Speaker profile: Shaily Sodha-Carr

Shaily supports organisations operating in complex, high pressure environments to lead people through sustained change. Her work focuses on helping leaders communicate with clarity and intent when certainty is limited and priorities are competing.

She brings a strong understanding of how communication shapes behaviour, decision making and culture. Her approach is informed by behavioural science, focusing on how people interpret information, respond to uncertainty and take action when under pressure.

Shaily works closely with trustees, sponsors and senior leaders in situations where technical delivery alone is not enough. She helps shape the messages, mindsets and cultural conditions that enable resilience, engagement and performance over time, particularly in environments where pressure is ongoing rather than temporary.

Known for translating complexity into clear direction, Shaily brings a practical, human lens to leadership. She is particularly focused on how communication helps change land, supporting leaders to cut through noise, build belief and create environments where people feel informed, empowered and motivated to perform. She brings real world insight from what she sees working and failing across organisations dealing with relentless change.
