The Belonging Equation

We all have one thing in common: the need to belong. The problem is, we get so caught up in emulating each other, that we forget the real power is embracing our authentic selves—our uniqueness. This may be counterintuitive. It’s also counterproductive: 80% of consumers want authenticity in a brand. They WANT our weird!

Embracing authenticity, connection and belonging is how we do better, culturally and financially – both for the human side and for

the bottom line.

Join author, speaker, and belonging expert Shelley Brown for a high-energy, interactive talk that will challenge your traditional notions of belonging and inspire a new perspective on fostering inclusion and connection in your environment.

You’ll be ready to:

  • Amp up the emphasis of belonging and connection by fostering a culture of safety and choice.

  • Strengthen your team with empathy, respect and value-aligned actions.

  • Uplevel employee authenticity and engagement.

  • Enhance your culture and leadership outcomes with greater wellbeing and productivity by embracing and nurturing the W.E.I.R.D. process: Welcoming, Engaging, Integration, Risk-Taking, and Delivering.

This keynote is for leaders at every level who are ready to step into their full potential and foster a culture where belonging is the ultimate "it" factor for success.
