Amanda Gore began her career in Australia with a bachelor’s degree in physiotherapy and a major in psychology. After 10 years of clinical practice, obsessed with keeping people well, she became a wellness consultant, working in ergonomics and occupational health. Along the way she grew more curious about something harder to measure: how people think, feel and treat each other, and the impact of stress on every part of work and life.
That curiosity turned into one question she has now spent 30+ years answering. What truly drives human behavior?
She still spends a third of every year studying neurolinguistics, neuroscience, emotional intelligence and quantum physics. Then she does the part most researchers skip: she turns the science into simple tools people can use at work and at home, starting that same afternoon.
People don’t change when they’re told to. They change when they feel safe and they understand what needs to change and why.
Radiate Joy: Be the Best Boss They Ever Had
People leave bosses, not jobs. So what is it like to work for you when the numbers are down and the pressure is up?
This keynote answers that question with warmth, practical skills and tools, and a lot of laughter. Amanda Gore shows leaders how their state, emotions, communication and energy spread through a team, and how that shapes trust, engagement and performance.
Then she gives them the skills to change it. Science-backed tools to reset under pressure, move from fear and reactivity to clarity and connection, and build cultures where people feel valued, safe and ready to contribute.
What leaders walk away with
- A clear picture of how their state spreads through a team, and how to make it work for them
- The F.A.R.K. principle to change state in seconds
- Simple ways to move a team from fear and reactivity to trust, calm and connection
- The neuroscience of leadership, explained in plain English
- Daily habits that build cultures where people feel valued, engaged and want to stay
It’s Not What You Say. It’s What They Hear.
Every leader has had it happen. You say exactly the right words, and the room hears something else entirely.
That’s because people read your state, your face, your voice and your energy before your words land. Communication keynote speaker Amanda Gore studied nonverbal communication and group dynamics with Michael Grinder for 30 years. In this keynote, she shows leaders what their people pick up before a word is spoken, and how to send the signal that builds trust and confidence.
What leaders walk away with
- How to read the room, and adjust in the moment
- The nonverbal signals that build trust and influence
- How to get into the right state before an important conversation
- How to listen so people feel heard
- Simple ways to keep a message clear under pressure

What your people walk away with
- The science of joy, put to work for resilience, collaboration and performance

- Simple rituals that build psychological safety and personal accountability

Buyers Feel It First: How Top Performers Win Trust and Close More Deals
Buyers feel it first. Long before the proposal, the price or the close, they’ve picked up how a seller feels: confident or anxious, curious or pushy, there to help or there to hit a number.
Top performers know this. They manage their own state, so buyers warm to them and trust them. The rest of the team is often working harder on the pitch. Top performers are experts at building rapport and reading the state of their customers or clients, so they can adapt and adjust how they communicate.
Amanda Gore studied nonverbal communication and group dynamics with Michael Grinder for 30 years. In this keynote she shows sales teams what buyers pick up before a word lands, and how to send the signal that wins trust and builds rapport. Every salesperson hears no. Top performers reframe it, reset fast and walk into the next call ready to win.
What your sales team walks away with
- How to walk into every call in their best state, and stay there
- The nonverbal signals buyers trust, and how to send them
- How to reframe no and bounce back faster
- Ways to build rapport and trust at every stage of the sale
- A shared language your top performers and new hires both use
From Burnout to Joy
The last few years have left plenty of leaders and teams running on empty. Long hours, constant change, uncertainty, doing more with less and heavy workloads all take their toll, day after day. Learn more about joy at work, why it pays and how to get more of it.
Burnout keynote speaker Amanda Gore gives people the skills to refill the tank, even on the busiest days. Built on the science of joy, this keynote blends neuroscience, epigenetics, emotional intelligence, stories and laughter to help leaders and teams move from fatigue to fulfillment, and from compliance to contribution.
It’s a keynote about how to joy your way back. The laughter is constant, and people walk out with more energy than they walked in with.
What your people walk away with
- Simple brain tools to reset stress in the moment
- The science of joy, and how it drives engagement, performance and wellbeing
- Renewed energy, confidence and optimism
- The resilience to handle change with courage
A culture where people choose to contribute
The Perspective Payoff
Two people can face the same deadline, the same difficult client and the same bad week, and walk away with completely different mindsets. The difference is the lens they look through.
Amanda Gore’s three glasses show people how the lens they’re wearing changes what they see, how they react and what they can do next.
What people walk away with
- A simple way to spot which glasses they’re wearing, in any moment
- Tools to reframe pressure, change and conflict in seconds
- More options when a problem feels stuck
- Better conversations, because they see the other person differently
- More compassion for, and understanding of, colleagues and clients
- A shared language the whole team keeps using long after the event
