THE LATEST: Yvonne Camus unveils her new talk, Leading a High Performance Life, below.

Yvonne Camus is, hands down, one of North America's most astoundingly assured speakers. On stage, to rapt attention, and rapturous applause, she has shown hundreds of organizations how ordinary people, such as herself, can achieve extraordinary things. A deeply relatable speaker, Camus interweaves her personal experiences -- three children, two decades as a business executive, a long athletic career -- into revelatory keynotes on human performance. It is simply impossible to overstate her impact on audiences.

Camus was a participant in the Eco-Challenge, the world championship of adventure racing conceived by Mark Burnett of Survivor fame. (Hers was the first rookie team to complete the grueling competition.) Punchy, deeply moving, and often humorous, Camus draws on her experiences to show you how to rise to the challenges of training, preparation, and execution. In the process, she helps you to see -- and to realize -- the potential for greatness in yourself, in your co-workers, and in your entire organization.

Yvonne Camus Speech Topics

Leading a High Performance Life

Yvonne Camus delivers a talk that will make you rethink workplace pressures, stress, and what it means to lead a high performance life. Despite daunting challenges, it is possible -- in fact, it is absolutely necessary -- to achieve high performance living. Stress, relentless and unremitting, is taking an enormous toll on our health. When our bodies and minds are exhausted, we find it hard to produce creative ideas. But it doesn't have to be this way. Drawing on the latest from nutrition, exercise, relaxation, and mindset -- the four pillars of health -- Camus presents a deeply relatable talk, full of effective real life strategies: the One Minute Meditation, the Mindful Eating Plan, and others. More than just a handful of tips on how to "reduce stress," this absorbing talk will help audiences fully incorporate healthy, high performance into every aspect of their lives.

Inside Eco-Challenge: Lessons for Survival in Life and Business

Yvonne Camus, a successful team member in Discovery Channel's "Eco Challenge" adventure race, shares with us her conviction that ordinary people (like herself) can achieve extraordinary things--if they know the true ingredients of success: teamwork, commitment and enthusiasm for life. Hear how her rookie team of amateur athletes used communication skills, respect for one another, and practical savvy to become the first inexperienced team to complete the gruelling competition--surprising challenge-designer Mark Burnett of Survivor fame. With amazing visuals and lots of funny, insightful stories, Yvonne will help us see the potential for greatness in ourselves, in our co-workers, and in our organization.

GAYLE LEMMON at TEDxWOMEN

"If you're going to talk about jobs, then you have to talk about entrepreneurs," says Gayle Tzemach Lemmon. "And if you're talking about entrepreneurs in conflict and post-conflict settings, then you must talk about women." Lemmon is the author of the New York Times bestselling book The Dressmaker of Khair Khana and a Contributing Editor-at-Large for Newsweek and The Daily Beast. She has devoted her life to shedding light on the resiliency of female entrepreneurs, and their remarkable power to reshape local economies. By recognizing and investing in these female breadwinners, Lemmon says, we can help grow economies of all development levels around the world.
