Embracing & Growing Through Change
Help your people grow through what they’re going through.
Embracing & Growing Through Change
Let’s face it: change is the new normal. Restructures, strategy changes, funding shifts, digital transformations, the list is endless.
We talk a lot about the need for people to adapt to change, yet very few leaders show people how they can do that. This keynote fills that gap.
Delivered with warmth, humour and change expertise, this session helps your people shift from simply surviving change to embracing and growing through it.
Key concepts covered:
✨ Understand the neuroscience of change and change responses
✨ Learn a practical 3-step model (GRA) to move through uncertainty
✨ Increase change agility, agency and constructive team behaviours
✨ Strengthen your culture in periods of disruption
✨ Support wellbeing

THE GRA FRAMEWORK
Ground. Reflect. Act.
Tanya’s signature 3-step model for navigating change – workplace or personal, big or small.
It’s accessible. It’s memorable. And yes, your people will be saying “GRA” around the office. Think of it like a mental handrail for when everything feels wobbly.
Audience takeaways…
✔ A digital handout of the GRA framework
✔ Access to a curated online hub: tools, blogs, “nudges” list + bonus downloads
✔ A fresh mindset around change—and a language to support it
✔ Optional add-ons: follow-up workshops, leadership coaching, or team sessions
The truth is it’s not change that we fear, it’s uncertainty. But with the right support we can all navigate change in a more constructive way. This keynote delivers a shift in thinking and a framework that sticks.
