See keynotes with Neelu KaurThe success of any organization rests squarely on the strength of its people. Unfortunately, many professionals struggle to speak up and advocate for themselves in the workplace.
When employees feel unheard and overlooked, it leads to resentment and disengagement, stifling innovation and productivity.
In “Be Your Own Cheerleader”, Neelu leverages a multi-dimensional approach to leadership and wellness that inspires audiences to own their value while equipping them with practical self-advocacy strategies.
In this session, audience will:
Identify actionable techniques to speak up and be heard
Learn strategies to have difficult conversations that unlock potential instead of locking in negativity
Redirect thinking from invalidating self-talk to positive encouragement
Articulate their value and impact to ensure contributions are recognized and appreciated
Perfect for women’s conferences and DEI events, “Be Your Own Cheerleader: the Power of Self-Advocacy for Underrepresented Voices” is a specialized extension of Neelu’s core “Be Your Own Cheerleader” program, with a focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
Most DEI programs aim to reduce cultural biases, but this keynote goes a step further. It offers practical remedies for the impacts these biases have already caused. This program provides audiences a comprehensive toolkit designed to help individuals from underrepresented backgrounds voice their ideas confidently, contribute effectively, and advance their careers.
This session:
Equips participants with the skills necessary for robust self-advocacy
Specifically addresses the unique challenges faced by marginalized or underrepresented groups in the workplace
Fosters a more inclusive, equitable, and dynamic workplace where every voice is heard and valued
Embraces the foundational concepts of self-advocacy and personal empowerment
Burnout, stress, and overwhelm are sad facts of modern life, affecting not just personal well-being, but also organizational performance, engagement, and retention.
Leveraging the principals of Ayurveda—an ancient Indian healing system based on the belief that health and wellness depend on a delicate balance between the mind, body, and spirit—this interactive program takes a holistic approach to overcoming stress and burnout in the workplace.
Revitalizing Resilience is an essential investment for organizations looking to nurture their top talent and create a healthier, more productive workplace.
In this session, audience will:
Develop awareness of burnout before it hits
Empower participants to structure their days around work and play, ensuring both are achieved well
Provide the skills needed to cope with the stresses and strains of everyday life

Neelu’s ability to engage with and facilitate at all levels is bar-none. Her emotional intelligence and subject matter expertise proved to be extremely useful. For a recent event hosted by our Asian Heritage Group, Neelu was able to keep our audience engaged with content that was relevant to both empowering our Asian/Pacific Islander (API) employees while also educating allies on how they can better support their API colleagues. She's also an amazing human. Interpublic Group will definitely be inviting Neelu back for another event in the future.

Neelu is a proven L&D (Learning & Development) value creator who was engaged at Volante Technologies. She executed peer advisory sales sessions and spearheaded the design and launch of a structured curriculum across the company. Along the way her collaborative and exploratory approach enabled Neelu to seamlessly show up an executive coach to emerging leaders and she was also able to spearhead programming aimed at amplifying women's voices at Volante. Neelu's insights, research, and metric based approach were spot on and significantly advanced Volante's L & D agenda during her time here. She is also a dynamic personality with an infectious spirit and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend.

The workshop Neelu facilitated for our community was wonderful. From her initial planning to the delivery of the workshop, Neelu demonstrated her expertise in leading large groups in this format. The attendees were engaged for the full hour and left the event feeling energized and wanting more. We received multiple personal notes from attendees expressing how much it impacted them!

I found her to be highly skilled and professional alongside having a warm and friendly personality that would put anyone at ease. After our session of mind-scaping I felt a real shift to the positive and I feel It has improved some of my underlying beliefs to the point where I am more focused and motivated.

Working with Neelu helped me drive more clarity in the skills that are so important as a physician executive. Using her succinct and organized step by step holistic approach shifted me to internalize specific tactics to improve the way I could provide better feedback, approach questions, inspire my team or deliver key presentations. Also, wellness integration was a unique differentiator with her coaching sessions. Highly recommend her!

Recently I had a mindscape facilitated by Neelu. I found Neelu very sensitive in how she helped me to develop the ‘scape and kept the pace which is crucial just right for me. She was careful to be there but not involved so able to help me get the most from the experience. The outcome has some way to run since this is very much a long-term goal but I have every expectation that all will turn out well.

We wanted to host a festive, interactive Zoom session to connect family and friends before our in-person wedding. We asked Neelu to facilitate and were thrilled with how the event turned out. Throughout the planning process, she provided creative ideas, such as the name of our gathering, “Pre-Wedding Frolic.” She also suggested fun and meaningful activities that helped our guests get to know each other in an online environment. Additionally, she secured a technical assistant to help with Zoom so that she could focus on facilitation to ensure our family and friends felt welcomed. Because of Neelu’s warm and inviting style, our guests really enjoyed the session and a family member even commented, “That was the fastest and most fun Zoom I’ve ever been on.” Neelu made this special occasion memorable for us and our whole family!
