CSP, Speaker Hall of Fame inductee and best-selling author — 25 years, 26 countries, two million people.
Lisa McInnes-Smith is one of the most experienced keynote speakers in Australia, with a speaking career spanning 25 years and a client list that includes some of the world's largest organisations. Her background is in sport psychology and human performance. She has presented to two million people across 26 countries, holds the Certified Speaking Professional designation, and was the first person from outside North America inducted into the international Speaker Hall of Fame — a recipient of the National Speakers Association's Council of Peers Award for Excellence.
Her keynote themes share a common thread: the relationship between mindset, resilience and results. Her presentations are energetic, highly practical and built on the premise that the qualities required for outstanding performance — grit, goal clarity, the willingness to lead and the ability to build teams that endure — are learnable behaviours, not personality traits. She is the author of seven best-selling books plus several compilations. Early in her career she set and met a goal of positively influencing one million Australian teenagers; her audiences since have ranged from four people to thirty-three thousand.
For leadership conferences, sales kickoffs and team culture events, Lisa McInnes-Smith is a safe choice. She brings 25 years of platform experience, a grounding in sport psychology and a speaker's understanding of what audiences need in order to leave equipped as well as motivated. What she sets out to produce is behavioural change rather than applause.
Lisa McInnes-Smith is a keynote speaker based in Victoria who speaks on leadership, motivation and peak performance. Book through Executive Speakers Australia.
Most of us are more capable than we think. We have the capacity to be more effective and more efficient. It's time to work smarter and more efficiently, and most of us need to evaluate what we can do differently in this new season, and what we need to stop doing.
Lisa’s session will set your people on a strategic pathway of continuous improvement by identifying what energises, engages and inspires as well as those aspects that rob, deflate and self-sabotage. They’ll learn simple steps to build courage and rediscover their motivation. Your people will be inspired to perform at a higher capacity by utilising all the resources at their fingertips and capitalising on the skill sets of their colleagues.
This session focuses on personal capacity, flexibility and on-going improvement.

Lisa is a performance catalyst. She steps in as the coach to unlock potential and empower your people to perform above their own expectations. She nurtures the seeds of self-belief and self-confidence. This dynamic presentation will help renew their attitude and skillsets to achieve the goals they truly want.
Leadership exists at all levels of life – government, business, family and community. There is no perfect model for great leadership and leaders are not “born”. The best leaders are self-aware, clear in purpose, courageous and decisive – all attributes of an individual’s spirit, and all learnable.
Leadership is a lifestyle – a way of living, a way of bringing out the best in those around you. This session with Lisa McInnes-Smith is about the heart of leadership and the power of choice.
Long term significant achievement cannot happen until a team of people unite to take on a challenge. In a fun-charged and practical atmosphere Lisa will demonstrate how your team members can inspire each other and deliver long-term positive outcomes. She enables individuals to become better team players (and potential leaders) by discarding negative habits and building on their strengths. Lisa will also show your people how to multiply their own effectiveness by helping to release the talents of those around them. Personal and team growth will increase exponentially as they apply Lisa’s simple and practical steps.
