Signature Keynote
Build with Intention: 3 Keys to Confident Leadership and High-Performing Teams
When Kris Langworthy’s young daughter was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor, she discovered something in the middle of that night that changed everything: the quality of our questions determines the quality of our outcomes.
That single shift, from “why is this happening” to “where is this going,” became the foundation for how she now teaches leaders to lead under pressure.
In this engaging, insight-rich keynote, Kris draws on that moment, and more than three decades in healthcare, education, and leadership development, to give leaders three keys to confident leadership and high-performing teams: Clarity. Alignment. Intentional Action.
Attendees leave with a real story they won’t forget, and a practical framework they can use the moment they walk out of the room.

Workshops for Teams
Looking for something more immersive for your team or conference?
Kris’s workshops are interactive, half- or full-day group experiences. They go further than a keynote, giving teams hands-on frameworks they can put to work right away. The information below outlines two sample workshops.
Overcoming Overwhelm:
3 Keys to Dismantle Stress from the Inside Out
Every leader faces competing priorities, difficult decisions, and constant demands on their time and attention.
In this highly interactive workshop, participants learn Kris’s AAA Challenge Response Framework™ – a practical, three-step tool for navigating pressure in real time.
Participants learn to Acknowledge their current reality, Ask quality questions using Kris’s Intentional IMPACT Filter, and Activate with intention, aligning every decision with their vision, values, and purpose.
Instead of reacting to stress, participants leave knowing how to respond to it, even in their hardest moments.
My Piece. Our Purpose: Where Individual Purpose Meets Team Performance
Confident leaders and high-performing teams are what happens when people understand not only what they do, but why they do it and how their unique contribution strengthens the mission.
Using a diversity of engaging activities and proven assessment tools (including the Why.OS assessment tool), participants gain greater self-awareness and learn to value and appreciate the strengths of others.
They also discover how increased clarity and alignment promotes the opportunity for intentional leadership.
This results in healthier communication, stronger collaboration, and more engaged teams.
