A communications and performance expert, Amanda Gore uses the science of the heart, and the principles of emotional intelligence and neuroscience, to help business leaders achieve the results they need by getting people engaged in, enthusiastic about and aligned with corporate goals and vision.

For too long business has been paralysed by its over analysis of data. Gore will help you reconnect to the energy and emotional layers that really drive performance, innovation, relationships, engagement and creativity in your business and life.

Within a few short minutes, Gore breaks down the barriers that separate people, and from that moment forward it’s fun, invigorating, action packed ride towards self discovery and ultimately, real and lasting change. Through extremely energising presentations, enhanced by decades of scientific discovery and personal experience, Gore will entertain, facilitate changes behaviour, and move your audience to action. Her programs change the tone of your conference, whether by kick-starting it with laughter and connecting people by breaking down barriers, or sending your attendees off on an emotional and inspired high.

Gore believes success in business is always about feelings - the way we feel about something or someone determines how we behave - and whether we do business with them or not.

Our perceptions determine our feelings that directly affect our behaviour. Until we change our perceptions, we won’t change our behaviour. Gore changes perceptions. And feelings.

Author of five books and several DVD and audio training programs, Gore has a bachelor's degree in physiotherapy, a major in psychology, and expertise in neuroscience, ergonomics, group dynamics, stress management, neurolinguistics, and emotional intelligence.

2. WAKE UP to the Link Between Feelings and Success: How to Make Others Feel Good in a Heartbeat (Part 2)

-motivate and encourage others

-be authentic, humble and work collaboratively

-program themselves for excellence

-unlock the secrets and power of non-verbal communication

-build strong, lasting relationships

-have a positive spirit, not just a positive attitude
3. WAKE UP to the Spirit of Leadership: How to Engage People in a Heartbeat (Part 3)

If you want to change an organisation, you have to lead with a Change of Heart, a Change of Spirit. The spirit in which we do anything determines the outcome, whether positive or negative. People are no longer a company's most important asset: the spirit in which they do things is!

People with a positive spirit are inspired, motivated, excited about what they do, and create strong, lasting relationships. Once our hearts are engaged in what we are doing, and we see what we do as fulfilling work, not just as a job, then how we work is transformed. This purpose/spirit driven culture is the culture of the future. The new generations are demanding it, baby boomers are seeking it, and everyone wants it!

This keynote breaks down barriers so that learning, networking and connection continue not only during the meeting, but for the long term.

This session is full of techniques that will help leaders:

-bring out people's positive spirits

-inspire them to change or handle any business challenge creatively

-motivate them to be their best and create collaborative teams
4. WAKE UP to Profitable Joy!How to Bust stress, Eradicate Fear and Build Morale in a Heartbeat (Part 4)

Change and stress go hand in hand. Learning about how the brain actually can and does change (neuroplasticity); that adults learn more quickly than children; and that our brains need change to stay vibrant and alert transforms the way people perceive change. This means instead of being a stressor - change can be welcomed as an opportunity to grow and develop - and live, fully alive, longer!

This is a fun session designed to:

-address todays tough economic climate

-to put things in perspective

-have people refocus on what's important
5. WAKE UP to What Makes Relationships Work at Work: How to Bridge the Gender Gap in a Heartbeat (Part 5)

Yes, men and women are from different planets, but a slight shift in perception is all it takes to have them understanding, appreciating and admiring each other for unique talents. Relationships are like living breathing organisms and they need nurturing, watering and care. In this session find out what the other person wants and needs, and how to nurture. This session can be related to sales, customer service, negotiating, call centres, business relationships, or personal relationships and can focus on gender differences or not!
