HR, Inspirational, Professional Development, Leadership, Entrepreneurship, Women in Tech, Business Development, Soft Skills



In a world where technological innovation advances at unprecedented speed, we often forget that the true engine of change remains human: identity. In this inspiring and deeply human talk, Joana Caldas Coelho invites us to rethink innovation not only as a creative or technological process, but as a direct expression of who we are.
Drawing from over 20 years of experience in human development, her best-selling book "Do You Know Who You Are?", and the ESTP Method — a practical tool for self-awareness — Joana demonstrates how clarity around individual and collective identity can unlock surprising levels of creativity, belonging, and impact.
In this session, participants will:
Explore how identity is the starting point for more authentic leadership and more connected teams;
Understand why self-awareness is a competitive advantage in high-performance and tech-driven environments;
Discover how aligning personal values with organizational purpose fuels meaningful and sustainable innovation;
Leave with a clear call to action: to innovate from within.
More than a talk, this is an experience of awareness, emotion, and transformation. Because in a world of constant change, knowing who we are is the true source code of innovation.
