Lead what’s next — not what wears you down.
Play Speaker Reel
We’ve trained people to perform and prove their value, not to practice leadership. Daisy Auger-Domínguez, author of Inclusion Revolution and Burnt Out to Lit Up, believes that real leadership starts when we learn to live well — not just work well.
A global C-suite executive, strategist, and workplace thought leader, Daisy captivates audiences with her sharp insights, emotional resonance, and clear, actionable strategies. Known for her energy, empathy, humor, and clarity, she transforms today’s workplace challenges — burnout, distrust, complexity — into practical next steps people can use right away.
Her talks expand thinking, build leadership confidence, and equip teams to bring their best selves to work.
Drawing from decades at the intersection of business, culture, and innovation — at companies like Google, Disney, and Vice Media — Daisy bridges personal agency (what you can do) with structural reality (why these problems persist). She doesn’t just name the problem — she shows you the how.
Whether she’s keynoting a global summit, facilitating a leadership offsite, or hosting a fireside chat, Daisy leaves audiences inspired, grounded, and ready to lead with clarity, resilience, and purpose.
