Shivangi Walke is more than just a speaker,

she's a catalyst for change.

With over two decades of leadership across global stages, from Fortune 500 boardrooms to grassroots workshops, Shivangi transforms theoretical knowledge into practical empowerment. Her engaging keynotes challenge audiences to move beyond mere titles to embrace impactful, heartfelt leadership. From being fired on her return from maternity leave, a moment that could have broken her, Shivangi instead found her true calling. This transformative experience led to the founding of Thrive with Mentoring, where she harnesses the power of connection to foster leadership among women.

What sets Shivangi apart is not just her ability to share insights but her gift for listening deeply to the stories that shape us. Whether she’s speaking to a packed conference hall or in an intimate seminar, her interactions are designed to inspire change and foster a space for growth.

A testament to resilience and the power to influence, Shivangi's narrative weaves her personal journey with professional insights, leaving audiences not only motivated but equipped to pursue a life aligned with their deepest values. Her sessions are infused with energy and empathy, making every keynote an invitation to transform and transcend.

Join Shivangi on this journey of discovery and leadership, one inspiring talk at a time.

My most popular keynote topics:

  • Is your life working for you?

    We can only authentically be who we are. The challenge is that we live in such a noisy world of expectations that it becomes difficult to discern our essential nature.

    Our being is comprised of our particular qualities and traits, our tendencies and dispositions, and our unique gifts. But often we lead a life of a false self, a collection of ideas we have in our minds about who we should be rather than who we are.

    In this illuminating talk, Shivangi will challenge you to go behind the facade and discover who you truly are. And show you how you can live your unique definition of a Life of Abundance.

  • Your life is your own creation. You are not defined by your roles; your roles are defined by you. They are a manifestation of who you are in a particular phase of your life.

    But unless you actively work on understanding yourself and your unique Leadership Brand, its easy to fall into the trap of letting your roles define you.

    Every leadership brand is a story that unfolds with time and experience. And many of these stories don't begin because of the fear of letting go of the familiar.

    In this challenging talk Shivangi will share with you a framework to get you started on the journey of creating your unique Leadership Brand. An essential journey for you and those you lead.

    Because what you create, creates you!

  • Emotions drive us to do, well, everything. As much as we like to think that we’re rational human beings most of the time, that’s just not how our brains work. We are, first and foremost, emotional creatures.

    Emotions are the driving force in every aspect of our lives: our relationships, our work, our health, our hopes, our fears, and our dreams. 

    In this talk, Shivangi explores why emotional courage is so important, what we can do to develop it and how we can embed it as a daily practice in our working life.

“You are a role model and showed strong leadership and empathy on stage at the TEDx Talk in Basel!”

Bettina Gebhardt, Managing Director bei Kontx Kommunikation GmbH

  • You are a role model - my girls are going to see a person that looks like them on stage in Switzerland - a country that has very few women of color on stage. You are going to give others the ability to dream and achieve something they feel may not be for them. And most importantly you will teach them about living a 'Life of Abundance'.

    Jasprit Sahnsi, Group Deputy General Counsel

  • You are a role model and showed strong leadership and empathy on stage at the Tedx Talk in Basel!

    Bettina Gebhardt, Managing Director bei Kontx Kommunikation GmbH

  • Your talk was amazing! I look forward to seeing it up on the internet!

    Bret Simner, Teacher at Swiss International School & Consultant at TedxBasel

  • I could see Shivangi’s talk in TEDxBasel and it was truly inspiring. She has a mesmerizing way of passing of fundamental messages to one’s heart.
