Sarah Tancell is a leading workplace neurodiversity consultant and the founder of Neuro-D, dedicated to helping HR teams create inclusive, neurodivergent-friendly environments. With over 20 years of senior HR experience, including a role as an International HR Director, she possesses a comprehensive understanding of the complexities involved in embedding neuroinclusion within organisational policies, systems, and culture.

This dual insight positions her as a trusted advisor for organisations aiming to move beyond superficial awareness of neurodiversity. She has developed practical strategies, toolkits, and training programmes that empower HR teams and business leaders to implement neuroinclusive policies and practices with confidence.

We work with a wide variety of speaker agents and talent agencies to ensure we have the best selection of speakers, hosts, comedians and entertainers available.

Virtual keynote fees in the UK and Europe typically start at £2,000, while in-person top-tier speakers can reach £25,000.

Our goal is to help you find the speaker who best matches your event’s goals and budget. We take the time to understand your event, objectives, and audience to recommend the right fit.
