The client was preparing for a milestone moment which is their first global in-person convention in six years. For an organisation spread across continents and cultures, this wasn’t just another event. It was a long-awaited opportunity to bring everyone together, in one room, with one shared purpose. The theme of the convention was “One CMA”, which is a call to unity, renewed energy, and collective ambition. The goal was to reignite a sense of belonging and shared identity across their multicultural, cross-functional workforce.
To set the tone, they needed more than a standard welcome speech or a motivational talk. They wanted a keynote that would speak to the heart of who they were becoming as a global team. It needed to inspire, yes—but without the fluff or empty catchphrases. The client was clear: no references to the pandemic, no overused metaphors, and no superficial feel-good messages. They were looking for something real, something that would resonate with professionals at every level, from seasoned leaders to newer team members attending their first convention.
The speaker had to strike a delicate balance: someone who could hold the room with credibility, but also connect on a human level. Someone who could move seamlessly between humour and depth, and who could navigate the nuance of cultural sensitivity while keeping the audience energised. With participants flying in from multiple countries and representing a wide range of functions—from finance to operations to client service—the keynote needed to be inclusive, dynamic, and most importantly, memorable.
Our team was genuinely inspired. The speaker delivered exactly what we were hoping for—energy, depth, and clarity. He got the crowd thinking, laughing, and moving. A fantastic close to our convention in Bangkok.
PPEARL engaged a Master Certified Coach and globally sought-after motivational speaker to deliver a customised 90-minute keynote titled “Winning Together as One CMA.”
The session was designed to:
Inspire a sense of shared purpose and optimism about the future
• Introduce accessible frameworks (like the SCARF model) for navigating uncertainty
• Use storytelling, energisers, and small-group reflection to encourage interaction
• Drive alignment and emotional connection across global offices
The talk struck a balance between uplifting, practical, and thought-provoking—delivered with humour, clarity, and confidence.
The session delivered exactly what the client envisioned: momentum. Participants left energised, aligned, and committed to the idea of “One CMA.” The energy in the room was palpable—people were laughing, reflecting, and connecting in ways that transcended function and geography.
The client was particularly impressed by how seamlessly the speaker adapted to the diverse room. With attendees from multiple cultures, roles, and generations, it could have been easy for some to tune out. But instead, the keynote created an atmosphere where everyone felt welcome to engage, whether that meant speaking up, laughing along, or simply taking a quiet moment to reflect. The speaker’s ability to distil complex ideas into simple, memorable stories made the session accessible to all, regardless of background or seniority. It was a reminder that the right message, delivered with clarity and heart, can cut across every line and bring people together in a way that lasts beyond the moment.
