Kellie Tomney | Future of Work Keynote Speaker
Kellie Tomney is a transformative keynote speaker who inspires clarity, confidence, and commitment in leaders, teams, and organisations - futureproofing them in a world reshaped by AI, disruption, and the relentless collision of technology, human, and global change.
Will You Thrive, Survive, or Stop in the New World of Work?
Right now, many organisations, leaders and teams are Future FRAIL, Future FRANTIC, or Future FEARFUL.
The reality?
Growth targets are doubling or tripling in 1–3 years - without proportional resources.
Skills shortages are choking delivery, innovation, and agility.
Overhauls to strategy, systems, processes, skills, and structures are happening all at once.
AI acceleration, shifting economies, and low-growth environments are raising pressure while energy and engagement plummet.
Leaders are navigating restructures, redundancies, and reorganisations while trying to keep burnt-out, change-fatigued teams moving forward.
Transformation and change fatigue is stalling strategies. AI anxiety is slowing adoption.
Confidence is eroding. Fear of irrelevance is growing.
This collision of big goals, burnt-out teams, and AI-driven disruption is putting every leader and organisation to the test.
Kellie Tomney is the Catalyst, Transformer, and Growth Activator who gets you Future FITT™ - driving sustainable growth, innovation, and impact without the overwhelm.
She reignites clarity, confidence, and commitment in your people. She unites silos into shared focus and rhythm. She builds leadership capability that turns AI anxiety into adoption, change fatigue into momentum, and survival mode into sustainable growth.
With Kellie, you’ll transform from Future FRAIL to Future FITT - ready to lead, grow, and thrive in our fast-changing world.
