TAMARA KLEINBERG
Innovation Keynote Speaker | Entrepreneur | Author
Innovation keynote speakers are in high demand, because in today’s business climate, organizations can’t afford to maintain the status quo. As competition intensifies, it is more important than ever to focus on innovation and creativity to differentiate yourself from the competition.
Tamara delivers inspiring and actionable keynotes that drive meaningful outcomes to companies across the globe. In an increasingly competitive market, businesses stay ahead of the competition by cultivating a certain unique edge.
When you hire Tamara, you are getting more than your run of the mill innovation keynote.
Tamara’s innovation keynotes begin before the conference even gets started with the Innovation Quotient Edge (IQE) Assessment, the only tool able to measure people’s natural innovation strengths and delivers insights and tools for performing at their peak, bringing more innovative ideas to the table, and being a high value team member. Then, at the conference, Tamara’s highly engaging keynotes bring stories and hands-on activities designed to spark the creativity in each of us.
Innovation is the key driver of competitive advantage, growth and profitability
and as the founder of a thriving business, LaunchStreet – the online education and community platform to help people innovate and differentiate in an oversaturated world, Tamara knows what it takes to drive growth and innovation daily in an ever-changing market-place.
Cultivating the capability to openly create and innovate is essential to an organization’s success.
While this may seem easy for companies like Uber or Dollar Shave Club, in her innovation keynotes, Tamara shares why most companies struggle to create a culture that produces consistent innovation – and then shows how anyone can create a culture that inspires new thinking, customer focus, experimentation, and business growth.
“WOW! You are the best and possibly only imagination mover I have ever had effect me the way you did. I have shared your stories and enthusiasm with pretty much everyone I have come in contact with over the last 2 days.”
– Chamber of Commerce Attendee
“Tamara is one of the best instructors they’ve had!”
– Jennifer Baessler, Adams County Sheriff Department Meeting Planner
“I first saw Tamara speak at a Women’s conference. It was during a time when I was reevaluating my business model and needed to find the exact right change. Tamara’s session helped me get out of my own limiting perspective and approach the situation very differently. It is a long story, but this path ultimately led to me selling my company – allowing my business partner (my mom!) to retire. I knew that my local association could benefit from Tamara’s message, so this year I suggested we bring her out to a tradeshow event. The response was overwhelmingly positive. I am still hearing rave reviews!”

How to Transform Your Organization from Change Agents to Change Artists, and Become Masters of the Marketplace

Discover How The Innovator’s Mind Is Inside All Of Us
The innovator’s mind is curious, bold and always working. It is also inside all of us, but not everyone innovates the same way. And while innovation has become an organizational mandate and critical job description, we expect innovation to be accomplished somehow in the same institutionalized way, which shuts out 99% of your people. We then wonder why fresh ideas never get created or, when they do surface, why they are never implemented.
Tamara’s proprietary Innovation Quotient Edge (IQE) assessment engages the nine key triggers of innovation to identify and leverage your untapped potential. The only assessment that can quantify how you innovative, will show you how understanding Unique Innovation Profiles, especially your own IQE, will help your team discover how to work smart and bring more innovative thinking to work and life.

How to Tap Your Company’s Greatest Asset for Improved Performance, Engagement and Bottom Line Results
Your most important customers aren’t the people that buy your products and services, they’re the people inside your organization.
