Expanding Horizons: My Continued Journey with Champions Speakers

Working with Champions Speakers over the past five years has been nothing short of extraordinary. As someone who has spent a lifetime championing diversity, inclusion, and the power of resilience, I’ve always sought platforms that understand the importance of purpose-driven storytelling. Champions is one such platform — a leading UK keynote speakers agency that not only amplifies voices but aligns with my mission to make lasting change.

Together, we’ve delivered powerful messages to global leaders and trailblazing organisations including BlackRock, Norton Rose Fulbright (NRF), Superior Care, Wolmer and Partners LLP, and Infineum. These engagements have been about more than just speaking — they’ve been about sparking meaningful conversations and driving transformation from boardrooms to communities.

That’s why I’m thrilled to share that our partnership is entering an exciting new chapter. This extended collaboration with Champions Speakers, and their auxiliarry arms, The motivational Speakers Agency and the Diversity and Inclusion speakers agency will allow us to reach even more audiences, both across the UK and internationally. We’re expanding our reach, entering new markets, and developing even more dynamic opportunities to bring the values of inclusion, leadership, and empowerment to the forefront.

In my view, true leadership is about leaving the world a better place than you found it. And with Champions, I’ve found a team that not only believes in that vision but actively works to bring it to life.

“Together, we are not just booking talks — we are building bridges, breaking barriers, and inspiring a generation to believe in the power of their own voice.” Baroness Floella Benjamin

I’m so grateful to be continuing this journey with such a passionate and professional team.

Jack Hayes, Director at Champions Speakers, shares my excitement:

“Working with Floella has been a privilege. She brings unparalleled passion, wisdom, and authenticity to every event. This new phase of our partnership is about scale and impact — reaching more organisations and continuing to change lives through powerful storytelling.”

There is still so much work to be done — but with strong, values-driven partnerships like this one, the future is bright.

Let’s keep moving forward.
