Leadership today isn’t about titles.
It’s about influence, presence, and meaning.
Christine Johanson is a professional keynote speaker who works with leaders in business, sales, and client-facing organizations to help them step into a more powerful identity—one where leadership extends beyond metrics and into experience, belonging, and legacy.
In a post-COVID, AI-driven world, people don’t want to feel managed.
They want to feel connected.
They want to feel part of something that matters.
Christine’s work helps leaders create exactly that.

See Themselves as
More Than a Job Title
This keynote invites leaders to recognize themselves not just as business operators—but as influencers, culture-shapers, and holders of keys.

Understand the Three Circles of Leadership & Influence
Understand the Three Circles
of Leadership & Influence
Christine introduces a simple but powerful framework for modern leadership:
The Self – mindset, identity, and presence
The Inner Circle – family, close relationships, and personal leadership at home
The Outer World – business, clients, teams, and community
When these circles are aligned, leaders operate with clarity, confidence, and consistency—without burnout or fragmentation.
Create a Magnetic & Unforgettable Experience
In crowded markets, people don’t remember features. They remember how you made them feel.
Christine shows leaders how to:
Elevate client relationships beyond transactions
Create a sense of pride and belonging for teams
Turn everyday interactions into meaningful experiences
Build emotional connection without being “salesy”
This is where loyalty, referrals, and long-term growth are born.
Become Storytellers—Not Just Managers or Salespeople
Every leader is already telling a story—whether intentionally or not.
This keynote reframes leaders as:
Storytellers, not just sellers
Experience creators, not just project managers
Brand ambassadors, not just task coordinators
Because stories are what people remember, repeat, and rally around.
The Mona Lisa Metaphor: Leadership That Lasts
Why does one painting draw millions of people to Paris—centuries later?
Not because of size.
Not because of volume.
But because of meaning, mystery, and emotional pull.
Using the Mona Lisa as a metaphor, Christine challenges leaders to ask:
What makes our brand unforgettable?
What draws people in—not just once, but repeatedly?
What experience are we truly creating?
This talk introduces the idea of Renaissance Leadership, embodying:
The Artist – creativity, vision, and emotional intelligence
The Scientist – business acumen, money, systems, and strategy
The Storyteller – brand, culture, and experience
When these are integrated, leaders don’t just grow businesses.
They create legacies.
Creating a Brand That Stands the Test of Time
Creating a Brand That Stands
the Test of Time
This keynote isn’t about short-term motivation.
It’s about:
Building pride in what you represent
Creating cultures people want to belong to
Leading in a way that endures change, technology, and trends
Leaving something meaningful behind
Legacy isn’t accidental.
It’s designed—one decision, one story, one experience at a time.
Your Audience Will Walk Away Feeling:
Grounded in who they are as leaders
Reconnected to purpose and pride
Energized, not overwhelmed
Clear on how they influence others every day
Inspired to lead with intention, creativity, and presence
