Why Time Management Doesn't Work & What to Do Instead

Vikki Yaffe reveals why traditional time management techniques fail high achievers, leading to burnout and frustration. She exposes the hidden time traps that keep professionals stuck in cycles of overwork and diminishing returns. By challenging outdated productivity myths, Vikki introduces a radically different approach to achieving more with less effort. Audiences will gain practical strategies to rethink time, break free from ineffective habits, and create sustainable success without sacrificing their well-being.

Your Most Powerful Productivity Tool: Your Brain

Productivity isn't about tools, apps, or endless to-do lists - it’s about how the brain operates under pressure. Vikki Yaffe explores the neuroscience behind focus, decision-making, and efficiency, revealing how cognitive patterns shape success. She shares powerful techniques to train the brain for peak performance, overcome procrastination, and eliminate wasted effort. Attendees will leave equipped with a deeper understanding of how to work with, rather than against, their natural cognitive processes to achieve greater impact in less time.

How to Make Effective Decisions

Every decision shapes results, yet most people waste hours overthinking, second-guessing, and hesitating. Vikki Yaffe unpacks the psychology of decision-making, showing how cognitive biases, fear of failure, and perfectionism delay success. She introduces a framework for making high-quality decisions quickly and confidently. With engaging insights and real-world examples, Vikki helps audiences shift from hesitation to action, unlocking faster progress and greater ease in their professional and personal lives.

Failure, How to Fail, Our Relationship to Failure

Failure isn’t the enemy - it’s the foundation of success. Vikki Yaffe challenges the stigma around failure and explores how our mindset towards setbacks can shape our personal and professional growth. She reveals why the fear of failure leads to procrastination, perfectionism, and missed opportunities, and shares practical strategies to reframe failure as a powerful learning tool. Attendees will gain the confidence to embrace uncertainty, take more risks, and turn failures into stepping stones for future success.

Time & Women, Working Parents & Neurodiversity

Traditional productivity advice ignores the diverse challenges faced by women, parents, and neurodivergent professionals. Vikki Yaffe tackles the systemic and personal barriers that impact time management for these groups, offering strategies that prioritise effectiveness over outdated efficiency models. She highlights how shifting workplace culture, expectations, and personal habits can create a more inclusive and sustainable approach to success. Attendees will walk away with a fresh perspective on productivity that aligns with their reality, rather than forcing them to fit outdated models.

We work with a wide variety of speaker agents and talent agencies to ensure we have the best selection of speakers, hosts, comedians and entertainers available.

Our goal is to help you find the speaker who best matches your event’s goals and budget. We take the time to understand your event, objectives, and audience to recommend the right fit.
