SPEAKER BIOGRAPHY
Juliet Funt is the owner and founder of WhiteSpace at Work and is a warrior in the battle against reactive busyness. It is her mission and that of her team to unearth the potential of companies by unburdening their talent. With thought-provoking content and immediately-actionable tools, she has become a nationally-recognized expert in coping with the Age of Overload in which we all live and work.
Juliet helps attendees learn the pivotal difference between meaningless activity and true productivity. She teaches a streamlined method for personal process improvement, leading to more creativity and engagement. She helps executives, managers and teams answer the critical question, “What thoughts deserve my full attention today?”
Incredibly intuitive, Juliet successfully blends highly-customized content with a keen understanding of clients’ needs in her programs and consulting work. Yet beneath her powerful assets, she is both authentic and accessible. As a busy corporate speaker and consultant, business owner, wife and mother of three young boys, she practices on a daily basis the WhiteSpace concept she shares with clients.
A WhiteSpace keynote or workshop is a guaranteed success for all involved. For leadership, who will find fresh ways of thinking about execution, legacy and culture. For the front line, who will be given immediately applicable tools to unburden themselves from the low value avalanche that hits them every day. And of course for the meeting planner or executive who will get all of the credit for sourcing this winner of a program.
The smarter and more type-A the attendees the more they will identify with, and learn from the WhiteSpace body of content and set of tools. And the icing on the cake is that this session will be fast paced and even fun. You won’t check your email the whole time. All WhiteSpace keynotes and workshops are presented by our vibrant and insightful CEO Juliet Funt.

FEED THE FIRE
HOW TAKING A MINUTE TO THINK CHANGES THE NATURE OF WORK
Do you wish you could stop the mayhem of work and life for a brief moment and just take a minute? Do you sense you could contribute more if there was a little more room in the day? Many people feel this way, but taking a restorative pause has felt impossible—until now.
You’re not alone in yearning for freedom from constant reactivity. Today’s global workforce is so fried that it belongs in the food court of a county fair. We’re relentlessly behind the curve, dousing fires everywhere, and our 3 a.m. insomnia provides the day’s only unscheduled time to think.
What we need again in our lives is the missing element of white space—short periods of open, unscheduled time that, when recaptured, change the very nature of work. White space is the stepping back, the strategic pause, and the oxygen that allows the sparks of our efforts to catch fire. It’s yours to reclaim, and this session will show you how.
In this lively session based on Juliet Funt’s new book, A Minute to Think, you’ll receive the permission, framework, and direction you need to regain control of your overloaded, caffeinated, inbox-worshiping workday and find a precious minute. Using memorable stories and razor-sharp instruction, Juliet will help you rediscover the meaning of your work, the way out of burnout, and the liberty of your time.
THE NEXT NORMAL HOW TO UNIFY LOCATION-HYBRID TEAMS
As many of us, but not all of us, return to the office — our workflow had begun to involve location-varied teams as never before.
The key to thriving in this new environment will be a focus not on where people work but on how. Teams that have common language, mindsets, and practices will transcend their differences in setting. Others will struggle without these commonalities. It is actually possible for teams to come together around all sorts of norms that support them regardless of where they work because efficiency is portable.
The way the team makes communication choices uses time, sets boundaries around technology, respects off time, and facilitates work with shortcuts are all portable. In this loving yet highly tactical session, Juliet Funt will share new research on the fatigue and morale challenges that teams across industries are facing as they enter phase two of COVID-19 professional recovery, a phase that will be arduous and devoid of the helpful adrenaline of phase one. She’ll give tactical advice on how to unify around a critical tool called a “Reductive Mindset,” and give your attendees a playbook for success regardless of what work challenges they walk into next.
