Deri Latimer

A TEDx Speaker, author, and organizational consultant, Deri combines a business degree with over 20 years of experience engaging audiences across every sector. Turning personal tragedy into purposeful action, she transforms research in neuroscience, positive psychology, and human performance to deliver a message that is loaded with simplicity and practical application. One of fewer than 17% of speakers globally who hold the designation of CSP (Certified Speaking Professional), Deri inspires us all to create happy, healthy, humane places for people to work and live!

In 2019, Deri was nominated for induction into the Canadian Speaking Hall of Fame, for which ‘excellence on the platform’ is a requirement. A lifelong knowledge seeker, Deri adds extra value to client experiences with certification in emotional intelligence, psychometric assessment, and neuro-linguistic programming. In early 2022, she is excited to add completion of the CEOLC (Contemplative End of Life Care) program through the Institute of Traditional Medicine. Deri’s client resources, including three books ‘Wake Up To Your Habits’ and ‘What’s Your Story? You Decide’, and now, the one that you are holding, provide a rich resource of strategies and tools to shift your emotions, adjust your thinking, and positively impact your results. The books have become progressively more vulnerable, as Deri shares intimate stories from her life with the hope that they will positively contribute to the lives of others.
