Lynne Schinella is a conference speaker, MC/facilitator and workshop facilitator whose topics focus on building connected, respectful and productive workplaces. Based in the Byron Bay area, but happy to travel to all of regional NSW, Lynne's signature keynote - Working With People You Just Don't Get, is perfect for kicking off a conference and setting the scene for open, transparent conversations.

Lynne speaks the language of the people. With the instinctive ability to connect across multi levels of seniority, culture, generation and much more, Lynne's clients say that in front of an audience, her real gift is in her practical down to earth approach, her conversational, relaxed style and talent for making the complex simple and relevant. ​

Creator of the RIPE Personality Profiling System in 2004, she has now trained thousands of people on how to work with the strengths and challenges of being an Apple, Mango, Lime or Banana. Lynne is in demand as a business speaker both in Australia and overseas and the author of "Bite Me! and other do's and don'ts of dealing with our differences", with her second book, "Pick Me!" due to be released early in 2020.
