Amy Eliza Wong Biography
Amy Eliza Wong is an award-winning author, keynote speaker, and leadership strategist who helps leaders unlock transformative clarity, trust, and alignment. With a background in transpersonal psychology, mathematics, and design thinking—and two decades in Silicon Valley — Wong brings a rare blend of analytical rigor and human insight to the stage.
Her early technical work in enterprise systems and innovation at IDEO laid the foundation for her current work: guiding CEOs, founders, and teams at LinkedIn, Salesforce, Berkshire Hathaway, and PwC through the internal shifts that lead to exceptional leadership. She teaches at Stanford Continuing Studies, is certified in Conversational Intelligence®, and is a mindfulness meditation teacher through the Greater Good Science Center at UC Berkeley.
Wong’s frameworks reveal how communication isn’t just about what we say, it’s about how we focus, show up, and win together. Her signature Spotlight Shift™ helps leaders move from self-focus to shared purpose, turning everyday conversations into catalysts for connection and high performance. Her award-winning book, "Living on Purpose," offers practical tools to break free from limiting habits and self-sabotage, and has been featured in The New York Times, Fast Company, Forbes, and Psychology Today.
Audiences walk away with science-backed insights and immediately applicable tools to shift team dynamics, lead with empathy, and amplify impact. Whether addressing a room of leaders or an entire organization, Wong empowers people to stop surviving and start creating—on purpose.

Mastering Conversational Intelligence®
Turn every conversation into a catalyst for trust, alignment, and decisive action.
What if every status update, Slack ping, or hallway chat could double as rocket fuel for collaboration? Amy Eliza Wong’s work reveals a powerful truth: culture scales or sputters, one conversation at a time. Drawing on neuroscience, psychology, and decades of coaching global leaders, she illustrates how curiosity-driven dialogue unearths hidden insight, dissolves defensiveness, and forges fast trust.
Amy shows that consistent micro-shifts in language compound like interest, creating cultures where ideas travel faster than hierarchy.
This isn’t theoretical inspiration; it’s a practical, field-tested framework anyone can master. Her central insight is simple yet profound: when leaders learn to listen to connect (not to reply) and speak to serve (not to impress), every interaction becomes a force-multiplier for alignment and execution.
Key Takeaways:
- Elevate Conversational IQ: Identify and neutralize reflexes that sabotage listening and trust.
- Spark Rapid Alignment: Guide teams from “who said what” to “what are we building together.”
- Activate Psychological Safety: Embed conversational norms that invite candor and multiply innovation.
- Accelerate Execution: Create shared realities through conversationally intelligent dialogue and shorten feedback loops and reduce rework.
- Scale a Culture of Influence: Equip leaders to model dialogue that inspires engagement beyond their direct reports.

Change One Word, Change Your Life
Release the parking brake you didn’t even know was on.
What if the biggest brake on your organization’s potential is a single word hiding in plain sight? Amy Eliza Wong exposes how “should” is a symptom of pervasive unnecessary resistance, suppressing experimentation, and fueling burnout. Through riveting stories, Amy demonstrates that deleting “should” isn’t semantic trivia; it’s a neurological upgrade.
By shifting from obligation (“I should finish this report”) to vision (“I choose to finish this report because …”), leaders trigger dopamine-rich motivation circuits that expand creative problem-solving, resilience, and greater well-being. These micro-shifts compound like interest, snowballing into cultures where people act from purpose, not pressure; where decisions are guided by core values, not outside expectations. The result? Higher engagement, faster execution, and a workplace that feels electrifying instead of exhausting.
Key takeaways:
- Drop Unnecessary Resistance: Identify and replace language that triggers shame and stagnation and eats up valuable bandwidth.
- Boost Creative Capacity: Free teams to experiment without the weight of unmet “shoulds.”
- Make Values Visible: Anchor decisions to vision and purpose, driving clarity and speed.
- Fuel Resilient Engagement: Convert external pressure into intrinsic motivation that lasts.
- Scale Authentic Leadership: Model transparent, choice-driven approaches that cascade through the organization
