Weirong Li is a global keynote speaker on leadership communication and emotional intelligence, helping leaders create cultures of clarity and psychological safety in a time of loneliness, misinformation, and rapid change. A Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree, she brings a strong perspective on Gen Z and cross‑generational communication, grounded in UN‑aligned research on how young people communicate in times of anxiety and overload.
Drawing on her work with the United Nations, the World Economic Forum’s Global Shapers, and organisations across Europe, North America, and Asia, Weirong translates complex themes like intercultural communication, hybrid work, and next‑generation expectations into practical tools leaders can use immediately. Her C.L.A.R.I.T.Y. framework offers a simple checklist leaders use to make their communication clearer, more human, and less likely to trigger defensiveness.
A TEDx speaker and media contributor, Weirong has spoken for audiences at the UN, COP28, international universities, and global conferences. Fluent in Chinese, German, English, and Hungarian, she combines story‑driven content with actionable techniques that resonate with senior executives and emerging leaders alike.

"I had the privilege to organise a workshop with Weirong Li, where she spoke about the value of storytelling in bridging cultural gaps. She is an engaging speaker who easily merges her personal story with relevant content. This workshop would be valuable in a variety of contexts, both professional and educational as well as in personal development.

We would be delighted to have Weirong back for future talks." – Kate, University of Kent
"I attended a workshop ‘Storytelling for communicating across cultures’ and I loved it! The format was great, I learned a lot about storytelling and how powerful it is and we shared very personal and moving stories. I highly recommend this workshop to everyone to learn and practise how to better understand colleagues from other countries/cultures and additionally have a lot of fun!" – Mandana
