Speaking on Self-Leadership, Personal Presence and Influence

Sue Kohn-Taylor

Self-Leadership & Personal Brand Specialist.

International Speaker | Coach | Facilitator

You can feel when someone has presence. You can tell when someone has lost themselves.

Sue Kohn-Taylor works with leaders, business owners, and working professionals on the part of success nobody talks about. The pressure underneath. The noise inside. The version of yourself that got buried somewhere between the to-do list, meetings and stress.

Sue's work sits at the intersection of self-leadership, personal presence, and the human side of performance. How you show up when life is full. How you stay clear when everything speeds up. How you lead yourself when autopilot has quietly taken over.

Sue is known for three things. Making people feel deeply seen, saying out loud what most people are quietly experiencing and getting people off auto-pilot.

With over 20 years across corporate leadership and three businesses of her own, she brings real-world weight to everything she does. This is not just theory. It's lived experience, sharp insight, and work that actually changes how people move through the world.

Her core belief is simple.

Self-Leadership is your edge in life and business.

It creates your presence.

And personal presence is your influence.

In a world full of noise, speed, and relentless demand, technical skill is not enough. Strategy is not enough. The people who truly thrive are the ones who can regulate themselves under pressure, stay grounded in uncertainty, and show up with clarity, intention, and impact.

In today’s VUCA world, technical skill is not enough. Strategy is not enough. Hustle is not enough. The people who thrive are those who can self-lead themselves each day even under pressure, stay grounded in uncertainty, and act with clarity instead of reaction. They create their own presence and influence.

Sue’s signature framework, The Self-Leadership Advantage, is built on three pillars.

Through compelling storytelling, science-backed insights, and deeply practical tools, she equips audiences to:

  • Break free from autopilot and reactive patterns

  • Strengthen emotional and mental fitness

  • Show up with clarity, confidence, energy, and calm brand

  • Create ripple effects across teams, culture, and home life

From Autopilot to Intention

When You Change, Everything Shifts

Somewhere along the way, you stopped choosing. You just started coping.

Life works. Career works. You look fine from the outside. But underneath, something feels off. The spark feels less intense. Intention has turned to reactive. The disconnect from relationships is real.

This is not burnout. It's autopilot. And it is far more common than anyone admits.

This keynote is a wake-up call and a permission slip for all working professionals to stop running on autopilot. To lead yourself with energy and intention because when you shift, everything around you shifts too.

Your energy changes. Your presence changes. Your influence changes.

Focus Points:

  • Why capable, driven people quietly slip into autopilot - and why it is not weakness

  • Why success can still feel disconnected

  • How to reclaim your clarity, energy, and presence without blowing up your life

  • The difference between reacting to your day and actually leading it

  • Why a self-led shift creates a ripple effect of positive change at work and at home

Other Core Topics

Amplify Your Influence

Because Brand Is Influence

Before you speak, you are already felt.

In the room. On screen. In the silence before you say a word.

Your presence, your energy, your inner state. All of it lands before your words do.

This keynote is about the influence you carry without realising it. How the way you show up shapes how you are trusted, remembered, and followed. Not through performance or polish. Through presence.

Real influence starts from the inside out.

Busy Is Not A Badge of Honour

Redefining Success Without Exhaustion

Busy has become the answer to everything.

How are you? Busy. How's business? Busy. How do you feel? Honestly... exhausted.

We glorified busyness. And somewhere along the way, depletion started wearing the mask of dedication.

This keynote calls it out. The cost of running on full. The hidden price of always being on. And what it actually takes to lead well, decide well, and show up well in a world that never slows down.

This is not about doing less. It is about leading better.

People Do Business with People

How to Build a Personal Brand That Actually Opens Doors

You can have the best service in the room and still be the best kept secret.

In a world of noise, algorithms, and AI-generated everything, the thing that cuts through is not a better logo or a slicker website.

It is you. Your voice. Your reputation. The way people feel when they encounter your name.

The question is, are you shaping it?

Because in business, how you are known is as important as what you do. And the people who get remembered, referred, and chosen are not always the most qualified. They are the most present.

Your brand is not what you say about yourself. It is what people feel when they think of you.
