This one runs as an interactive workshop: the hour includes exercises your colleagues do themselves, not only a talk.
Fiona Passantino is an AI-Human keynote speaker, trainer, and facilitator. Her mission? To empower the non-technical Working Human to understand and use AI effectively, maximizing connection, engagement, and creativity for more joy and inspiration in the workplace.
All sessions by Fiona →Simple steps towards increasing your authentic leadership impact and effectiveness.
We humans believe in the things we see. When we see and feel the presence of leadership, we are swept up in the vision and mission of the company and our team. When our leaders are visible, engaging us and communicating about this purpose, working alongside us, ready to listen, this builds trust, inspires and empowers.
Visible leadership is a practice of consistent habits that can be learned and incorporated into a daily routine. Five simple tips that don’t take up too much of your time to increase your leadership visibility and leverage AI to help you as a content creator.
During the expert session, Fiona Passantino engages the audience through methods like a Q&A session, live demonstrations using the Mentimeter app for interactive exercises, and encouraging active participation by collecting anonymous responses to promote open dialogue. These activities help the audience grasp the importance of effective leadership in building trust and engaging with their community, both internally and externally, and foster a collaborative environment.
Recognizing the value of both internal and external visibility, leaders should make use of tools like AI and live video casts to enhance their presence within their organization and beyond.
Adopting a listen-first approach in communication, leaders can foster a collaborative environment by giving full attention to others before sharing perspectives, leading to better understanding and inclusivity.
Incorporating interactive methods like the Mentimeter app into sessions encourages active participation, promotes open dialogue, and creates a more engaging and inclusive learning experience for all attendees.
In this expert session, Fiona Passantino discusses the importance of leadership visibility in today's workforce. She begins by acknowledging the trend towards "quiet quitting," where employees are present but not fully engaged.
Fiona emphasizes that effective leadership plays a crucial role in bridging gaps between different types of workers and communicating effectively with a diverse workforce, given humans' unique backgrounds, motivations, and communication styles.
The speaker then shifts the focus towards leadership visibility, both internally and externally. External visibility refers to a leader's presence in the world, such as being an expert, sharing knowledge with larger communities, and using digital spaces.
Internal visibility means a leader's presence within their organization, including physically engaging with employees and creating internal events.
Fiona acknowledges that some leaders may feel they don't have time for these activities but encourages using tools like AI and live video casts to help manage their visibility. She offers tips on becoming more visible, such as strategic walkabouts, leading with personal connections, and being fully present during meetings.
Fiona emphasizes the significance of leaders being visible both internally and externally to build trust, engage with their communities, and set a positive example for others. She encourages taking a backseat role in team meetings, allowing team members to share ideas first before sharing one's perspective as a leader. However, she also acknowledges that this depends on the specific team and their needs.
No prior knowledge is assumed. It is built for a general working audience, and people who already know the subject get the research and the practical side rather than an introduction. What the hour itself covers: Simple steps towards increasing your authentic leadership impact and effectiveness. We humans believe in the things we see.
A workshop. The description of this session says so itself: the hour includes exercises and activities that participants do, not only an expert speaking. It still runs live and online, for as many colleagues as you want to invite.
Fiona Passantino is one of the experts we auditioned ourselves, and we produce every session so we see how each one lands. Participants rate this session 3.9 out of 5, across 15 responses, and rate Fiona personally 4.1 out of 5.
It is interactive, and the block higher up on this page says exactly how for this session. Nobody has to speak up who does not want to: the chat and the polls carry most of it, and the questions can come in anonymously.
It runs 45 min / 15 min: the talk, then live questions. All you do is pick a date. We brief Fiona, produce the session, host and moderate it, run the Q&A, and send you the report within an hour of the end.
A team, a department, an employee network or every single employee at once, with no cap and no per-seat price. It runs inside your own Microsoft Teams, Zoom or Google Meet, or on a branded page we build. No integration, no login, no company device or e-mail.
The session is delivered in English. You can add high accuracy live subtitles in 8, 16 or 24 languages, so everyone follows in their own. That is a paid option, priced by the number of languages you need.
No, and that is by design. There is nothing to install, nothing to integrate and no connection to your systems, so there is nothing for IT to validate: we join your own Teams, Zoom or Meet as a guest speaker, or we host a page and your people open a link. No software, no accounts, and no data of yours that we can reach. It is why hundreds of companies, among them some of the largest technology and financial firms in the world, were able to start within a day.
We never receive or hold personal data about your employees. Because the session runs in your own environment, attendance and identity stay with you, and what we report back is aggregated: numbers, ratings and survey answers, not people. That is also why IT approval usually takes minutes rather than weeks.
You keep the recording and can share it internally. You also get attendance over time, participant ratings for the content and the speaker, the survey answers, and the topics your people asked for next.
