LEAD WITH HUMOUR KEYNOTE

You know how you feel after a good belly laugh? Your brain and body flooded with endorphins, recharged, happier. There’s a spring in your step. You feel anything is possible. Imagine amplifying this across your business, team and organisation?

Today humour is the new frontier in influence, engagement and performance. Generating laughs is Southwest Airlines official corporate motto. They test for humour as part of recruitment. 

Humour? You have to be kidding, you might say. ‘I’m not funny!’. Humour in business is NOT joke telling. It’s using ‘Humour Power’. This is a new kind of humour - warm, inclusive, culturally sensitive and uplifiting. Humour power is using humour skilfully and appropriately to connect, engage and inspire.

Humour power can be taught and learnt. No matter what your message, humour helps you stand out and succeed.

This keynote is an invitation to learn how to use humour for unprecedented business success.

It is guaranteed to lower stress, and put a spring in your step, improving your performance and productivity.

And be prepared to laugh all the way there.

Yamini is to storytelling as apple is to pie.
Peter Baines OAM, Founder, Hands Across Water
Yamini spoke at our 2019 conference in June and the feedback overwhelmingly indicated that Yamini should have been a keynote! To address this, we invited her on our August lunch roadshow around Australia and had our biggest numbers in all locations. Yamini’s engaging and humorous style made her stories memorable, complimented by her warm and friendly nature. Her session on storytelling, with examples woven throughout, helped association professionals realise the potential stories can have including demonstrating the value of being a member.
Toni Brearley, Chief Executive Officer, Australasian Society of Association Executives
Yamini attended our all-company meeting and showed us not only the importance but also the impact of storytelling. She engaged the whole group from start to finish. She did it in such a wonderful way that had us all thinking hard about how we could tell our own stories; after all, we all have an interesting story to tell!
Allison Rossiter, Managing Director Roche Diagnostics Australia
I’ve yet to meet a person who hasn’t called themselves ‘Yamini’s #1 fan’ after seeing her speak. She is breathtaking in every way. Authentic and professional, hilarious and insightful, big on inspiration but even bigger on practical value. Audiences don’t just learn a few things or feel good for a few hours after seeing Yamini on stage. They find the courage and clarity to make immediate changes in their work, life and relationships, resulting in a tsunami of positive impact in their careers, families, organisations and communities. If you want a speaker who doesn’t just nail the brief, but leaves your audience enthralled, pick up the phone and call her agent ASAP!
Mykel Dixon, award-winning speaker and Creative Leadership Expert, author of Everyday Creative: A dangerous guide to making magic a work
Yamini is a wonderful storyteller, mentor and human being. Her wisdom and charisma are infectious and she is guaranteed to bring light into any gathering.
Tania de Jong AM, Entrepreneur, Speaker, Soprano at Creative Universe, Creativity Australia, MindMedicine Australia & Creative Innovation
I have been privileged to have a long association with Yamini. She brings a positive spirit and infectious energy to her work and always leaves behind a lasting impression. More than 10 years on, people from my old team still comment on Yamini’s engaging educational sessions, with great content and challenging fun exercises that have made a real difference to their ability to connect with people in their lives.
