Kemi’s Women and their Worth Keynote was motivating, empowering, & enlightening.
By generously sharing her personal experiences and coaching expertise, Kemi formed a powerful connection with our audience, providing important learnings and ideas for growth. We’ll certainly be looking at ways to continue working with Kemi to provide action-oriented motivation and coaching to the women of Foxtel.

“Kemi was a guest speaker for an inspiring leadership session at Atlassian focused on self-leadership and owning your own story. The audience was all moved by her candour, pragmatism, inspiration and vulnerability. Following the event we collected feedback which was overwhelmingly positive with attendees confirming it was one of the most powerful leadership sessions they have attended along with feeling more confident to apply self-leadership practices. We look forward to continuing to work with Kemi in the future.”

“We were lucky enough to organize an online conference witk Kemi for our executive managers in October 2020. She quickly understood our context of change and our challenges. Not only did she meet our needs, but she also provided us with relevant and tailor-made content to support our managers in these uncertain times.
Kemi is an inspiring and deeply human woman. She passes on her knowledge and experience with passion. The participants appreciated her dynamism, her positivity and the depth of her messages. I would recommend her to anyone who needs a convincing and compelling speaker on leadership issues.”

“We have had the privilege to work with Kemi Nekvapil over the past two years to redefine and reshape our team values. This work has proved instrumental in developing a stronger community and culture built on unity and collaboration amongst our leaders.
As a facilitator, Kemi has a genuine warmth, love and connection with all attendees. She is engaging, influential and interweaves powerful stories as a vehicle for learning and purpose. One of the most compelling outcomes of these sessions is not just that attendees have left feeling motivated and inspired, the benefits are more powerful and by definition meaningful as attendees leave with a greater sense of who they are as a leader and how they want to evolve to be bolder, more daring and more courageous to ultimately progress closer to reaching their true potential”.

“I asked Kemi to perform the crucial role of closing out our all staff conference where we challenged ourselves to brave Daring Leadership so that we may live into our values. Kemi blew away my expectations by delivering one of the most empowering and impactful conference sessions I’ve attended. Kemi’s courage to own her own story, relate it to the Daring Leadership framework and use her honed group coaching skills enabled her to connect with a large, diverse group at a deeply personal level. Kemi inspired deep reflection and personal growth for many participants that I didn’t know was possible. Over 70% of attendees provided feedback that Kemi’s session inspired them to make a change to choose courage over comfort. Our only disappointment was that Kemi’s session had to end, and my team keep asking me when we will work with Kemi again?”
- General Manager - Guild Insurance
It was super beneficial and an absolute pleasure to have Kemi spend two hours working with our Australian team as part of our national conference. Kemi provided some great insights into empowerment, leadership, ownership and attitude, from our very first conversation through to deliver at our conference, Kemi was humble, reliable and professional. As a speaker Kemi has a great balance of storytelling, humour, along with a great ability to connect and involve everyone in the room. Following the event we surveyed the 100 plus team members who attended and the response around the messaging and delivery was overwhelmingly positive. It would be a great pleasure and benefit to work with Kemi again in the future.”

“Emmanuel College invited Kemi Nekvapil to our Year 12 Retreat to talk to our cohort of Year 12 girls, about to embark on a huge year. The retreat focussed on encouraging students to consider what will help them through a difficult year. Kemi was a fabulous presenter who engaged all of our students with a powerful message of how they can take charge of their lives. Through her own experience, Kemi shared tales of strength, resilience, power and love. She reminded students that they do not have to be defined by events which happen to them. The girls reflected on Kemi’s challenge to be a supportive of ALL women, to be a good friend and to nurture yourself from the inside out, with good food, movement and positive thoughts. Kemi was terrific to work with and we would love to include her in our future retreats.”
- Kelley Revelman - Deputy Principal - Emmanuel College
“Kemi captured and held the enraptured attention of the audience throughout her presentation. Attendee feedback was overwhelming positive, with participants telling us they felt empowered and motivated to take action to strive towards their career development goal following their time with Kemi.
Kemi was a pleasure to work with, taking care to understand the aims of our program, which was very evident in her presentation on the day. We look forward to our next engagement with Kemi”.
