Speaking
A keynote wherethe audience doessomething too.
Sumita speaks the way she facilitates. Even in a 40-minute keynote there is a moment where the room turns to each other and tries the thing — because an idea nobody practised is an idea nobody keeps.

Talks
Five subjects she will argue properly.
- 01
The conversation nobody is having
Why capable teams avoid the exchange that would resolve the problem — and what changes when they stop.
- 02
Promoted, and suddenly alone
The first ninety days of a first management role, and the habits that decide the next five years.
- 03
Presence is not volume
How professionals are actually read in a room, and what can be changed deliberately.
- 04
Composure under load
Emotional intelligence as an operating skill in high-pressure functions.
- 05
Respect as a working standard
Moving workplace conduct from a compliance obligation to a shared expectation.
Formats
- Conference keynote
- 30 to 45 minutes. One idea, argued properly, with the audience doing something rather than only listening.
- Leadership offsite session
- 60 to 90 minutes inside a larger agenda — usually the segment that has to shift the mood as well as the thinking.
- Panel or fireside
- Moderated conversation on workplace behaviour, women in leadership, or capability building.
- Campus address
- For institutions and graduate cohorts, on what the working world actually expects.
Speaking
Tell me the room,and the agenda.
Audience, slot length, what comes before and after, and what you want people talking about in the corridor afterwards. The talk gets built around that.
