Meet The Expert

Kate Richardson-Walsh OBE, former captain of the GB and England women's hockey teams for 13 years, led her teams with solid leadership, culminating in a gold medal win at the Rio Olympic Games. Following a disappointing performance at the 2014 World Cup, where the team finished 11th, a focused effort was made to rebuild the team's culture. This involved fostering positive behaviour, a shared sense of purpose, and a distributed leadership model to maintain these values. Gain insights on building a winning culture, fostering resilience, and enhancing teamwork from an Olympic gold medalist and experienced coach. Elevate your team's performance and unity with her inspirational story.

Outcomes

Our PepTalk workshops are custom-designed to your needs and include the following key elements.

Hear Kate's journey as the captain of Team GB and England Women's Hockey teams and create a high-performance culture, leading to their gold medal win at the Rio Olympic Games.
Understand the importance of values in driving productivity and morale, and how aligning around meaningful values can boost team performance.
Learn from Kate's experience leading a gold-medal team about the significance of psychological safety, self-awareness, and empathy in creating successful teams.
Gain actionable tools for transforming your teams and workplace, and understand the business case for culture change through examples from Kate’s leadership.

"She gave a fascinating, insightful interview on leadership, team dynamics and the culture of a winning team, all in a way that was relevant to our senior corporate audience and which perfectly strengthened the core theme of our event: how to achieve gender balance and redefine leadership. It was an honour to have Kate join us and the audience loved it. I would fully recommend her as a speaker."

Why are

Stories so

Effective?

We know that stories stick. According to Stanford Graduate School of Business Professor Jennifer Aaker, stories are up to 22 times more memorable than facts or figures alone. Our brains are wired to remember stories, and listening to our experts tell theirs can benefit your team in three significant ways.

Shaping Perceptions
When people listen to stories, they help them shape opinions about others and the world we live in. These stories can influence decisions, such as hiring someone, buying from them, or liking them. The stories you hear also impact how we feel about ourselves and others, which is vital for inclusion.
Capturing Attention
Stories naturally draw people in and make them pay attention. When someone shares a story, you are likelier to slow down and engage with their message, allowing us to understand their insights more deeply.
Inspiring Action
Stories have the power to move people and change behaviour. A compelling story can motivate us to take action, guiding us through an engaging journey that leads to conviction and change.

What Makes PepTalk Workshops Different?

Stories stick. It’s said that people remember stories 22 times better than facts alone. That’s why we designed our workshops to blend theory with real-world stories, offering engaging content rich in actionable insights.
How do we do this? PepTalk pairs an experienced facilitator with a real-world expert to deliver sessions beyond the keynote. Your leaders gain skills they can immediately apply, fostering genuine behaviour change.
