World’s only economist turned storyteller and one of the top storytellers globally
Yamini Naidu is a leading global expert in business storytelling and the world’s only economist turned business storyteller. She works with business leaders from Fortune 500 and ASX 100 companies and entrepreneurs from all over the world helping them move from spreadsheets to stories.
Rated among the top three business storytellers globally, Yamini is a highly acclaimed speaker, mentor and best selling author. She informs, inspires and entertains audiences all over the world with her practical business insights and fresh ideas.
Yamini herself has held senior leadership roles and consistently kicked it out of the ball park with her engagement scores using the power of storytelling. An economist by training (please don’t hold that against her) she has helped clients achieve significant business results, such as increasing employee engagement, leading organisational change, winning multi million dollar tenders and increasing sales …all through the power of business storytelling.
She believes that whatever you are trying to achieve in business, storytelling can help you get there and in fact guarantees that!
"Without a doubt the best conference in Australia with a delightful mix of creativity and big thinking bringing together an eclectic group of industry, community and education leaders. Once again, I’ve come away enthused by new ideas, more aware of future trends, and heartened by the kindness of humanity. We all have a role to play and it should be a collective one." Kerry Anderson, Founder of Operation Next Gen
"Conferences are boring. Creative Innovation is more like a rodeo for ideas, and you are guaranteed to leave wanting to make the world better for everyone." Andrew Despi, A.kin
"Kudos to Tania for organising the the 2019 CI Conference in Melbourne - it is the best I have attended so far. All the speakers and sessions were very well-planned.

Your effort in this space has truly made Melbourne a global innovation and entrepreneurship hub." Danny Ong, Deakin University

"Creative Innovation 2019 was one of the most well-organised events I’ve ever taken part in. From beginning to the end, every detail had been planned through and taken care of. Secondly, are the production values. As a result, it was possible to attend all the sessions without suffering conference burn-out, happy in the knowledge that the next piece of content was guaranteed to delight and challenge the senses."
