For over two decades, Nikki led elite investigative teams tackling human trafficking and organised crime.

Now she brings that same forensic clarity to today’s organisational challenges. She enables leaders and teams to:

Most leadership mistakes don’t happen in a crisis – they happen in everyday moments when assumptions go unchecked and critical details are missed. In this keynote, Nikki reveals how blind spots impact decision-making and culture, using real-world investigative strategies to help leaders train their minds to uncover what’s hidden.
The best leaders don’t have all the answers – they know how to ask the right questions. This keynote teaches the critical thinking techniques used in high-stakes investigations to help leaders cut through noise, challenge bias, and uncover deeper truths that drive better decision-making.
Trust isn’t automatic – it’s built through small moments, consistent actions, and the right environment. In this keynote, Nikki uncovers the hidden dynamics that make-or-break trust and gives leaders practical tools to create a culture where people feel safe to speak up, share ideas, and drive innovation.
We assume we see the world clearly, but our brains often distort reality. Through live audience exercises and gripping case studies, Nikki exposes how cognitive bias, selective attention, and false confidence impact leadership—and how to train yourself to separate fact from fiction.
In high-pressure environments, decision-making can feel like a gamble. Drawing from her experience in high-stakes investigations, Nikki shares how to make better calls under pressure, spot deception, and challenge surface-level thinking – even when the information is incomplete.
Nikki’s keynote and workshop were phenomenal – insightful, energising, and deeply engaging. She created a safe space where everyone discovered something new about themselves. I was so impressed – I invited her back to speak at our International Women’s Day panel. Her message on self-belief struck a powerful chord and left us all inspired and uplifted. I highly recommend her to any organisation looking for a speaker who truly makes an impact.
Nikki delivered a workshop to our team of Paediatric Doctors. It’s been a lightbulb moment for us as a team. It has helped us to understand each other’s strengths & blind spots for the first time! Since the workshop, we have been on fire! I would highly recommend Nikki!
