who ARE you?

We've never had access to more information about other people's lives. And yet, when asked the simplest question, "Who are you?", most people go blank. Behind the identity we perform for the world lives a rawer, truer self. That self holds the key to a life that is both easy and impactful.

In this high-energy, emotionally honest keynote, Afua takes audiences on a journey of radical self-discovery. Expect to laugh, to gasp, and to leave with a clarity about yourself that you didn't walk in with.

Audience walks away able to:

  • Separate their core identity from the roles and actions they perform daily
  • Identify the stories they tell themselves and understand how those stories shape reality
  • Recognize that their past struggles are the foundation of their future triumphs
  • Move forward with confidence and clarity on how to live authentically

Inclusive Leadership (aka How to be a Human)

Inclusion is a practice. And it starts with something we all already know how to do: be human.

In this candid, no-nonsense session, Afua gives leaders the concrete tools to build teams where everyone, regardless of background, identity, or lived experience, can thrive. Leaders leave with practical steps they can act on immediately, delivered with the humour and honesty Afua is known for.

Audience walks away able to:

  • Lay the groundwork for a culture that genuinely welcomes everyone
  • Plan and execute inclusion efforts in a way that reduces the most common barriers
  • Respond to mistakes with accountability and curiosity
  • Identify where exclusion is showing up in their current events, communications, and team development

Leading Based on Colour Personalities

Every person on your team thinks, communicates, and makes decisions differently. When leaders understand those differences, they can meet people where they are, bring out their best, and build teams that actually function.

This interactive workshop introduces the Colour Personalities framework, a practical model that gives leaders immediate, usable insight into themselves and the people they lead. Real insight that translates directly into how you show up the next morning.

Participants leave with:

  • A clear understanding of the four colour personality types — Blue, Red, Yellow, and Green — and how each shows up at work
  • Insight into their own dominant style and its impact on the people around them
  • Concrete communication strategies tailored to each personality type
  • Tools to navigate conflict, build trust, and have more productive conversations across their team

Communication · Self-Awareness · Team Dynamics

Ideal for: Managers and team leads · HR and L&D teams · New and emerging leaders · Corporate training days

Available in English & French · Half-day format

Leading and Communicating With a Remote Team

Distributed teams perform at their best when they are aligned on how they work together. Explicit processes, intentional collaboration, and workflows built for asynchronous work are what separate teams that thrive remotely from those that struggle.

This workshop gives leaders the practical frameworks to build high-functioning remote teams grounded in trust, clarity, and shared accountability.

Participants leave with:

  • Explicit team processes that eliminate ambiguity and reduce friction
  • A framework for intentional collaboration — knowing when to meet and when to work independently
  • Workflows restructured for asynchronous work that respect different schedules and working styles
  • A team dysfunction diagnostic based on Lencioni's Five Dysfunctions model to identify where their team is losing trust, commitment, or accountability

Remote Work · Async Communication · Team Alignment

Ideal for: Remote and hybrid team managers · Operations and people leaders · Organizations transitioning to distributed work
