“In this time of uncertainty and disconnection, curiosity and play are your new superpowers for sparking connection, unleashing creativity and delivering deep clarity.’

Curiosity and play have sparked the biggest breakthroughs in history. So, when you foster them in the workplace, it connects people back to each other and empowers teams to new approaches, overcome longstanding roadblocks and face the future with clarity and confidence.

I work with organisations like Commonwealth Bank of Australia, RSM, Deakin University, the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, Microsoft, Mozilla Foundation, the Australian Computer Society, the RAC (WA) and the Department of Finance (WA) to unleash their curiosity and empower their people. My work has been featured on MTV, at the Toronto International Film Festival and the National Theatre in London and the new WA Museum.

Testimonial inserts

“Kate is a top class thinker, leader and facilitator. She ran a games/XR workshop for me at Deakin a while back which got rave reviews from colleagues. She is hands on and effective, not a “lecturer” but a leader to new ideas.”

PROFESSOR MATTHEW ALLEN, DEAKIN UNIVERSITY AUSTRALIA

“Entertaining, bold, and clever. She has more talent and skills at keynote event facilitation featuring Lego than [Lego Masters’ hosts] Will Arnett and Hamish Blake combined. As the star attraction of my organization's virtual AGM, Kate kept the audience entertained and intrigued with her presentation and accompanying workshop”.

ANDREW KRUPOWICZ, INTERNAL AUDITORS ASSOCIATION TORONTO CHAPTER
