Elizabeth A. Stanley, PhD

Speaking


I love speaking with people who carry real responsibility—senior leaders, executive teams, first responders, healthcare workers, educators—about how to stay grounded and effective under pressure. My talks and workshops weave rigorous science together with lived experience and practical tools, so people leave understanding why we react the way we do and how to respond with more intention and ease. Whether you’re planning a keynote for a large hall or a workshop for your team, here’s how we can work together.

  • Speaking & Keynotes

    Talks for conferences, leadership gatherings, and large events. Topics include resilience, leadership, ethics and decision-making under pressure, the biology of conflict and cooperation, and our human advantage in the age of AI. I bring together lived experience, the science of how stress shapes our bodies and our choices, and practical tools your audience can use right away.

  • Organizational Workshops & Trainings

    Experiential workshops and trainings for leadership teams and organizations, from a half-day to multiple days, customized to your people and goals. Topics include embodied resilience, resilient leadership, leading from multiple futures in an age of uncertainty, and any of my keynote topics in workshop form. Participants learn the science and practice the skills together, building the inner resources and adaptive capacity that shape how teams perform under pressure.
