours of lost time and the stress it brings into skillful interactions that reduce costs, protect your culture, and produce an ROI that makes sense.

AI Transformation & Governance Speaker | Founder - Afrodeities Institute
United Kingdom

Chinenye Egbuna Ikwuemesi is a business and technology transformation professional with more than 25 years of experience working across data, analytics and enterprise systems in complex organisations. Alongside her work in technology and organisational change, she has spent many years researching African civilisational knowledge systems and the governance principles embedded in them. Her work explores how ideas such as Ma’at, Ifá and Ubuntu can inform modern discussions about leadership, institutional design and ethical decision-making in an AI-driven world. Chinenye is the founder of the Afrodeities Institute, an independent research initiative examining African mythology, history and knowledge systems as forms of civilisational infrastructure. Her speaking and writing connect two fields that are rarely brought together: the realities of modern technological transformation and the long historical traditions that societies have used to organise power, responsibility and collective decision-making. Drawing on both corporate experience and historical research, she explores how institutions can think more deeply about governance, risk and consequence as artificial intelligence becomes embedded in organisational systems. Chinenye speaks on topics including AI governance, organisational transformation, African knowledge systems and the relationship between history, power and modern institutions. She can help CHROs, boards, and transformation leaders encode intelligence before layering AI, using decision systems that were designed to survive disruption, not just manage it.

My name is Kailey Peckford (she/her) and I am a queer, white settler raised in amiskwaciwâskahikan (ᐊᒥᐢᑲᐧᒋᐋᐧᐢᑲᐦᐃᑲᐣ), Treaty 6 territory, colonially known as Edmonton, Alberta. After working in sexual violence prevention across several Albertan universities, I noticed a critical gap: accessible, high-quality education for the broader community—especially workplaces—was largely missing. Much of the available sexual harassment training is superficial, designed to meet compliance requirements rather than to educate meaningfully. These programs often lack input from subject matter experts and ignore best practices in adult learning. Meanwhile, sexual assault centres offer excellent, research-informed training but are typically underfunded and overextended. To bridge this gap, I founded For Better Consent Education in 2025. For Better's mission is to connect workplaces and organizations with evidence-based, engaging training on sexual violence prevention, including sex education as a core component of primary prevention. With a background in sociology and research focused on public drinking establishments, I bring both subject-matter expertise and real-world insight to the development of For Better's workshops. Drawing on years of facilitation and public speaking experience, I ensure each session is interactive, practical, and grounded in best practices for adult education.
