Nicola Adams - Speaker

If you're looking for a speaker who truly embodies courage, resilience, and positive change, Nicola Adams OBE is the ideal choice. As the first woman to win Olympic gold in boxing—and the first to defend her title, Nicola made history at the London 2012 and Rio 2016 Games. She is also a Commonwealth, European, and World Champion, cementing her status as one of Britain’s most decorated athletes.

But Nicola’s impact goes far beyond sport. As an openly bisexual, Black woman in a male-dominated field, she’s broken barriers and reshaped expectations. Today, she’s a leading voice for diversity, inclusion, and gender equality, using her story to inspire action and challenge the status quo.

Nicola speaks with warmth, honesty and energy. She shares powerful lessons on perseverance, dealing with pressure, and staying true to yourself, insights that resonate with teams navigating change, leaders driving performance, and organisations working to build inclusive cultures. Your audience will walk away motivated, focused, and equipped with practical strategies to overcome adversity and succeed on their own terms.

Book Nicola Adams for your next event and give your team the inspiration and tools they need to thrive.
