LaPora Lindsey is a workplace development expert, author, and keynote speaker known for challenging how organizations define leadership, engagement, and contribution. Drawing from nearly two decades of experience across global industries, she addresses the conditions that cause capable employees to disengage, stay invisible, or burn out, and how those conditions can be redesigned.
Her work focuses on making meaningful contribution visible at every level and reframing leadership as a set of behaviors rather than a title. Through practical, systems-informed insight, LaPora equips professionals to lead, influence, and take ownership without relying on authority or performative visibility.
She is the author of Bottom of the Food Chain and brings a data-informed, adaptable lens shaped by her background in public administration and global work environments. Whether speaking to small teams or large audiences, she delivers grounded, energizing experiences that shift how people see their role, their impact, and the systems they operate within.
