Invite me to speak on your stage.
Or in your boardroom. Or your podcast studio. I lead conversations around helping founders, CEOs and teams building businesses that scale. I’m not here to use fancy jargon or set unrealistic expectations.
I speak to what actually happens inside growing businesses:
the team decisions
leadership shifts; and
support structures that determine whether a business scales well or collapses under pressure.
I’m here to share real insights from my own lived experience building, leading and supporting high-performing teams across hundreds of businesses.
Hi, I'm Jess Whatman.
Founder of Australia's #1 rated Virtual Assistant agency, AgentSync and the host of Built to Lead, where I talk with founders and CEOs about building high-performing teams, modern leadership and scaling their businesses properly. My work sits at the intersection of leadership, delegation and team design.
If you're looking for practical insight, lived experience and real-talk that go beyond
surface-level business advice, I'd love to be part of the conversation.
My favourite topics include:
Everything I share comes back to three principles.
These principles shape every conversation I lead, whether it’s a keynote, a boardroom session or a podcast interview.
They’re practical, honest and built for leaders who are already in motion and want to scale properly.
If your audience is past “how do I start” and asking “how do I scale properly,” this is the conversation they need.
The best
audiences for me:
Founders and CEOs of scaling businesses.
Leadership teams navigating growth and complexity.
Operators managing people, systems and performance
Event audiences beyond beginner business content.
Clear ways to structure teams for growth.
Better delegation decisions at a leadership level.
A sharper understanding of where CEOs and founders get stuck.
Practical frameworks they can apply immediately.
A new perspective on building support without compromising quality.
Business conferences and leadership events
Executive offsites and team days
Panels and fireside chats
Podcasts and media interviews
