Amanda Gore is a keynote speaker, communications expert, and workplace culture specialist who helps organizations eradicate fear, spread joy, and improve performance through emotional intelligence, neuroscience, positive psychology, and human connection. Her engaging keynotes inspire lasting behavioral change that helps leaders build stronger teams, improve communication, increase engagement, and create more joyful workplaces.

Many speakers inspire audiences for a day. Amanda Gore creates lasting change. Drawing on the latest research in neuroscience, emotional intelligence, positive psychology, and human behavior, Amanda helps leaders understand how people think, connect, communicate, and perform — so organizations experience higher engagement, stronger relationships, and improved business results.

Amanda believes that feelings drive behavior. People perform better when they feel connected, valued, and engaged. Because emotions influence decision-making, cooperation, learning, communication, and customer relationships, Amanda teaches practical strategies that help people think differently, behave differently, and ultimately achieve better results.

Unlike many keynote speakers, Amanda focuses on lasting behavioral change rather than temporary motivation. Her sessions are highly interactive, memorable, and research-based — and audiences often remember and apply her lessons for years after an event. One attendee recently recalled three key lessons from a presentation Amanda delivered seventeen years earlier.

"I'm just sorry I waited so long to book you for a meeting. Only once in a rare while does a speaker come along who actually affects real change from their 90 minutes on stage. You breathe that rarified air!" — McDonald's
