Topics, sessions and talks
As AI transforms how we work, lead, communicate and relate, the human qualities of trust, empathy, creativity and connection become more valuable, not less. Drawing on 25 years spanning technology, digital transformation, entrepreneurship and global leadership, Bianca Best reveals why Human Connection is becoming one of the defining leadership and commercial imperatives of our time. Audiences leave knowing how to embrace AI while protecting the trust, belonging and creativity that let people and organisations flourish.
Leadership is no longer only about setting direction and delivering results. In a fragmented, hybrid and fast-changing world, leaders must create conditions in which people feel safe, valued, energised and connected enough to perform at their best. Combining corporate leadership experience with psychology, neuroscience and energetic intelligence, Bianca Best explores how a leader's presence and energy shape team culture, why belonging drives performance, and how leaders build trust, cohesion and resilience through uncertainty.
Behind the visible pressures facing modern organisations sits a less visible crisis: the depletion of human energy. Using her Energyscape® methodology, Bianca Best reveals how energy moves through individuals, relationships, teams and organisational cultures, shaping clarity, creativity, resilience and performance. She combines science, strategy and lived experience to show leaders how to recognise patterns of depletion, restore sustainable flow and create environments in which people can bring their fullest energy to their work.
High performance should not require self-sacrifice, yet too many talented people deliver extraordinary results while quietly depleting the energy, health and joy that make lasting success possible. Based on her bestselling book and Energyscape® methodology, Bianca Best challenges conventional thinking about productivity, showing individuals and teams how to create greater impact through intelligent energy management, stronger boundaries, conscious focus and sustainable flow. Audiences leave with strategies for elevating performance without sacrificing their wellbeing.

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.
