Sarah Aviram    

Former Fortune 500 HR Leader, Author, Remote Work Innovator

Sarah Aviram is a former Fortune 500 Human Resources and Talent Development leader with experience at companies like PepsiCo and Avon. She is the author of the Amazon #1 best-seller, "Remotivation: The Remote Worker’s Ultimate Guide to Life-Changing Fulfillment."

In 2019, she embarked on an ambitious journey, working remotely from 12 countries in 12 months, from a tiny family-owned cafe in Hanoi, Vietnam, to a ceviche bar in Lima, Peru. This extensive travel and work experience allowed her to research the future of work extensively. Through interactions with remote workers globally, Aviram identified a common challenge: the freedom to work from anywhere did not necessarily equate to feeling motivated and fulfilled. These insights led her to address deeper issues related to workplace motivation and satisfaction.

Now, Aviram focuses on empowering workers and organizations to thrive in a 'work from anywhere' environment amid the global changes accelerated by the pandemic. As an acclaimed international keynote speaker and TEDx speaker, she facilitates workshops globally on topics such as remote work, hybrid teams, and change resilience. She has created and delivered leadership development programs to over 50,000 people at prestigious companies including Google, American Express, and Bank of America. Her workshops, such as "Get Remotivated: How to optimize your performance and fulfillment" and "Managing Change: How to gain clarity and take action during uncertain times," aim to enhance the motivation and fulfillment of remote and hybrid workers, sharing her research and experience to help people gain the true benefits of a remote and hybrid work life. Notably, she was named one of the top 25 innovators of remote work in 2021 by Remote.

Speech Topics

Motivation in the New Era of Work

How to Optimize Performance and Fulfillment

As we emerge from a global pandemic, thousands of employees want a fresh start and new beginning. They think they needed to change careers or organizations to be happier again – only to find out a few months later that wherever you go, there you are. In this inspiring and timely keynote talk, Sarah makes the case that remote and hybrid work policies are only a band-aid solution for a much bigger challenge: corporations and employees alike must have a better understanding of what will truly motivate and engage the workforce of the future.

Hybrid Work Optimization

Hybrid Hacks: How leaders can design a successful hybrid work model.

While hybrid working models certainly have their benefits, they’re not without organizational challenges. Organizations that take extra precaution to prioritize equality and location-irrelevancy into their future workplace strategy will create a more engaged, committed, and higher performing workforce.

Change Resilience

Managing Change: How to gain clarity and take action during uncertain times.

When the only constant thing in life is change, why is it still so challenging for us to manage it? When we think of change management, we think of a robust strategy to regulate the impact of large-scale organizational changes. Yet we, as individuals, when we’re dealing with our own version of massive change, try to manage it by ourselves without a plan or support system in place.
