Kimberly Beadle takes the parts of business that make people's shoulders tighten and makes them feel manageable.

Born in England, holding Canadian, US and Australian citizenship, based here since 2009.

The show
Kimberly Beadle takes the business topics that usually make people's eyes glaze and makes them feel clear and calm. Systems and numbers matter, but so do people, communication and knowing what to do next, and she works at the point where those meet. Her style is warm and refreshingly honest. Sessions run for business owners, leadership teams, admin professionals and community groups, and the focus stays on practical takeaways and examples people recognise from their own week. She'll talk openly about the messy parts of running a business, the growth, the leadership, and the what on earth do I do now moments, so the room feels seen rather than lectured.
On the day
A microphone where the room needs one, and ideally a projector and screen. She can present either way though, with a slideshow or without, so a small room with no AV isn't a problem. Slides and notes can be sent through to everyone who attended once the event's over.
