Keynote Speaking Topics
Inspire your employees, new graduates, up and coming leaders with a keynote address.
1. Killing It at Work
We spend so much time at work. Unfortunately many of us are missing opportunities, losing our way, or even unintentionally sabotaging our careers. Let’s tap into personal accountability to get more plugged into work, to show up for ourselves and others, to find joy and deliver our best!
2. Alone In Mexico
A playful and intimate account of time alone in Mexico (at a 5 star couple’s resort). Be entertained with delightful stories and walk away with a couple of valuable insights about the importance of the occasional “pause” in life, to look inside, to learn and to make choices.
3. Life is Improv!
Well it sure ain’t scripted! Learn about the tools of improv that can help in all of our work settings, and exercise our creative muscles. Linda draws from her studies with Second City to create an energizing experience.

Kind Words…
“Linda is simply an amazing coach and speaker.”
She has a way of clearing the weeds to reveal the core, and then guiding towards solutions. I can always trust Linda to lead me to experience many ‘ah ha’ moments. Linda is a very engaging and inspiring speaker, with a wide range of speaking topics, and an ability to captivate her audience.
“As a speaker and facilitator, she connects deeply to her audience through authentically sharing humour, knowledge, and practical experience.”
I’ve had the pleasure to work with Linda Spence for 15 years in various capacities from consulting, designing, facilitating, and coaching. Linda is gifted in all those areas. She helps her participants reflect and connect to the content she is presenting in a way that helps them transform ideas and strategies into action. Linda is motivational in a subtle and effective way; through her delivery style, she is able to convey her sincere hope that people will experience real growth in their professional and personal lives.
