Lori Pace on Stage
She opens conferences. She closes them. And she's the reason people are still talking about it six months later.
Why Lori
Most keynotes are forgotten by lunch.
Lori Pace's aren't. Not because she's louder or more polished — but because she names something people already feel and haven't had language for. The Science of PACE™ isn't a motivational framework. It's a lens. And once your audience has it, they can't unsee it.
"She didn't just speak to us. She changed how we saw ourselves."
"She doesn't just speak to your audience. She moves them."
Keynote topics
Signature talks
The Science of PACE™
The flagship keynote. Lori unpacks the four principles — Power, Attunement, Cadence, Entrainment — and shows audiences exactly how the pace they carry shapes every room they walk into. Grounded in neuroscience. Immediately applicable.
How We Set the Pace
Based on her forthcoming book. Leaders set the invisible tempo of their teams — and most of them have no idea they're doing it. This keynote makes the invisible visible, and gives leaders the tools to be deliberate about it.
Entrainment Leadership
When a leader walks into a room, everything adjusts. The science of entrainment explains why — and what that means for culture, trust, and performance. This talk is for leaders who are ready to take that seriously.
Custom Keynote
Lori works directly with event planners and organizations to build a keynote around your specific theme, audience, and outcomes. The PACE™ framework adapts — it's been applied across hospitality, real estate, architecture, economic development, tourism, and more.
Conference & event hosting
She opens it. She runs it. She closes it.
Lori doesn't just show up to read names off a teleprompter. She studies your event, your speakers, and your audience — and then she holds the whole thing together. From opening keynote to closing remarks, she's the connective tissue that makes a conference feel like a cohesive experience instead of a series of unrelated presentations.
Opening Keynote
Lori sets the tone, the energy, and the frame for everything that follows. Audiences leave the opening session knowing exactly what they're there for.
MC & Conference Host
Full-event hosting — managing transitions, keeping energy up, weaving themes across sessions, and making sure your audience stays engaged from first session to last.
Closing Keynote
Lori closes the event by pulling together the threads of the day and sending people home with something they'll actually use.
Executive Interviews & Fireside Chats
Lori conducts on-stage executive interviews and fireside chats — drawing out the real story, not the rehearsed one. She prepares thoroughly and asks the questions the audience actually wants answered.
Panel Facilitation
Lori facilitates panels that actually go somewhere — keeping panelists on point, managing time, and making sure the audience gets value from every voice on stage.
Workshops
Half-day & full-day
Retreats
