Jade Simmons: Unleashing Bold Leadership Through Transformational Keynotes

A Maverick Mindset for Modern Leadership

In today’s fast-evolving business world, innovation alone isn’t enough—organisations need bold thinkers, purpose-led leaders, and teams energised to make meaningful impact. Jade Simmons delivers the spark that ignites these qualities through high-octane, transformational keynotes that are unlike anything your audience has experienced.

Described as a “musical force of nature” by Yamaha Music and “Classical Music’s No. 1 Maverick”, Jade fuses her concert artistry with dynamic storytelling and strategic mindset shifts. Her performances go far beyond the piano—each experience is crafted to challenge assumptions, elevate purpose, and activate audience members into becoming the biggest, boldest versions of themselves.

Jade is the CEO of Jade Media Global, a pioneering live experience and global content distribution company specialising in 360º personal development. Her talks deliver both energy and insight, making her one of the most in-demand voices across sectors including finance, biotech, education, energy, entertainment and beyond.

From Concert Halls to Boardrooms

Before becoming a sought-after speaker, Jade Simmons carved out an extraordinary career as a concert pianist. A graduate of Northwestern and Rice Universities, she performed in world-class venues including Ravinia, New York’s Town Hall, the Detroit Institute of Arts, and even the halls of the White House and US Supreme Court.

What set her apart wasn’t just technical virtuosity—it was her passion for expanding the boundaries of classical music. After an artistic epiphany, she pivoted her approach, using music not to impress, but to inspire and move audiences towards transformation.

This shift laid the foundation for her signature keynote style: genre-bending musical experiences woven with storytelling and personal development strategy. She’s now recognised for helping corporate audiences bridge the gap between performance and purpose.
