Shari Pheasant — the Queen of Horsepower — brings 30+ years of leadership work, DISC & Talent Insights science, and unforgettable stage presence to your event. She helps leaders get real, teams get aligned, and organizations turn communication into their competitive edge.
Every keynote is customized to your team, your industry, and the outcome you need. Choose the starting point — Shari builds the rest around it.
Communication isn't the problem — not having the right conversation is. Shari shows leaders exactly how to identify, structure, and hold the conversations their teams are avoiding — the ones that quietly cost you productivity, margin, and trust.
You can't lead others until you can lead yourself. Shari walks leaders through the science of nervous-system regulation and gives them a practical playbook to slow down, land the message, and hold the room when the stakes are highest.
Women leading in male-dominated industries face a specific set of challenges — and a specific set of advantages. Shari has lived both. This keynote arms rising female leaders with the language, presence, and playbook to lead without shrinking.
High performers don't quit. They burn out quietly — and take their teams down with them. Shari names the leadership pressures no one is talking about and gives leaders a real, sustainable path to lead hard without breaking.
When your team needs more than a keynote, Shari brings her signature multi-day immersions built for real behavior change — not just a good day.
Equine-assisted leadership development. Your leaders spend two days with horses that read them instantly — and give them feedback no boardroom ever will. This is where teams stop performing and start leading.
Shari's signature women's leadership programme. A cohort experience designed for women stepping into senior seats — and the women who plan to. Built around the leadership DNA of women who last.
Leaders and organizations who've worked with Shari, in their own words.
The two days I spent with Shari had immediate effect on my professional and personal interactions.
Shari brought our corporate team closer in ways we were never able to do on our own.
For 30+ years I've worked with leaders who look successful on paper and stuck in the mirror. Executives, founders, and rising leaders who know something isn't clicking — but can't name it.
My work — on stage, in the boardroom, and on the pasture — is helping leaders have the right conversations, understand the people they lead at a deeper level, and stop reacting to their teams so they can actually lead them.
I'm a Certified Professional Behavioral Analyst, Talent Insights Certified, and the founder of Horsepower Strategies. My work has been recognized by Harvard, the International Women's Leadership Association, and the Jefferson Awards for public service. But the real credential is this: teams change after they work with me.
Keynote, workshop, or barn immersion — every booking starts with a conversation to make sure it's the right fit for your team and your outcome.
