Your last keynote speaker got polite applause and a room full of people checking email by slide four. The feedback said "nice." Nobody mentioned it Monday.

I'm the opposite of that.

I'm Alexia Georghiou — an interactive keynote speaker who designs experiential sessions where audiences participate, connect, and leave with tools they use the next morning. Not inspiration that fades by lunch. Tools.

I use Happiness Habits Method to turn passive listeners into active participants. Event planners book me because something actually shifts in the room — and people talk about it after.

I don't show up with a pre-packaged talk and swap your company name on slide one. I ask what your people are actually facing. Then I build the session around that.

My keynotes and workshops move rooms on:

→ Employee engagement and workplace wellbeing
→ Executive presence and communication under pressure
→ Technostress, burnout, and the human cost of always-on culture
→ The future of work — and the skills AI can't automate
→ Human connection, trust, and the listening deficit in leadership
→ Happiness habits that drive performance and retention

I've delivered keynotes and talks at SHRM25 in San Diego, SHRM Talent in Nashville and Dallas, the University for Peace (UPEACE) Executive Education in Costa Rica, and the 28th Annual SIOPSA Conference in Pretoria, South Africa. I teach executive presence at the University of Tennessee.

I'm the author of The Future of Work is Human. I'm the founder of the Knoxville Happiness Coalition — a SHRM Recertification Provider offering PDCs for SHRM-CP® and SHRM-SCP® — and the World Happiness Fellowship, an annual gathering of leaders and practitioners exploring what it means to flourish at work and in life.

Here's what I believe: As AI automates everything that can be automated, we will be left standing as human beings. The organizations that thrive won't have the best tech stack. They'll have the best listeners. The most present leaders. The people who stayed human on purpose.

Your audience won't say "nice." They'll say "when can she come back?"
