Powerful presentations
Winitha works with event organisers or corporates to deliver presentations on inclusion, leadership and business.
The business case for diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is clear, however, to action it in a thoughtful and sensitive way is often confusing, overwhelming, and frustrating for businesses and leaders looking to do this effectively.
Through her presentations, Winitha offers an insightful, practical, and solutions-oriented approach to how you can make inclusion, empathy, and consciousness part of your brand’s identity, culture and consumer experience.
Keynotes
Psychological Safety
Psychosocial hazards, respect at work, speak up cultures and psychological safety: The role and responsibility of leaders, people managers and people.
Research shows time and time again that psychological safety is the biggest driver of high-performing teams and individuals and the foundation, the absolute bedrock of inclusive teams and cultures. It's also the number one driver to produce creativity and innovation that stands out from the crowded marketplace.
In this keynote, we unpack what it is, what it isn't, what microaggressions are and how they differ from person to person and impacts a teams performance. We also get clear on what psychological safety looks like in the workplace and amongst teams, and together we unpack basic steps to create it for yourself and others on a daily basis consistently as we journey towards inclusion in our business. Importantly, we will also look at how psychological safety links to respect at work, psychosocial hazards and speak up cultures. This is an interactive keynote and there will be time at the end of the keynote for Q&A.
