Keynote Topics: Psychological Safety and DEIB Topics
Real. Relevant. Balanced: Impact That Lasts
Roy offers a selection of ten distinct keynotes. Each talk is focused on current workplace matters and provides actionable, real-world examples, cutting through the ambiguity of cultural change.
While perfectly aligned with International Days of Observance, such as International Women's Day or Pride Month, and often central to those initiatives, every talk is designed to stand alone and deliver strategic impact, moving teams from uncertain dialogue to confident, constructive action at any point in the year.
Psychological Safety Keynote
Unconscious Bias Keynote
This flagship keynote reveals why psychological safety is the foundation of high performance, innovation, and commercial success. Participants will be equipped with proven, practical strategies to reduce hidden costs and build a culture where teams feel safe to speak up, challenge, and collaborate.
This session helps teams uncover how unconscious bias subtly influences critical decisions and opportunities in the workplace. Attendees learn essential strategies for building self-awareness and interrupting bias in real-time, driving a sustained shift in collaboration and team behaviour.
Generation & Gen Z Keynote
LGBTIQA+, Pride & Allyship Keynotes
Gen Z is reshaping the workplace with new expectations around purpose, flexibility, and belonging. This talk explores what drives this generation, addresses inter-generational tensions, and equips managers to harness Gen Z’s unique energy and innovation.
Roy offers three distinct LGBTIQA+ sessions tailored directly to your organisation's inclusion maturity. We cover everything from foundational understanding and Pride basics, to advanced strategies for supporting queer families and embedding safety and belonging for all LGBTQIA+ employees.
Harassment and Bullying Keynote
Disability Inclusion Keynote
This session highlights the critical role of both men and women in accelerating gender equity at work, unpacking the key barriers women face and the high organisational costs of inequity. Roy provides clear frameworks and evidence-based strategies, focusing on the everyday actions that successfully shift cultures toward lasting fairness and opportunity.
International Women’s Day Keynote
International Men’s Day Keynote
Timed for International Men’s Day, this session explores how traditional expectations of masculinity impact men’s wellbeing, leadership, and professional relationships at work. It provides clear frameworks for men to rethink their role and contribute to healthier, more inclusive cultures through authenticity, vulnerability, and active allyship.
Is DEI Dead? Keynote
Belonging Keynote
Starting with this provocative question, Roy unpacks what Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion truly means in today's challenging climate. This session reframes DEI away from 'the right thing to do' towards measurable, high-performing impact, offering practical strategies to build stronger teams.
This session explores behavioural wellness, the intentional actions we must take to foster connection, kindness, and deep team belonging. Prioritising belonging makes teams significantly healthier, more engaged, and measurably more effective in their daily work.
Roy’s expertise cuts directly through the inherent nuance and grey areas of disability and neurodiversity to address the vital shift from basic accessibility to genuine belonging. This session provides clear frameworks on inclusive language and confidence, elucidating the path for leaders to build a culture where all employees feel valued and empowered.
Moving beyond simple answers, Roy cuts through the inherent nuance and grey areas of sexual harassment, harassment, and bullying to address its true organisational complexity. This session provides clear frameworks and evidence-based strategies to help participants confidently create safer workplaces.
