As a consultant, Diana has helped create multi-billion dollar products, coached boards and executive committees on innovation best-practices, and implemented culture transformations. She brings these experiences to each and every keynote, delivering entertaining case studies and perspective shifting stories.

Diana Kander has truly cracked the code on how Curiosity can serve as the catalyst for exponential growth, and she thrives on helping audiences understand that they can get better results if they learn how to ask better questions.

"I heard good feedback from a lot of the staff, and I’ve heard more references to people’s pit crew since she brought it up. Her message was simple but really got through to people. Diana was a great speaker at our event. Her message really resonated with our team. And it was great the way she interacted with the team before and after her presentation." President/CEO 1st United Credit Union

"Diana's talk was my favorite out of the entire conference. I've never seen a keynote delivered like that. She engaged a room of 700 people right from the start, had us laughing and participating, and delivered valuable insights that we can put to work right away. She inspired us to expand our view of what's possible for our lives, and delivered the entire talk with both humor and authenticity. Everyone I spoke to said how much they loved Diana!"

In today’s ever-changing business climate, your attendees’ roles have evolved far past their job descriptions. They face a volatile external environment – they encounter pressure to stay relevant to customers – they experience challenging workforce issues – and they are being asked to do a lot more with a lot less. All of this is asking them to be innovators. The big question is, are they doing it the hard way or the easy way.

Based on her book, The Curiosity Muscle, this keynote helps members of organizations who don’t have innovation in their job description to embrace and identity as an innovator. Diana will share the key skills and habits that make innovation easier and a lot more fun. And she’ll empower attendees to harness the power of curiosity to unlock new possibilities and drive business growth. Attendees will leave this keynote identifying as innovators and seeking opportunities to use their new skills.

–How to institutionalize curiosity, asking better questions to stay competitive and relevant to your customers.

–How to determine blind spots within your organization and avoid falling into the “expert trap”.

–How to create a more innovative culture that leads to results and drives growth.
