Keynote Talk

Stephen shares the story behind TeamWeave and the real-life workplace that inspired it. He explores a question many people carry but do not often say aloud: can a workplace be a place of genuine openness, trust and belonging, while also supporting strong performance?

Drawing on his experience leading Integral Consulting Engineers, as well as years of men’s gatherings and other transformational spaces, Stephen shows what becomes possible when people are given a simple way to be more open and human with each other at work – with regular team check-ins.

This keynote is practical, reflective and engaging, with some audience participation. It challenges the idea that culture change is best initiated through detailed plans, and offers a grounded alternative: a lived practice that helps people connect, communicate honestly and build stronger team culture and performance over time.
