Topics, sessions and talks
Amy Eliza Wong reveals The Spotlight Shift™, the hidden pattern where pressure quietly turns leaders' focus inward on self-protection instead of shared purpose. Drawing on the neuroscience of fear and attention, she shows how looking careful, professional, or busy can mask silent damage to trust, honesty, and momentum. Through story, humor, and her signature framework, Amy gives audiences a practical way to catch the shift in the moment and move from self-protection to building together. Leaders leave with a tool they can use in their very next conversation, especially when the path ahead isn't clear.
Amy Eliza Wong shows how trust is built not in offsites or values statements, but in the everyday conversations where the work happens. Drawing on her Spotlight Shift™ framework, the neuroscience of trust, and her certification in Conversational Intelligence®, she reveals how every conversation either builds trust or spends it. Audiences learn how to prime for trust before a high-stakes meeting, ask questions that open people up rather than shut them down, and align a room full of different agendas around one shared goal. Teams leave able to decide faster, trust deeper, and commit to a direction together, even without every answer in hand.
Amy Eliza Wong exposes how resistance, not workload, is the real energy leak on stalled teams, showing up as hedging, rework, silence, and blame long before it reads as a performance problem. Drawing on cognitive science and positive psychology, she reveals why pushing harder narrows thinking exactly when a team needs it wide, and why turning toward what people actually want to create reopens it. Through story, humor, and interactive moments, Amy gives teams a shared language for catching resistance the moment it appears and a simple reframe they can run in their next meeting. The result: creativity, honest conversation, and momentum return without anyone being told to try harder.
Amy Eliza Wong transforms organizational communication through her neuroscience-backed Spotlight Shift™, helping teams at LinkedIn, Salesforce, and Meta move from self-focus to shared purpose. Book this award-winning leadership strategist to equip your team with practical frameworks that build psychological safety, accelerate decision-making, and drive sustainable results.

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
